  • More about The Enchiridion: a Stoic's Guide to Contentment and Tranquility

Epictetus taught that all people are free to control their lives and live in harmony with nature, and his teachings are distilled in the Enchiridion, a manual for a tranquil life.

Format: Hardback
Length: 96 pages

Publisher: Dover Publications Inc.


Epictetus, born into slavery and with a permanent physical disability, believed that all people have the power to control their lives and live in harmony with nature. He spent his career teaching philosophy and advising a daily regimen of self-examination, and his pupil Arrian later collected and published his lecture notes, known as the Enchiridion or Manual. This work offers practical advice for those seeking contentment and those who have already made progress in that direction. Translated by George Long.
