    Extractions: Epictetus, who lived from around 55 A.D. until 135 A.D., was a Roman slave who emerged as a respected member of the spiritually-themed Stoic school of philosophy (see SpiritSite.com's Marcus Aurelius page as well). Epictetus wrote extensively on the nature of thought and the process of interpretation. He was quick to point out that we never respond directly to an event, but only to our opinions about that event. "If Socrates didn't fear death," he said by way of example, "then death itself must not be inherently frightening." Epictetus postulated that it was our interpretations of events, rather than the events themselves, that affected us. One of the most famous of Epictetus's surviving works is the Enchiridion ( review or buy , or handbook. The ideas in the

    Extractions: EPICTETUS (born c. A.D. 60), Greek philosopher, was probably a native of Hierapolis in south-west Phrygia . The name Epictetus is merely the Greek for "acquired" (from E1rLKraaOat); his original name is not known. As a boy he was a slave in the house of Epaphroditus, a freedman and courtier of the emperor Nero . He managed, however, to attend the lectures of the Stoic Musonius Rufus , and subsequently became a freedman. He was lame and of weakly health. In, 90 he was expelled with the other philosophers by Domitian , who was irritated by the support and encouragement which the opposition to his tyranny found amongst the adherents of Stoicism. For the rest of his life he settled at Nicopolis , in southern Epirus , not far from the scene of the battle of Actium . There for several years he lived, and taught by close earnest personal address and conversation. According to some authorities he lived into the time of Hadrian ; he himself mentions the coinage of the emperor Trajan . His contemporaries and the next generation held his character and teaching in high honour. According to Lucian , the earthenware lamp which had belonged to the sage was bought by an antiquarian for 3000 drachmas. He was never married. He wrote nothing; but much of his teaching was taken down with affectionate care by his pupil Flavius Arrianus, the historian of

    Extractions: Epictetus Born in the year 55, Epictetus was a Greek philosopher in the Stoic tradition. He began his life as a slave in Rome, but after his release and eventual exile to Nicopolis, a city in northwestern Greece, he flourished as an instructor of philosophy. He opened his own school, based on the knowledge of earlier Stoicism that he had gained under the tutelage of Musonius Rufus. All that is known of the teachings of Epictetus come from two main sources: the Discourses and the Handbook. The Discourses are the more philosophical and academic of the two works. Neither were written by Epictetus himself, but rather by his student Arrian, who states that he wrote them in an attempt to capture word for word the lectures given by his mentor. Reading through them one notes that, although Epictetus falls squarely within the Stoic tradition, he concentrated almost solely on the subject of ethics (i.e. discovering how to live one’s life well), whereas his predecessors had divided their time between ethics, natural philosophy and logic. He believed that the purpose of philosophy is not mere inquiry, but rather to discover the best way to live a human life. For Epictetus, philosophy was the discovery of the nature of man and his place in nature, not for its own sake, but for the sake of living a life of eudaimonia (meaning happiness). Eudaimonia requires living a life that is in harmony with both one’s own nature and the larger natural world of which one is a part. Under this view, reason is a tool for discovering the nature of things which is only the first step towards virtue. To attain virtue, one must also develop habits that accord with the discoveries made via reason.

If then you desire (aim at) such great things, remember that you must not (attempt to) lay hold of them with a small effort; but you must leave alone some things entirely, and postpone others for the present. But if you wish these things also (such great things), and power (office) and wealth, perhaps you will not gain even these very things (power and wealth) because you aim also at those former things (such great things): certainly you will fail in those things through which alone happiness and freedom are secured. Straightway then practice saying to every harsh appearance, You are an appearance, and in no manner what you appear to be. Then examine it by the rules which you possess, and by this first and chiefly, whether it relates to the things which are in our power or to the things which are not in our power: and if it relates to anything which is not in our power, be ready to say, that it does not concern you.

    Extractions: Epictetus Selections from The Enchiridion Translated by Elizabeth Carter 1. Some things are in our control and others not. Things in our control are opinion, pursuit, desire, aversion, and, in a word, whatever are our own actions. Things not in our control are body, property, reputation, command, and, in one word, whatever are not our own actions. The things in our control are by nature free, unrestrained, unhindered; but those not in our control are weak, slavish, restrained, belonging to others. Remember, then, that if you suppose that things which are slavish by nature are also free, and that what belongs to others is your own, then you will be hindered. You will lament, you will be disturbed, and you will find fault both with gods and men. But if you suppose that only to be your own which is your own, and what belongs to others such as it really is, then no one will ever compel you or restrain you. Further, you will find fault with no one or accuse no one. You will do nothing against your will. No one will hurt you, you will have no enemies, and you not be harmed. Work, therefore to be able to say to every harsh appearance, "You are but an appearance, and not absolutely the thing you appear to be." And then examine it by those rules which you have, and first, and chiefly, by this: whether it concerns the things which are in our own control, or those which are not; and, if it concerns anything not in our control, be prepared to say that it is nothing to you.

    Extractions: doi:10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199279128.001.0001 Abstract: This book presents eighteen essays on the philosophers and schools of the Hellenistic and Roman periods: Epicureans, Stoics, and Sceptics. The discussion ranges over four centuries of innovative and challenging thought in ethics and politics, psychology, epistemology, and cosmology. The focus is on the distinctive contributions and methodologies of individual thinkers, notably Epicurus, Zeno, Pyrrho, Arcesilaus, Lucretius, Cicero, Seneca, and Epictetus. Placing their philosophy in its cultural context, and considering it in relation to the earlier ideas of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, the author invites readers to imagine themselves choosing between Stoicism and Epicureanism as philosophies of life. All but one of these pieces has been previously published in periodicals or conference volumes, but the author has revised and updated everything, and has also added postscripts to many of the essays.
