An engaging guide to how Stoicism--the ancient philosophy of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius--can provide lessons for living in the modern world
Whenever we worry about what to eat, how to love, or simply how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal is more elusive. In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci offers Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best way to attain it. Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy that teaches us to act depending on what is within our control and separate things worth getting upset about from those that are not. By understanding Stoicism, we can learn to answer crucial questions: Should we get married or divorced? How should we bank in a world nearly destroyed by a financial crisis? How can we survive great personal tragedy? Whoever you are, Stoicism has something for you-and How to Be a Stoic is your essential guide.
放手还是放弃? 接纳还是接受? 追寻还是追逐? 些许微小的差别,已经是千差万别。斯多葛的意义,是让你平静。平静地面对发生的一切。平静的接受你无法改变的一切。平静的追求你想要的一切。 爱情。从来都不是一个人的事。你付出了,并不意味着能得到相同的回报。如果付出,就...
评分对斯多葛学派感兴趣,想研习来指导自己的生活。《像哲学家一样生活》和这本书同时进行,不得不说这本书内容很浅,推导很弱,例证共鸣很少。有用内容如下: 「斯多葛学派并不是让人们隐藏或压抑情感,而是要我们承认自己的情感,反思情产生的由来,进而调节情感,使其为我所用。...
评分一 意大利思想家马西莫·匹格里奇的小书《哲学的指引》,有意思的一本斯多葛哲学简介,读完后觉着也算是古希腊哲学家爱比克泰德的一个传记。 有点像柏拉图的《理想国》,作者想象了好多对话,然后把《爱比克泰德论说集》里的句子搬出来,非常生动有意思,两千年前的人说的话,...
评分遇到这本书是一个很偶然的契机。基督教史近期讲到原始基督教吸收古希腊哲学形成教义,任课老师同期推荐了两本书,一本是我正在评价的这本,另一本是布克哈特的《君士坦丁大帝时代》。本来最初打算看看后者,结果因为自己史学背景过于薄弱,阅读过程太过痛苦,无奈放弃。捧起了...

有点无聊,感觉大都很obvious啊。。
评分The key: know what is in your control, and what is not.
评分自洽>1:更想关注????happy的课题
评分Stoic和佛学竟然有些观点很相似,比如说尘归尘,土归土。我的理解,是不因为身边的各种诱惑而沉迷,不因为害怕失败而放弃尝试,不因为贪图利益而失节。这在当今社会的确有重新倡导的必要。
