Nearly two thousand years ago, the most powerful man in the world kept a private journal he never meant to publish. Meditations is that journal - Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius writing to himself on how to live with clarity, discipline, and calm amid chaos. Practical, unsparing, and timeless, it remains the essential handbook of Stoic philosophy. This unabridged recording uses the classic George Long translation. This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
