This is my narration of The Discourses of Epictetus
The Discourses of Epictetus are a series of informal lectures by the Stoic philosopher Epictetus written down by his pupil Arrian around 108 AD. Four books out of an original eight are still extant. The philosophy of Epictetus is intensely practical. He directs his students to focus attention on their opinions, anxieties, passions and desires, so that "they may never fail to get what they desire, nor fall into what they avoid." True education lies in learning to distinguish what is our own from what does not belong to us, and in learning to correctly assent or dissent to external impressions. The purpose of his teaching was to make people free and happy.
This is my own recording of Book 3/4 of The Discourses of Epictetus.

  • I would like to offer you, my sincerest gratitude. Many of individuals could greatly benefit researching our brothers and sisters, of yesteryear. Morality, courage, conquest, the drive to make the world around us all greater for all peoples. I won't even manifest the energy drain the world is in today. I prefer whilst in good company, to sip the coffee and share the bread and honey in fellowship. Exchanging ideas and stories and sharing moments of endeavor. I appreciate the feelings you unlock with your passionately writ story. Be well and stay within the light of your greatness. Perhaps as to elevate those who dwell around you awaiting to stiffle your ambitions and penmanship, ready to correct your research with their Google endorsed ideas. I have subscribed and look forward to future amazing content. Thank you again.

  • More than even in the previous books, I just feel sad for Epictetus that he was so traumatized by his upbringing as a slave that he made the practice of dissociation so central to his philosophy.Chapters 17, 22, and 24 are really awful about it. It really is nothing but heartless to say that someone who has experienced some kind of misery and misfortune is only mistaken in their understanding of providence and what is really good, or else they would simply choose to be happy. It seems just like Epictetus's upbringing as a slave affected him so badly that he built up his ideas to cope. In my own copy I have written "Slave mentality :c" in the margins countless times.

    • I agree with you. I think stoicism is a great philosophy for coping with the realities of life when the waves of changes hit but Epictetus seemed to have some kind of Stockholm syndrome with being alive due to all the misery he beared while being property of others.

    • @@dl4048 What I meant is that Epictetus's philosophy loses relevancy when you weren't raised as a slave. His thought processes are reasonable for his circumstances, almost even heroic as a way for a slave to hold onto a sense of self esteem-- but fatalistic and sometimes even cruel when taken as a general rule.
