书籍简介

即将成为《纽约时报》咨询与商业类畅销书、《今日美国》畅销书和《华尔街日报》畅销书!

被《纽约时报》和《出版商周刊》誉为"值得关注图书 "和 "杰出优秀图书"。

来自《每日斯多葛日报》的畅销书作者，这是一本鼓舞人心的斯多葛哲学的生活艺术指南，讲述了古人在幸福、成功、复原力和美德方面可以教我们的东西。

大约2300年前，一位名叫芝诺的破产商人在雅典的斯托亚·波基勒（Stoa Poikile）建立了一所学校，此后，斯多葛学派在那些追求伟大的人中找到了新的听众，从运动员到政治家，以及介于两者之间的每一个人。这也难怪：哲学对自我控制、美德和拥抱我们漠不关心事物的影响，在当时混乱的的罗马帝国和今天一样紧迫。

在《斯多葛学派人生》中，霍利德和汉赛蒙介绍了那些努力按照斯多葛派永恒的美德 "勇气 "生活的男人和女人的迷人生活——正义、节制、智慧。本书通过对所有著名的以及名不经传的斯多葛派传记的组织，生动地描述了斯多葛主义对于热爱它和生活它的人来说是什么样的，以及从他们的斗争和成功中可以学到怎样有力的教训。

这不仅仅是一本历史书，从伊壁鸠鲁到马库斯·奥勒留，从奴隶到皇帝，每一个例子都是为了帮助听众在他们自己的生活中应用哲学。霍利德和汉赛蒙揭开了核心价值和思想的面纱，这些核心价值和思想把从塞内卡到卡托再到西塞罗的各个世纪的人物联合起来。其中包括自我统治是伟大的帝国的想法、性格就是命运；斯多葛派如何从不仅从成功获得了经验，而且也从为失败做准备中获益；以及学会了爱，而不仅仅是接受他们在生活中得到的帮助。这本书蕴含了血多宝贵的见解和故事，任何寻找过去灵感的听众都可以反复阅读。

A New York Times Noteworthy Pick and a "stellar work" by Publishers Weekly

From the best-selling authors of The Daily Stoic comes an inspiring guide to the lives of the Stoics, and what the ancients can teach us about happiness, success, resilience, and virtue.

Nearly 2,300 years after a ruined merchant named Zeno first established a school on the Stoa Poikile of Athens, Stoicism has found a new audience among those who seek greatness, from athletes to politicians and everyone in between. It's no wonder; the philosophy and its embrace of self-mastery, virtue, and indifference to that which we cannot control is as urgent today as it was in the chaos of the Roman Empire.

In Lives of the Stoics, Holiday and Hanselman present the fascinating lives of the men and women who strove to live by the timeless Stoic virtues of Courage. Justice. Temperance. Wisdom. Organized in digestible, mini-biographies of all the well-known - and not so well-known - Stoics, this book vividly brings home what Stoicism was like for the people who loved it and lived it, dusting off powerful lessons to be learned from their struggles and successes.

More than a mere history book, every example, from Epictetus to Marcus Aurelius - slaves to emperors - is designed to help the listener apply philosophy in their own lives. Holiday and Hanselman unveil the core values and ideas that unite figures from Seneca to Cato to Cicero across the centuries. Among them are the idea that self-rule is the greatest empire, that character is fate; how Stoics benefit from preparing not only for success, but failure; and learn to love, not merely accept, the hand they are dealt in life. A treasure of valuable insights and stories, this book can be visited again and again by any listener in search of inspiration from the past.
