Cicero was a legend in his own time for his oratory abilities, which he used to persuade fellow senators and denounce enemies like Catiline and Mark Antony, but he was also one of Rome's most prodigious writers and political philosophers. Alongside Pericles, Cicero was one of antiquity's greatest politicians, and he has remained one of the most influential statesmen in history.

In a dissatisfied world, looking back to ancient wisdom can shed light on fresh solutions. For years, many of us have upheld the Stoic concept of ‘no pain, no gain.’ But in a time when we are burdened by the fear of failure and outsize ambitions, perhaps we should stop skirting around the edges of our problems via punishing exercise regimes, productivity apps and early morning starts. According to the pleasure-centric philosophy of Epicureanism, life can be good without great sacrifice, and temptation isn’t always the enemy.

This audiobook combines two of the most practical guides when it comes to introducing Stoicism to someone looking to get started.

Zwischen dem 9. und 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. wuchs die Bevölkerung Griechenlands in ungeahntem Ausmaß, von etwa 800.000 Menschen auf bis zu 13 Millionen. Etwa eine Viertelmillion davon lebte in Athen. Die durchschnittliche Größe der städtischen Haushalte wuchs in dieser Zeit beträchtlich, eine Tatsache, die darauf hindeutet, dass Nahrungsmittel plötzlich in ausreichendem Maße zur Verfügung standen, um größere Familien viel effektiver gesund und am Leben zu erhalten als noch ein Jahrtausend zuvor.
