Overview

"To relax the mind is to lose it."

Stoic Six Pack 2 brings together six more essential texts for students of Stoicism:

Consolations From A Stoic by Seneca
On The Shortness of Life by Seneca
Lectures and Fragments of Musonius Rufus
Ethical Fragments by Hierocles
Meditations In Verse by Marcus Aurelius and James Blake
The Stoics by Diogenes Laërtius

In addition to these six books there is also:

*Two image galleries.
*Seneca the Stoic – a biographical essay.

Each work has been newly revised, edited and curated for the digital age. There is a complete Musonius Rufus and the rarely published Hierocles. Consolations From A Stoic contains all three of Seneca's consolations – To Marcia, To Helvia and To Polybius. On The Shortness of Life also by Seneca is presented in a brand new translation by author Damian Stevenson. The Stoics by Diogenes Laërtius is a fascinating 3rd century biography of the first Greek Stoics – Zeno of Citium, Dinoysius the Renegade, Chrysippus of Soli et al and there is also Meditations In Verse, an interesting Victorian poetic homage to Aurelius.

'Stoic Six Pack 2' is an amazing collection of masterworks and rarities, a must-read for fans of 'Meditations,' 'Letters From A Stoic' and Stoic philosophy in general.

"This collection is a "one-stop" for those wanting to be introduced to the teachings and wisdom of Stoic Philosophers. This eBook contains an unbelievable amount of stuff that is simply put, a steal of a deal at the current price. I have it as a reference and having so much in one location is important to me. I am more than happy with this and consider it a "Must-Have" for any student of stoic philosophy."
- Dennis Waller, Amazon Top 500 Reviewer on Stoic Six Pack 1.
