Product Information
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was the sixteenth emperor of Rome -- and by far the most powerful and wealthy man in the world. Yet he was also an intensely private person, with a rich interior life and deep reservoirs of personal insight. He collected his thoughts in notebooks, gems which have come to be called his Meditations . Never intended for publication, the work survived his death and has proved an inexhaustible source of wisdom and one of the most important Stoic texts of all time. In often passionate language, the entries range from essays to one-line aphorisms, and from profundity to bitterness.Marcus wrote to console himself in the face of the shortness of life, the shoddiness of the world, and the challenges of being human. He asks the very same questions that every thinking person must ask themselves today: Does the universe have a moral purpose, and what is my role in it? What exactly is it to be a good person, and how do I get there? Life is short: what does that mean for me? How can I get to know myself better? Anyone who is puzzled by such questions or searching for answers will profit from this timeless book, which is both an important historical document and a personal spiritual diary.This annotated edition will be the definitive translation of this classic and much-beloved text, with copious notes that will illuminate one of the greatest works of popular philosophy for new readers and enrich the understanding of even the most hardcore Stoic.

Reviews
"Robin Waterfield has given us a splendid translation of Marcus: accurate and idiomatic, it captures the personal tone of the Meditations wonderfully. The notes and introduction are detailed but clear, authoritative both historically and philosophically, telling modern readers what they need to know. This is the best translation of the Meditations available today." -- Brad Inwood , William Lampson Professor of Philosophy and Classics, Yale University, "This is a valuable addition to our stock of modern translations of the Meditations . The translation is accurate but also accessible and powerful. The full and informative introduction and the notes, helpfully placed at the foot of each page, make this a book that offers much to a wide variety of readers." -- Christopher Gill , emeritus professor of ancient Thought, University of Exeter, and author of Greek Thought, "This is a valuable addition to our stock of modern translations of the Meditations . The translation is accurate but also accessible and powerful. The full and informative introduction and the notes, helpfully placed at the foot of each page, make this a book that offers much to a wide variety of readers." -- Christopher Gill, Emeritus Professor of Ancient Thought, University of Exeter and author of Greek Thought, "Robin Waterfield, a leading classical scholar and translator, has given us a dazzling new translation of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations . Readers: Do not skip the introduction. In hard-hitting and eloquent prose, Waterfield explains the personal and private meditations of an emperor who turns to Stoicism for exercises in becoming a better person and a better world leader. The tension in juggling those worlds is part of Marcus's enduring legacy. This modernized scholarly edition of the Meditations will quickly find its home on the modern Stoic's bookshelf as well as on the reading lists of those of us who teach ancient Stoicism. It's a most welcome addition to ancient Stoic scholarship."-- Nancy Sherman , professor of philosophy, Georgetown University, "Do we need another translation of Marcus Aurelius's Meditations ? Yes, especially when it is so thoroughly and informatively annotated as Waterfield's. The introduction alone is worth the price of admission."-- Massimo Pigliucci , author of How to Be A Stoic, "Robin Waterfield has given us a splendid translation of Marcus:accurate and idiomatic, it captures the personal tone of the Meditations wonderfully. The notes and introduction are detailed but clear,authoritative both historically and philosophically, telling modern readerswhat they need to know. Thisis the best translation of the Meditations available today."-- Brad Inwood, William Lampson Professor of Philosophy and Classics, Yale University, "The best of both worlds: a lively, readable, and engaging translation, supplemented by extensive notes drawn from up-to-date scholarship. This edition can be studied in a graduate seminar or presented to an interested amateur for their casual enjoyment. Waterfield's wide experience as a translator of Plato, Xenophon, and Plutarch has equipped him to tackle Marcus' idiosyncratic musings, and he has improved the text with numerous corrections. Marcus emerges from the mists of time with a clear voice and a compelling vision."-- Tad Brennan , professor of philosophy and classics, Cornell University, "Do we need another translation of Marcus Aurelius's Meditations ? Yes, especially when it is so thoroughly and informatively annotated as Waterfield's. The introduction alone is worth the price of admission."-- Massimo Pigliucci, author of How to Be A Stoic
