An engaging guide to how Stoicism--the ancient philosophy of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius--can provide lessons for living in the modern world
Whenever we worry about what to eat, how to love, or simply how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal is more elusive. In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci offers Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best way to attain it. Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy that teaches us to act depending on what is within our control and separate things worth getting upset about from those that are not. By understanding Stoicism, we can learn to answer crucial questions: Should we get married or divorced? How should we bank in a world nearly destroyed by a financial crisis? How can we survive great personal tragedy? Whoever you are, Stoicism has something for you-and How to Be a Stoic is your essential guide.
本人也是斯多葛派的信徒,安宁处世,和大家眼中的的“佛系”很类似。但同时鼓励鼓起勇气采取行动去争取自己可以得到的事情。比起佛教的因果论,多了一些主动的态度。一开始拿到书就给了好评,其实更多针对的对斯多葛派的思想。读到后面又觉得很痛苦,有种闷头往前冲想赶紧读完...

评分Stoic和佛学竟然有些观点很相似,比如说尘归尘,土归土。我的理解,是不因为身边的各种诱惑而沉迷,不因为害怕失败而放弃尝试,不因为贪图利益而失节。这在当今社会的确有重新倡导的必要。
