Marcus Aurelius

121-180 Ancient Rome

Known as one of the 'Five Good Emperors', Marcus Aurelius was a Stoic philosopher and a respected ruler of the Roman Empire. He is remembered not only for his efficient and balanced governance, but also his profound insights on philosophy, particularly Stoicism, that were penned down in his personal writings, known as the Meditations. These reflections, tackling themes such as duty, mortality, and the nature of human life, continue to be widely read and admired today.
