One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions—a cornerstone of Western thought.

With the fate of the empire in his hands, he tries to capture his thoughts about death, virtue and beauty, which have a single purpose: to benefit human nature. Adapted into a modern, clear and flexible language, Meditations will bring you close to Marcus Aurelius' profound thoughts on death, virtue, and beauty—thoughts that are still relevant to our human nature today.
