The Enchiridion
of Epictetus,
translated by George Long.
It came from the mind of a
slave, was dictated by him
to a student, and
influenced a Roman
emperor. The Enchiridion,
or "handbook" of Epictetus
is one of the clearest
expositions of Stoic
philosophy.
It was a practical
handbook that was
influential in ancient,
medieval and even modern
times. It was adapted by
early Christians, and
gives us a glimpes of
Pagan Greece as well.
Few other works in history
have been so widely read
by so many, and have been
so influential.
Now, Abbott ePublishing
presents this
beautiful electronic
version of this amazing
work. Translated
by the foremost classical
scholar of his age, George
Long (with only very minor
tips of the hat to modern
English) and with original cover
art exclusive to this
eBook, we are
very proud to present this
version as a free
download, so that its
influence may spread in
this age as it has in past
ages.

Meditations of
Marcus Aurelius
translated by George
Long
A classic of
ancient literature, the
journal entries of Roman
Emperor Marcus Aurelius
(AD 121-180) were the
private conversation of
the emperor with
himself. But after his
death, they became konwn
and published, and have,
through the ages, been
studied by men and women
in positions of power
and those with none at
all for the peace and
comfort his Stoic
musings bring.
This classic translation
by George Long (d. 1879)
is beautifully presented
here with original cover
art, a biography, and a
long preface by the
editor, Edwin Ginn (d.
1914.)
Let this work reach out
from the ancient world
and change you.
