"I relish this feeling of joining some ancient alumni
of the written word."

—Anna Miner, Memoria College Student 

THE ROMANCE of STOICISM The Meditative Journal of Marcus Aurelius with Tracy Lee Simmons ENBE0 5-week seminar course NOVEMBER 9 - DECEMBER 14 WEDNESDAYS, 7-9 PM. ET

Why are so many of us in the modern world so soft and sensitive to the touch? Why has our culture lost its virility? Which character traits have we lost in recent times that allowed those who went before us to endure not only the grand inevitabilities like sickness and death with equanimity, but also to shoulder common burdens that accompany ordinary living and learning? Might Stoicism, one prevailing philosophical outlook of the classical world, point a way out of this dilemma and help to restore our dignity as human beings? These questions and many more we shall address as we read and discuss the informal journal entries of Marcus Aurelius, the last of the “Five Good Emperors” of ancient Rome from the 2nd century A.D.

This class is open to the general public for auditing and to enrolled Master's students for credit.

*There will be no class on Wednesday, November 23 for Thanksgiving.
