Meditations - Tapa dura

The Meditations is a collection of the personal thoughts of Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor. Never intended for publication by Aurelius himself, the deeply insightful prose of this classic text is stripped bare of all artifice. The unadorned brilliance of the perspectives on life, human nature, and the human experience to be found within these pages is uniquely inspiring. His Stoic point of view embraces a reality which requires that all illusions be dissolved. The beauty of these Meditations lies in the starkness and sincerity of the author; the timelessness of this text is a testament to the truths it contains.
