Description

Excerpt from Discourses of Epictetus: Selections

The date of his birth and death are um known, but it is claimed by some that he returned to Rome in the reign of Hadrian, in which case he must have lived to an extreme old age.

Three topics are mentioned by Epic tetus upon which the whole of the Stoic philosophy was based: the Desires and Aversions, the Pursuits and Avoidances, and the Assents of the understanding.

The Desires and Aversions were simple affections of the mind, Good always being the object of Desire, and Evil the object of Aversion.
