Description
This Stoicism Card Set gathers together the best insights and sayings from the great Thinkers and matches them with commentaries that bring out their applicability to our own lives. This is both an elegant summary of ancient philosophy and a route to self-knowledge, serenity and strength of mind.
We still pay homage to one of the most relevant philosophies ever devised when we call someone ‘stoic’ for the way they handle the challenges in their lives with resilience and calm. Originating in Greece around 300 BCE, Stoicism was for many centuries the most popular philosophy in the Western world, teaching people practical advice on how they could flourish in uncertain times and overcome their anxieties.
These cards are designed to introduce you to the philosophy of Stoicism and its relevance to our day to day lives. On one side, find quotations from its leading proponents: among them, the ex-slave Epictetus, the politician and dramatist Seneca, and the Emperor Marcus Aurelius. On the reverse, learn more about the history, beliefs, and practice of Stoicism from its origins to the present day.
They can either be read individually or as a continuous essay. Once contemplated, the cards can then be kept or displayed somewhere close at hand as a continual reminder of stoic wisdom.
Dimensions
Card Set | Stoicism measures 4” L x 2.75” W x 1.25” H and includes 53 cards.
