po athenach antoninus marcus aurelius aulus gellius

"Krátké druhé století", tedy éra pěti "dobrých císařů" od Nervy po Marka Aurelia (96-180), představuje cosi jako římský biedermeier. Říše je "hotova" a stabilizována, kultura se obrací k soukromému životu a k idealizované minulosti. Athény, dávno politicky bezvýznamné, se stávají hlavním městem vzdělanosti, antickým Oxfordem. Římští žáci jezdí za řeckými profesory. Kultura těchto žáků a profesorů, "druhá sofistika", nevytváří velké filosofické koncepty. Zabývá se praktickou etikou, vzpomínáním na zlatý věk Athén - a jazykem a stylem. Svazek přináší dvojí literární svědectví o této epoše. První je výbor z Attických nocí Aula Gellia, jednoho z oněch římských studentů. Gellius si vypisuje poznatky o klasické kultuře i zážitky ze života akademického i studentského. Zobrazuje komunitu, která se nestará o "velké dějiny", ale raduje se z poznávání a ze čtení starých textů. Gelliův obraz této athénské komunity ovlivnil pak evropský humanismus, zvláště éru Erasmovu a Rabelaisovu, důvěřující v sílu literárního vzdělání přivést lidstvo na lepší cesty. Druhým svědectvím je výbor z listů mladičkého prince Marka Aurelia, který má daleko do pozdějšího stoického myslitele Hovorů k sobě. Mladý Marcus Aurelius a rétor Marcus Fronto, učitel princův (i učitel Aula Gellia), si píší o každodenních zážitcích i o jazyce a literatuře, o vášni poznávat - ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A deluxe special edition of the ancient classic written by the Roman Emperor known as "The Philosopher" Meditations is a series of personal journals written by Marcus Aurelius, Emperor of Rome from 169 to 180 AD. The last of the "Five Good Emperors," he was the most powerful and influential man in the Western world at the time. Marcus was one of the leaders of Stoicism, a philosophy of personal ethics which sought resilience and virtue through personal action and responsibility. Stoicism, viewed as a foundation of modern self-help, has inspired many personal development and psychotherapy approaches through to the present day. Meditations is perhaps the most important source of our modern understanding of Stoic philosophy. Its twelve books chronicle different stages of Marcus Aurelius’ life and ideas. Although he ruled during the Pax Romana, the age of relative peace and stability throughout the empire, his reign was marked by near-constant military conflict and a devastating plague which killed upwards of five million people. Aurelius' writings give modern readers an unprecedented look into the "spiritual exercises" which helped him through his tumultuous life and strengthened his patience, empathy, generosity, self-knowledge and emotional health.

One of the world''s most famous and influential books, Meditations, by the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (A.D. 121–180), incorporates the stoic precepts he used to cope with his life as a warrior and administrator of an empire. Ascending to the imperial throne in A.D. 161, Aurelius found his reign beset by natural disasters and war. In the wake of these challenges, he set down a series of private reflections, outlining a philosophy of commitment to virtue above pleasure and tranquility above happiness.Reflecting the emperor''s own noble and self-sacrificing code of conduct, this eloquent and moving work draws and enriches the tradition of Stoicism, which stressed the search for inner peace and ethical certainty in an apparently chaotic world. Serenity was to be achieved by emulating in one''s personal conduct the underlying orderliness and lawfulness of nature. And in the face of inevitable pain, loss, and death — the suffering at the core of life — Aurelius counsels stoic detachment from the things that are beyond one''s control and a focus on one''s own will and perception.Presented here in a specially modernized version of the classic George Long translation, this updated and revised edition is easily accessible to contemporary readers.

''Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to live ... while you have life in you, while you still can, make yourself good.''The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) is a private notebook of philosophical reflections, written by a Roman emperor probably on military campaign in Germany. In short, highly charged comments, Marcus draws on Stoic philosophy to confront challenges that he felt acutely, but which are also shared by all human beings - the looming presence of death, making sense of one''s social role and projects, the moral significance of the universe. They bring us closer to the personality of the emperor, who is often disillusioned with his own status and with human activities in general; they are both an historical document and a remarkable spiritual diary.This translation by Robin Hard brings out the eloquence and universality of Marcus'' thoughts. The introduction and notes by Christopher Gill place the Meditations firmly in the ancient philosophical context.

Marcus Aurelius (121-180) je neobvyklým zjevem ve starověkém písemnictví. Proslul jako římský císař (161-180) a zároveň filozof. Vládl ve velmi neklidné, krizové době, plné válečných konfliktů s barbarskými kmeny, jež útočily na římskou moc. Při výpravě na sever proti Markomanům se r. 179 dostal až na území dnešního Slovenska do oblasti Trenčína. Byl velmi vzdělán a literárně činný. Jeho filozofickou orientaci významně ovlivnilo studium děl stoika Epiktéta. Dochovala se od něj mj. latinsky psaná korespondence, ale největšího ohlasu dosáhl soubor jeho řecky psaných krátkých filozofických úvah a poznámek, jež si pořizoval během válečných výprav. Byly nazvány Ta eis heauton (?? ??? ??????), česky Hovory k sobě. V nich osobitým způsobem shrnul své myšlenky o lidském údělu a smyslu existence, s maximálním důrazem na etické otázky. Zdůrazňuje v nich pomíjivost lidského bytí, neustálou změnu, vznik a zánik, a odvolává se na princip přirozenosti, na předurčenost všech živých bytostí a jejich rovnost. Hovory k sobě patří k nejúspěšnějším titulům Antické knihovny, v klasickém překladu Rudolfa Kuthana zde vycházejí již potřetí.

This novel biography brings Marcus Aurelius (121–180 CE) to life for a new generation of readers by exploring the emperor’s fascinating psychological journey. Donald J. Robertson examines Marcus’s relationships with key figures in his life, such as his mother, Domitia Lucilla, and the emperor Hadrian, as well as his Stoic tutors. He draws extensively on Marcus’s own Meditations and correspondence, and he examines the emperor’s actions as detailed in the Augustan History and other ancient texts.Marcus Aurelius struggled to reconcile his philosophy and moral values with the political pressures he faced as emperor at the height of Roman power.Robertson examines Marcus’s attitude toward slavery and the moral dilemma posed by capturing enemies in warfare; his attitude toward women; the role of Stoicism in shaping his response to the threat of civil war; the treatment of Christians under his rule; and the naming of his notorious son Commodus as his successor. Throughout, the Meditations is used to shed light on the mind of the emperor—his character, values, and motives—as Robertson skillfully weaves together Marcus’s inner journey as a philosopher with the outer events of his life as a Roman emperor.

It continues to attract large numbers of new readers, drawn to its reflections on life and death. Despite this, it is not the sort of text read much by professional philosophers or even, until recently, taken especially seriously by specialists in ancient philosophy. It is a highly personal, easily accessible, yet deceptively simple work. This volume, written by leading experts and aimed at non-specialists, examines the central philosophical ideas in the work and assesses the extent to which Marcus is committed to the philosophy of Stoicism.

Nebývalo samozrejmosťou, že písanie žien bolo akceptované verejnosťou. Žena mala napĺňať trojicu hodnôt: Küche, Kinder, Kirche (kuchyňa, deti, kostol) a literatúra bola prevažne doménou mužov. K priekopníčkam slovenskej ženskej spisby patrili, po prvej slovenskej poetke Ľudmile Podjavorinskej, aj Helena Riasnická, Maruša Jusková a Mária Jančová. Dlhoročný výskum Andrey Bokníkovej priniesol svoje ovocie v podobe tejto monografie, založenej na pôvodnom pramennom výskume, uvedenej štúdiou a doplnenej komentármi. Vydala sa po stopách lyrických zážitkov a básnických tvarov poetiek. Obohacuje tak znalosti o ženských vnútorných svetoch, ktorých jednotiacim prvkom bola konfesia.Počiatočným miestom stretnutia bol zborník Z mladej ženskej poézie (1941). To, čo poetky spájalo, bol pohyb slobodnej myšlienky. Každá prinášala vlastné špecifikum, od dedikačných básní po rituálne procesy tkania, materstva či vzťahu k chorému dieťaťu.Pohnuté životy poetiek mali aj svoje edičné osudy (Helena Riasnická bola autorkou bez samostatnej zbierky, jej básne v takmer súhrnnej zostave vychádzajú až v tejto knihe). Bokníková nás zasvätene a s pozoruhodnou znalosťou doby vovádza do literárneho priestoru, kde sa poetky stretávali s poprednými osobnosťami svojej doby: Rudolfom Dilongom, Tidom Jozefom Gašparom, Zorou Jesenskou, Leou Mrázovou, Jankom Silanom, Margitou Valehrachovou-Matulayovou a ďalšími. Kniha odkrýva menej známe alebo zabudnuté aspekty a línie v tvorbe slovenských poetiek a má ambíciu vrátiť ... Unknown localization key: "more"
