Epiktet
Summary
Epictet: Conversations
Epictet's Conversations are among the most influential Stoic writings, and it is certainly the most important surviving Stoic writing written in Greek, next to Marcus Aurelius's Sepsis, since the writings of many Greek Stoic philosophers (Zeno, Chrysippus) have not been preserved. They present the basic ethical principles of Stoicism in a form that should help people to more easily apply them in practice and use them as a basis for leading a good, peaceful and happy life. The "conversations" are therefore characterized by lively informality and are permeated with numerous anecdotes, illustrative examples and dialogues. Their important message is that our happiness depends on us and that each of us has the ability, with the help of reflection, insight and hard work, to achieve this goal. It is not the things themselves that disturb us, but the opinion we form about them. And we can only control those opinions. In order to achieve wisdom and serenity, it is necessary to give up the desire to change things that are beyond our control. Hence, according to Epictetus, one should rather change one's desires than the order of the world ("He does not want what you want to happen, but wants things to come as they come and that you will be calm").
