About this listen

One of the most significant books ever written by a head of State, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121 - 180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions - a cornerstone of Western thought.

The writings themselves were eloquent and captivating, albeit a bit repetitive. Aurelius misses the mark on certain points, naturally, but it's worth a listen if you can allow it all to rest within its proper context.

Wonderful narration. A good experience overall.

Marcus Aurelius is very accessible and in some ways his old ideas are still ones that many haven’t embraced today. It was a great listen! #Audible1

I love the books content and the performance. I just personally think it would be better read than listened to. Many times throughout the book i would’ve liked to have read over a part again and “meditate” on it. Pun intended lol. That’s hard to do with an audiobook. Other than that though, good read!

Love it but

Nice to see that even 1000s of years ago, man has the same questions & the intellectual capacity to somewhat solve or come to an understanding.
