Best Selling Books by Stephen Hanselman

Instant New York Times Advice & Business Bestseller, USA Today Bestseller, and Wall Street Journal #1 Bestseller! A New York Times Noteworthy Pick and a "stellar work" by Publishers Weekly From the bestselling authors of The Daily Stoic comes an inspiring guide to the lives of the Stoics, and what the ancients can teach us about happiness, success, resilience and virtue. Nearly 2,300 years after a ruined merchant named Zeno first established a school on the Stoa Poikile of Athens, Stoicism has found a new audience among those who seek greatness, from athletes to politicians and everyone in between. It''s no wonder; the philosophy and its embrace of self-mastery, virtue, and indifference to that which we cannot control is as urgent today as it was in the chaos of the Roman Empire. In Lives of the Stoics, Holiday and Hanselman present the fascinating lives of the men and women who strove to live by the timeless Stoic virtues of Courage. Justice. Temperance. Wisdom. Organized in digestible, mini-biographies of all the well-known--and not so well-known--Stoics, this book vividly brings home what Stoicism was like for the people who loved it and lived it, dusting off powerful lessons to be learned from their struggles and successes. More than a mere history book, every example in these pages, from Epictetus to Marcus Aurelius--slaves to emperors--is designed to help the reader apply philosophy in their own lives. Holiday and Hanselman unveil the core values and ideas that unite figures from Seneca to Cato to Cicero across the centuries. Among them are the idea that self-rule is the greatest empire, that character is fate; how Stoics benefit from preparing not only for success, but failure; and learn to love, not merely accept, the hand they are dealt in life. A treasure of valuable insights and stories, this book can be visited again and again by any reader in search of inspiration from the past.

Um dos grandes pensadores contemporâneos da filosofia antiga, Ryan Holiday apresenta em seu novo livro as lições atemporais que os estoicos ensinaram ao mundo e como podemos aplicá-las em nossas vidas Mais de vinte e três séculos atrás, um comerciante falido chamado Zenão fundou uma escola na Ágora ateniense. Desde então, o estoicismo tem sido o guia de todos os que buscam grandeza e encontram nos exemplos dos filósofos o bom senso necessário para alcançar seus objetivos. Em A vida dos estoicos, Ryan Holiday e Stephen Hanselman apresentam histórias fascinantes de homens e mulheres que se esforçaram para seguir as virtudes estoicas atemporais da coragem, da justiça, da temperança e da sabedoria. Organizado em breves biografias que abordam desde os estoicos mais estudados aos menos conhecidos, este livro lança luz sobre os hábitos de pessoas que viveram essa filosofia e as lições que devem ser aprendidas de suas dificuldades e de seus sucessos. Epicteto ou Marco Aurélio, escravizados ou imperadores, cada exemplo nestas páginas vai ajudar você a aplicar a filosofia em sua própria vida. Holiday e Hanselman revelam os principais valores e ideais que uniram personalidades como Sêneca, Catão e Cícero ao longo dos séculos: o autogoverno é o maior império; caráter é destino; é benéfico se preparar para o sucesso, mas também para o fracasso; e aprender a amar — e não apenas aceitar — o que o destino nos traz é a chave que nos possibilita viver bem. A filosofia estoica é tão urgente hoje quanto no período mais caótico do Império Romano. E esta é uma obra que pode — e deve — ser consultada sempre.

Die uralten Weisheiten der Stoiker, gesammelt und kommentiert, unterstützen bei diesen alltäglichen Herausforderungen.

Von Epiktet bis Mark Aurel, von Sklaven bis zu Kaisern – Ryan Holiday, dessen Bestseller und die darin enthalten Lebensweisheiten längst Kult sind, zeigt, warum auch 2300 Jahre nach der Entstehung der Stoa ihre Lehren noch immer von universeller Gültigkeit sind: Ihre Lektionen zu Selbstbeherrschung, Tugend und Gleichgültigkeit gegenüber dem, was wir nicht kontrollieren können, sind heute genauso essenziell wie in den stürmischen Zeiten des Römischen Reiches. Holiday enthüllt die zentralen Ideen der Stoa, die Seneca, Cato oder Cicero über die Jahrhunderte hinweg verbinden. Dabei werden die Philosophen stets im Licht ihrer besonderen Bedeutung in der Geschichte der Stoa betrachtet. Mit kurzen, leicht zu lesenden Biografien aller bekannten – und weniger bekannten – Stoiker hilft der Autor dem Leser, die Philosophie im eigenen Leben anzuwenden.

De levensverhalen van de stoïcijnse filosofen vormen de inspiratie om deze tijdloze klassieke inzichten in het eigen leven toe te passen. Wat kunnen de levensverhalen van de stoïcijnen ons leren over geluk, succes, veerkracht en innerlijke waarden? Bijna 2.300 jaar geleden richtte een geruïneerde koopman genaamd Zeno een school op in Athene. Het stoïcisme, de filosofische stroming die daar ontstond, heeft een nieuw publiek gevonden onder degenen die op zoek zijn naar grootsheid; van atleten tot politici en iedereen daartussenin. Geen wonder: net als in de chaos van het Romeinse Rijk is het vandaag de dag even urgent om zelfbeheersing, deugdzaamheid en onverschilligheid voor datgene waarover we geen controle hebben te omarmen. In Stoïcijns leven presenteren Holiday en Hanselman de fascinerende levens van de mannen en vrouwen die ernaar streefden te leven volgens de tijdloze stoïcijnse waarden. Aan de hand van hun worstelingen en successen worden de klassieke, krachtige lessen afgestoft. De biografieën, van Epictetus tot Marcus Aurelius, zijn niet alleen bedoeld als geschiedenislessen, maar vooral om de lezer te helpen filosofie in hun eigen leven toe te passen. Het boek is een schatkist aan waardevolle inzichten en verhalen, dat keer op keer kan worden gelezen door iedereen die op zoek is naar inspiratie uit het verleden.
