　Marcus Aurelius and Stoicism

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was born to an upper-class Roman

family in A.D. 121 and was later adopted by the future emperor

Antoninus Pius, whom he succeeded in 161. His reign was marked by a

successful campaign against Parthia, but was overshadowed in later

years by plague, an abortive revolt in the eastern provinces, and

the deaths of friends and family, including his co-emperor Lucius

Verus. A student of philosophy from his earliest youth, he was

especially influenced by the first-century Stoic thinker Epictetus.

His later reputation rests on his Meditations, written during his

later years and never meant for formal publication. He died in 180,

while campaigning against the barbarian tribes on Rome s northern

frontier.

为了未来，不要消耗你的思想在别人身上，除非是共同的利益引你这么做。因为费尽心机地探讨他人的事情，细细回味别人的言谈、幻想和用意，揣测别人的目的与动机……这一切不过是使你忘掉自己，使你背离自身的指导原则而漫无目的的奔突闯荡。

每个人爱自己都超过爱所有其他人，但他重视别人关于他自己的意见，却更甚于重视自己关于自己的意见。

做事不可迟缓，言谈不可杂乱，思想不可游移，灵魂不可完全倾注于自身，或者过分焦躁不安，生活中不可始终忙碌不止。

因为外表是理智的一个奇妙的曲解者，当你相信你是在从事值得你努力的事情时，也就是它最（容易）欺骗你的时候。

怎样才能解脱自己，不为世俗所累？像一个罗马人那样，时时刻刻注意运用自己的理性；还要带着人的全部尊严，带着友善、自由和正义的情怀去力行当下必做之事。想象我们当下的每一个举动，就是我们人生中的最后所为，要心无旁骛地专注于人类固有的理性，不要让伪善、自怜和欲壑难填等不良品性再干扰我们真正地按理性行事。这样，我们便解脱了。要想像神灵一样自在从容地生活，就必须舍弃一些东西。占有的越多，只会使心灵更累；占有的越少，才能使心灵更宁静。

即使一个人能活上三千年，甚至能活上三万年，你仍要记住，人所失去的不是什么别的，只是他正拥有的生活；他正拥有的不是什么别的，而是他正在失去的生活。因此，最长久的生活与最短暂的生活是一样的。事实上，此时此刻对所有的人都是一样的，那正在逝去的也不是别样的；失去的只是这一瞬间。一个人不可能即失去过去，又失去未来，因为一个人不拥有的，怎么能被夺走呢？……要知道，只有现在刻个时刻是可以夺走的，命中注定会失去它；如果一个人只拥有现在，那么他便不可能失去他并不拥有的东西。

One measure, perhaps, of a book's worth, is its intergenerational pliancy: do new readers acquire it and interpret it afresh down through the ages? The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, translated and introduced by Gregory Hays, by that standard, is very worthwhile, indeed. Hays suggests that its most recent incarnation--as a self-help book--is not only valid, but may be close to the author's intent. The book, which Hays calls, fondly, a "haphazard set of notes," is indicative of the role of philosophy among the ancients in that it is "expected to provide a 'design for living.'" And it does, both aphoristically ("Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now take what's left and live it properly.") and rhetorically ("What is it in ourselves that we should prize?"). Whether these, and other entries ("Enough of this wretched, whining monkey life.") sound life-changing or like entries in a teenager's diary is up to the individual reader, as it should be. Hays's introduction, which sketches the life of Marcus Aurelius (emperor of Rome A.D. 161-180) as well as the basic tenets of stoicism, is accessible and jaunty.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　--H. O'Billovich

Synopsis:

Few ancient works have been as influential as the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, philosopher and emperor of Rome (A.D. 161–180). A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, it remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus’s insights and advice—on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others—have made the Meditations required reading for statesmen and philosophers alike, while generations of ordinary readers have responded to the straightforward intimacy of his style. For anyone who struggles to reconcile the demands of leadership with a concern for personal integrity and spiritual well-being, the Meditations remains as relevant now as it was two thousand years ago.

In Gregory Hays’s new translation—the first in thirty-five years—Marcus’s thoughts speak with a new immediacy. In fresh and unencumbered English, Hays vividly conveys the spareness and compression of the original Greek text. Never before have Marcus’s insights been so directly and powerfully presented.

With an Introduction that outlines Marcus’s life and career, the essentials of Stoic doctrine, the style and construction of the Meditations, and the work’s ongoing influence, this edition makes it possible to fully rediscover the thoughts of one of the most enlightened and intelligent leaders of any era.
