Meditations Of Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

This new edition brings Farquharson's authoritative 1944 translation up to date and includes a helpful introduction and notes for the student and general reader. Rutherford also provides a selection of letters from Marcus to his tutor Fronto, most of which date from his earlier years. The letters, which offer personal detail, help to fill out the somber portrait of the emperor that is found in his Meditations.
