Cicero: Tusculan Disputations, Gebunden

Klappentext

Tusculan Disputations is a philosophical work in which Cicero explores how to achieve happiness and peace of mind through reason. Written as a series of dialogues, it addresses five central themes: the fear of death, the endurance of pain, the management of grief, the disturbance of passions, and the sufficiency of virtue for a happy life. Drawing mainly on Stoic philosophy, Cicero argues that death is not an evil, that pain and suffering can be borne with mental strength, and that emotions arise from false judgments. Overall, the work presents philosophy as practical moral therapy, capable of freeing the mind from fear and emotional turmoil.
