The Saga of the Resurrected Shirt (Epictetus – Enchiridion 4,11)
Manage episode 291642606 series 2821125
Synopsis: Have you ever heard of the tragedy of Golden Boy, the shirt? In today’s episode I will recount for you my own version of that tale – but one which ends on a happy note. I’m sure I’ve read these passages from Epictetus in the past, but as I mentioned at the outset of this week, reviewing Stoic ideas is critical for internalizing them, and reviewing them in conjunction with real-world examples is the most effective way to do that.
