Overpeinzingen
Met 'Overpeinzingen' van de Romeinse keizer Marcus Aurelius (161-180) vind je richtingwijzers naar innerlijke rust en ethische zekerheid in een ogenschijnlijk chaotische wereld. Aurelius adviseert je om los te laten waar je geen invloed op hebt, en te focussen op je eigen wil en perspectief. De keizer zag zijn wereld geteisterd worden door natuurrampen en oorlog. Te midden van deze uitdagingen schreef hij deze overpeinzingen in zijn dagboek. Vandaag de dag leest zijn levensfilosofie actueler dan ooit. Marcus Aurelius wordt beschouwd als de laatste grote vertegenwoordiger van de Stoa, een filosofische stroming in de klassieke oudheid. Tijdens zijn veldtochten hield hij een filosofisch dagboek bij. Deze persoonlijke aantekeningen laten hem zien als een van de nobelste figuren uit de klassieke oudheid. Marcus Aurelius' stoïcisme is vooral een praktische levensfilosofie. 'Overpeinzingen' bevat een gevarieerde collectie fascinerende spirituele ontboezemingen en overdenkingen. Ze zijn ontstaan tijdens zijn moeizame zoektocht naar zichzelf en naar de zin van het universum. Ze vertellen over twijfel en wanhoop, maar ook over overtuiging en vervoering. Uit de inleidende tekst bij 'Overpeinzingen': 'Deze geschriften bevatten veelvuldige aanwijzingen hoe men zich zo kan gedragen dat men leeft in overeenstemming met de natuur. Hierbij dient men voor ogen te houden dat de stoïcijnen een leven overeenkomstig de natuur beschouwen als de weg die leidt tot het voornaamste doel van de mens: volkomen geluk. De beschouwingen van Marcus Aurelius ‘tot zichzelf’ zijn het resultaat van een levenslange zelfbeschouwing en kunnen eenieder die geluk zoekt vele waardevolle aanwijzingen geven.'
