Does Marcus Matter?

Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,

He was a Roman emperor and a Stoic philosopher…

His book, the Meditations, remains one of the most popular works of ancient philosophy.

He is, of course, Marcus Aurelius. But what do we know about the man himself?

Has he been romanticized or misunderstood? And in the modern world, does Marcus Aurelius still matter?

To find out, be sure to join us this week for Does Marcus Matter?, our special upcoming live event, where we’ll be looking in-depth at the life and legacy of Marcus Aurelius.

We’ll be joined by a range of Classicists and experts, including Donald Robertson, Angie Hobbs, Tom Morris and more.

That’s on Tuesday, January 23rd at Noon EST.

This is a free event and open to all, and you can register for it HERE.

We hope to see you there!

Can’t make it live? Register in advance and we’ll send you the full recording.

To celebrate the occasion, we’re also holding a special book giveaway.

Simply register to attend, and you could win one of three copies of Donald Robertson's newest book, "Marcus Aurelius: The Stoic Emperor".
