The three best-known literary products of Stoic culture and philosophy are probably:<p>- Marcus Aurelius&#x27; <i>Meditations</i> (make sure to get the Hays translation! By far the best). Aurelius was an emperor of Rome; <i>Meditations</i> are his musings to himself in later life. It&#x27;s interesting to reading the internal grapplings of a man who was, to his countrymen, basically a walking god.<p>- Lucius Annaeus Seneca&#x27;s <i>Letters from a Stoic</i><p>- Epictetus&#x27; <i>Enchiridion</i>, which translates roughly as &quot;handbook&quot; and was assembled from the teachings of Epictetus, an exiled former slave, to those who traveled to live and study with him.<p>I strongly recommend all three. If you&#x27;re interested in more modern interpretations of the above, a couple good jumping off points would be <i>A Guide to the Good Life</i> by William Irvine (which was mostly pretty good) or <i>The Inner Citadel</i> by Pierre Hadot (which studies Meditations). Ryan Holiday also has a book called <i>The Obstacle Is The Way</i>, though I didn&#x27;t enjoy it as much as any listed above, to be honest.<p>A personal favorite gem which, found several years ago: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;stoicletters.blogspot.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;stoicletters.blogspot.com&#x2F;</a>. This blog bundles Seneca&#x27;s letters into a modern style of prose and is much more accessible while conveying much of the same meaning as the original letters.
