Reseña del libro "A Selection from the Discourses of Epictetus: with the Encheiridion (en Inglés)"

A Selection from the Discourses of Epictetus with the Encheiridion translated by George Long. Epictetus was a Greek Stoic philosopher. He was born a slave at Hierapolis, Phrygia and lived in Rome until his banishment, when he went to Nicopolis in northwestern Greece for the rest of his life. His teachings were written down and published by his pupil Arrian in his Discourses and Enchiridion. Very little is known of the life of Epictetus. It is said that he was a native of Hierapolis in Phrygia, a town between the Maeander and a branch of the Maeander named the Lycus. Hierapolis is mentioned in the epistle of Paul to the people of Colossae (Coloss. iv., 13); from which it has been concluded that there was a Christian church in Hierapolis in the time of the apostle. The date of the birth of Epictetus is unknown. The only recorded fact of his early life is that he was a slave in Rome, and his master was Epaphroditus, a profligate freedman of the Emperor Nero. There is a story that the master broke his slave's leg by torturing him; but it is better to trust to the evidence of Simplicius, the commentator on the Encheiridion, or Manual, who says that Epictetus was weak in body and lame from an early age. It is not said how he became a slave; but it has been asserted in modern times that the parents sold the child. I have not, however, found any authority for this statement.

Epicteto, o Epícteto, (en griego: Επίκτητος [Epíktētos], ‘adquirido’; Hierápolis, 55-Nicópolis, 135) fue un filósofo griego de la escuela estoica que vivió parte de su vida como esclavo en Roma. Hasta donde se sabe, no dejó obra escrita, pero de sus enseñanzas se conservan un Enquiridión (Ἐγχειρίδιον) o Manual y sus Disertaciones (Διατριβαί), escritos ambos por su discípulo Flavio Arriano, así como algunos fragmentos.
