The Enchiridion and Discourses is a compilation of Epictetus's philosophical teachings. Although Epictetus spent much of his life as a slave, he believed that all people were free to control their emotional well-being and live in harmony with their circumstance and those around them. His works are a guide for applying philosophy to day-to-day living. Although many of the great philosophers, such as Plato and Aristotle, promoted grand ideas, they never approached the subject of integrating those ideas into everyday life.

The Discourses of Epictetus are a series of extracts from the teachings of the Stoic philosopher Epictetus. This is the complete version containing books one - four. Each book has been carefully adapted in to modern English to allow for easy listening. Enjoy.

Compilé par Arrien, cet ouvrage résume la doctrine du philosophe stoïcien Épictète. Avec ceux de Sénèque et Marc Aurèle, ce manuel est l'un des principaux textes de la doctrine stoïcienne. Nous y apprenons par exemple que le chemin vers le bonheur dépend de notre capacité à ne pas se soucier de ce qui ne dépend pas de nous. À l'inverse, il devient ainsi nécessaire de s'attacher à tout ce qui dépend de nous, comme les opinions, les désirs ou les pensées.
