Epicurus's Principal Doctrines and his Letter to Menoeceus are
presented in this excellent edition which includes multiple
translations, the original Greek, plus supplementary essays on
Epicureanism by respected scholars. In the 3rd century B.C.
Epicurus became renowned for developing a system of moral and
social philosophy which was popular during ancient times.
Epicureanism underwent a resurgence among intellectuals, scholars
and Christian believers during the Enlightenment era. A prodigious
author during his lifetime, tragically most of the works Epicurus
wrote are lost, with only a handful of texts remaining extant for
study in the present day. Epicurus advocated a peaceful existence
defined by modest living; cultivation of inner peace and
fearlessness; surrounding oneself in personal tranquility with
worthy friends and family members as good company; and the
observation of justice.
