What I’m Reading: That One Should Disdain Hardships by Musonius Rufus

I’ve been waiting a long time to get my hands on this one. If you’re familiar with Stoicism you will usually recall the three pillars, Marcus, Seneca, and Epictetus. Apart from these 3, Stoic literature is very disparate. That’s why I was so glad to find a new edition of the discourses of Musonius Rufus. If you are looking to expand your philosophy palette in a more academic way I would recommend it. Musionius served as Epictetus’ teacher and the lines of influence are very clear. A must-read fo the budding Stoic.
