课程简介

## 课程总结:马可·奥勒留:哲学王 (斯多葛主义第三部分) 本课程深入探讨了罗马皇帝兼斯多葛哲学家马可·奥勒留的生平和思想。作为“五贤帝”的最后一位,奥勒留于公元161年至180年间执掌罗马帝国。他集伟大的权力和高尚的美德于一身,被誉为最接近柏拉图“哲学王”理想的人物。 在执掌帝国期间,奥勒留的生活充满了实际的行动,包括保卫罗马边境免受日耳曼部落入侵。然而,他最为人称道的,是其通过著作《沉思录》所表达的内在哲学生活。这部著作几个世纪以来为无数人带来了慰藉与宁静。 本课程借鉴了皮埃尔·哈多的观点,将《沉思录》视为“精神练习”,旨在探索马可·奥勒留关于在变幻莫测的命运中实现斯多葛主义道德至善与内心宁静的关键思想。 作为斯多葛主义系列课程的第三部分,本课程还包含一个“奖励讲座”,介绍16世纪佛兰德新斯多葛主义代表人物 Justus Lipsius。Lipsius 是欧洲文艺复兴时期斯多葛思想复兴的关键人物,被称为“新斯多葛主义”的核心。

In this course, we take a look at the life and thought of the fascinating Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius. The last of the so-called "Good Emperors", Marcus reigned as Emperor of Rome from 161-180. Admired for centuries for his rare combination of great power and virtue, Marcus is often thought to be the figure who came closest to realizing Plato´s ideal of the philosopher-king. While holding the imperial office, Marcus´s life was outward active coping among other things with defending the Roman frontier from Germanic invasions. And yet Emperor Marcus Aurelius is best known for this expression of his interior life as a philosopher expressed in his work The Meditations. For centuries many have found a path to comfort and serenity in its pages. Inspired by Pierre Hadot´s idea of the Meditations as "spiritual exercises", we will explore the key ideas of the Marcus Aurelius for attaining the Stoic goals of moral goodness and tranquillity in the midst of shifting and uncertain fortune. We also include a "bonus lecture" on the 16th century Flemish Neo-Stoic Justus Lipsius, to complete our three-part series of courses on Stoicism. Justus Lipsius is known as the central figure in what is called "Neo-Stoicism" - the influential revival of Stoic thought in the context of the European Renaissance.
