The Stoic Life with Epictetus (Part Two) by Partially Examined Life published on 2015-10-02T13:18:19Z More on the Manual of Epictetus, aka The Enchiridion, from around 135 CE. In this part we discuss more about Epictetus's directives, including making your will "conformable to nature," different levels of Stoic expertise, the connection between controlling your emotions and seeing truth, what exactly about our mentality we're supposed to be able to control, personal integrity, how to deal with other people, how not to be a snooty philosopher, and how to behave at parties.
