The Stoicism of Marcus touches the frontier where reason and mysticism meet. It is the best defence available against the problems and stresses of our time. Most translations are literal and arid, but here Alan Jacobs, a distinguished poet, uses contemporary free verse and added metaphors to convey the essential emotional meaning of the text.
