The Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius (AD 121 – AD 180) ruled together with co-emperor Lucius Verus from the year 161 until 180 AD. Known as one of the so-called “Five Good Emperors,” his reign marked the end of the period of greatest splendor and political stability of the Roman Empire. He is also remembered as “the philosopher emperor,” one of the most notable representatives of Stoic philosophy. His best-known work is the “Meditations,” a diary in which he reflects his thoughts following the tenets of Stoicism, such as the pursuit of virtue and wisdom and their application in daily life.

L’imperatore romano Marco Aurelio (121 d.C. – 180 d.C.) governò insieme al co-imperatore Lucio Vero dall’anno 161 fino al 180 d.C. Conosciuto come uno dei cosiddetti “Cinque buoni imperatori”, il suo governo segnò la fine del periodo di massimo splendore e stabilità politica dell’Impero Romano. È anche ricordato come “l’imperatore filosofo”, uno dei più notabili rappresentanti della filosofia stoica. La sua opera più conosciuta è le “Meditazioni”, un diario in cui riflette il suo pensiero seguendo i postulati dello stoicismo, come la ricerca della virtù e della saggezza e la loro applicazione nella vita quotidiana.
