«Handbüchlein der Moral» is Epictetus's manual of Stoic philosophy, published by Reclam in paperback (108 pages, in Greek and German).
The manual condenses Epictetus's Stoic ethics into brief precepts: it invites readers to distinguish what depends on oneself, to accept what happens, and to face life with serenity. It includes the maxim that urges one to desire that things happen as they do, and the Greek text appears alongside its German translation.
Bilingual Greek-German edition prepared and translated by Kurt Steinmann, number 8788 in the Reclams Universal-Bibliothek series.
Suitable for philosophy students and readers who want to begin exploring Stoicism.
