A concise introduction to the philosophy of Stoicism, written by the English classicist and historian of philosophy John Sellars. The book presents a systematic account of the history of Stoic thought and describes its influence on subsequent European philosophy and culture. Sellars outlines the school's philosophical doctrines, examining in turn each branch of Stoic theory—logic, physics, and ethics—along with the relevant philosophical categories. The volume includes a glossary of names and terms, a chronology, and an extensive bibliography.
