Need this in time for the Holidays?
Renourishment for the soul
When the world was emerging from the darkness and into the light of the Renaissance, it was Plutarch whom the great thinkers turned to. How fitting that after this tumultuous year, we again reach for the wisdom of this ancient and yet so timeless Greek sage with this Levenger Press exclusive book.
On Contentedness of Mind
is a book intended, as the author says, "for the real business of life." Taming anger, conquering timidity, finding solace, cultivating our better selvesPlutarch provides an eloquent, useful and often humorous guide for modern living. He influenced Shakespeare, comforted Beethoven and inspired Emerson (who provides the introduction). Chances are, he can help you and your loved ones live a more meaningful life.
Hardcover in soothing, hopeful colors of Mediterranean blue, white and yellow
Featuring nine of Plutarch's
Moralia
essays, each addressing a facet of our human nature
Beautifully designed two-color interior on rich cream paper
Each page highlights a memorable, quotable statement on living
Introduction by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Emerson's 5-star review: "Plutarch will be perpetually rediscovered from time to time as long as books last. I find him a better teacher than any modern."
216 pages; 6 x 9
