Poster's Of History: Marcus Aurelius’ Big Bitch Manifesto ft. Dr Eleanor Janega
🕑 Added 2024-09-24 09:20:04 +0000 UTCReturning champion Dr Eleanor Janega comes back on the show to tell us about another Weird Little Guy™ - Marcus Aurelius, and the philosophy of 'Stoicism', beloved by nearly every strange LinkedIn Guy. Eleanor tells us about how the 'Stoicism' packaged in airport self-help books differs from its original Greek form, and how, throughout history, and even in its present, secular forms, Stoicism has largely been an intellectuallised form of cope.

And Eleanor I'm very sorry but I teach 1000 Splendid Suns in 10th grade literature. I teach it to them that it's a propaganda tool to convince squishy liberals that invading Afghanistan was good actually but still. I teach post 9/11 in lit.
