Meditations by Marcus Aurelius

“Meditations” is often discussed in philosophical circles, but there’s a twist I’d like to add to the conversation: the translation you choose matters. My top recommendation is the Robin Waterfield translation from Basic Books. This edition is enriched with annotations that provide essential background knowledge, bringing Marcus Aurelius’s thoughts to life with greater clarity and depth. If you want to truly understand the context behind the Roman Emperor’s writings, this edition is invaluable. My book club is currently reading this version, and we’re finding it incredibly insightful and engaging. I believe you will too.
