ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 2015 R mulo Gallegos International Novel Prize winner and one of the titans in Colombian literature delights us with a novel about Marcus Aurelius and his Meditations. "In this extraordinary novel, Pablo Montoya offers an evocation that conjugates, in a vivacious and dramatic way, the literary with historical information and a luminous admiration for this unforgettable historical figure." --Carlos Garc a Gual Winter quarters near Sirmium, now Serbia, second century. The plage, that has reached Rome, keeps waning the population and the army; barbarian invasions have not ceased; Christianity's ascent shakes the foundations of the empire, and the uprisings and the rumors of his wife's infidelity reach Marcus Aurelius with malice. The emperor, who dealt masterfully with war and everyday challenges of family and love, assuming leadership under the model of the ideal Roman and at the same time as a man like almost no other then, reflects on his life, death, and the limits of power in this exceptional novel. With his characteristically expert hand, Pablo Montoya flaunts an acute historical rigor that offers readers a shocking fresco of imperial Rome and a unique insight into a man that left a mark in history with his lucidity, courage, and humanity.

pokkari
Marcus Norén är en helt vanlig tjugotvåårig kille, som liksom andra ungdomar umgås med vänner, pluggar extra och träffar sin flickvän. Tidigt på morgonen den 28 december 2002 befinner sig Marcus på fel plats vid fel tillfälle. Allt som inte får hända händer. Dagarna därpå hittas han brutalt mördad och styckad. Lennart Norén, Marcus pappa, ger i STYCKMORDET I HALMSTAD sin version av den ofattbara tragedi som drabbat familjen. Han beskriver hur en älskad son rycks bort på det mest bestialiska vis och hur familjen efter mordet får utstå en serie kränkningar från samhället -från smutskastning av Marcus i media till regeringens benådning av den man som erkänt mordet. Berättelsen är en obehaglig och hisnande resa genom det svenska rättssamhället, som tycks ha vänt brottsoffren ryggen.
Styckmordet i Halmstad : om min son Marcus
Tidigt på morgonen den 28:e december 2002 befann sig Marcus Norén på fel plats vid fel tidpunkt. Allt som inte fick hända hände. Marcus hittades dagarna därpå brutalt mördad och styckad. Han var en vanlig svensk ung man med ett brinnande intresse för film som jobbade i en videoaffär. Våldet hade slagit till brutalt och urskiljningslöst och Marcus omvärld stod chockad och handfallen. Marcus pappa Lennart Norén berättar här vad han tror har hänt sonen och om hur detta drabbat hans familj. Det är en gripande och hjärtskärande berättelse om en vanlig familjs kamp för rättvisa och upprättelse i ett rättssamhälle som praktiskt taget vänt ryggen till det lidande som de anhöriga har fått utstå. Man frågar sig hur brottsoffer kan behandlas så i ett land som säger sig värna om sina medborgare.

Scripted Intimacy in Fronto's Correspondence with Marcus Aurelius
In dieser Neubewertung des frühen Briefwechsels zwischen dem römischen Redner Fronto und seinem berühmtesten Schüler Marc Aurel (2. Jahrhundert n. Chr.) untersucht Wytse Keulen die mimetische Wirkung ihrer auffallend 'authentischen' Intimität. Keulens Analyse fokussiert auf die Publikumswirksamkeit der Briefe als soziale Performance, die redegewandte Selbstdarstellung und höfliche Konsensbildung gekonnt miteinander verknüpft. Er versteht Frontos Briefsammlung als künstlerische Einheit, die von Fronto selbst veröffentlicht wurde: Indem die Korrespondenz Briefe und Antworten zu einer bedeutungsvollen, übergreifenden Struktur verwebt, verwandelt sie Frontos Freundschaft mit dem zukünftigen Kaiser in ein literarisches Denkmal für beide Briefpartner. Die Briefsammlung erweist sich dank dieser von Fronto selbst verantworteten Konzeption als ein mehr als würdiger Nachfolger des Briefprojekts von Plinius dem Jüngeren. Ihr Vorbild übertrifft sie gar durch ihre dramatische Wirkmacht und fesselnde Intimität.
Damnatio Memoriae, Marcus Ranfo il Templare sepolto dal silenzio
Tergeste 1313, Marcus Ranfo tutta la sua famiglia e i suoi sequaces vengono uccisi. Le loro case distrutte e rase al suolo mentre si spargeva il sale perche non crescesse nemmeno un filo d'erba.

Lives of the Stoics: The Art of Living from Zeno to Marcus Aurelius
Instant New York Times Advice & Business Bestseller, USA Today Bestseller, and Wall Street Journal #1 Bestseller A New York Times Noteworthy Pick and a "stellar work" by Publishers Weekly From the bestselling authors of The Daily Stoic comes an inspiring guide to the lives of the Stoics, and what the ancients can teach us about happiness, success, resilience and virtue. Nearly 2,300 years after a ruined merchant named Zeno first established a school on the Stoa Poikile of Athens, Stoicism has found a new audience among those who seek greatness, from athletes to politicians and everyone in between. It's no wonder; the philosophy and its embrace of self-mastery, virtue, and indifference to that which we cannot control is as urgent today as it was in the chaos of the Roman Empire. In Lives of the Stoics, Holiday and Hanselman present the fascinating lives of the men and women who strove to live by the timeless Stoic virtues of Courage. Justice. Temperance. Wisdom. Organized in digestible, mini-biographies of all the well-known--and not so well-known--Stoics, this book vividly brings home what Stoicism was like for the people who loved it and lived it, dusting off powerful lessons to be learned from their struggles and successes. More than a mere history book, every example in these pages, from Epictetus to Marcus Aurelius--slaves to emperors--is designed to help the reader apply philosophy in their own lives. Holiday and Hanselman unveil the core values and ideas that unite figures from Seneca to Cato to Cicero across the centuries. Among them are the idea that self-rule is the greatest empire, that character is fate; how Stoics benefit from preparing not only for success, but failure; and learn to love, not merely accept, the hand they are dealt in life. A treasure of valuable insights and stories, this book can be visited again and again by any reader in search of inspiration from the past.
