Marcus Aurelius was een Romeinse keizer, de laatste van de Vijf Goede Keizers, en één van de belangrijkste Stoïcijnse filosofen, samen met de slaaf Epictetus. Marcus Aurelius schreef de Meditaties, terwijl in een militaire campagne; het was een reeks van nota's geschreven voor niemand anders dan zichzelf in zijn zoektocht naar zelfverbetering. Stoïcisme is de houding zodat men zich te bevrijden van het onnodige lijden dat voortvloeit uit angst over de gebeurtenissen die buiten onze controle; daarom kan het van enorm belang zijn in iemands leven.

Marcus Aurelius was a Roman Emperor, the last of the "Five Good Emperors", and one of the most important Stoic philosophers, along with the slave Epictetus.

Stoicism is the attitude allowing one to free oneself from the unnecessary suffering that arises from anxiety about events that are beyond our control; therefore, it can be of tremendous importance in one's life.

The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius is a series of writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor 161-180 CE, setting forth his ideas on Stoic philosophy. As he said "You have the power to strip away many superfluous troubles located wholly in your judgement, and to possess a large room for yourself embracing in thought the whole cosmos, to consider everlasting time, to think of the rapid change in the parts of each thing, of how short it is from birth until dissolution, and how the void before birth and that after dissolution are equally infinite". 

Marcus Aurelius was the Roman emperor from 161 to AD 180, and during that time, he kept several collections of journals that contained personal notes, militaristic strategy, and ideas on Stoic philosophy. While unlikely that he ever intended to publicly publish these journals, there is no real official title, so most often "Meditations" is used because of his in depth writings on philosophy. These journals give an introspective look at how and why Marcus Aurelius' operated as an emperor.
