何についての本か

『語録』からの抜粋と『提要(エンケイリディオン)』。

背景と歴史

『提要』は、持ち歩けるようにとアッリアノスが『語録』から抜き出した携帯用の手引きである。マルクス・アウレリウスも読み、初期のキリスト教修道士たちも読んだ。彼らは神々の名を書き換えて写した。注意:抜粋であり、『語録』の全体ではない。

And yet God has not only given us these faculties, by which we shall be able to bear everything that happens without being depressed or broken by it; but, like a good king and a true father, He has given us these faculties free from hindrance, subject to no compulsion, unimpeded, and has put them entirely in our own power, without even having reserved to Himself any power of hindering or impeding. You, who have received these powers free and as your own, use them not; you do not even see what you have received, and from whom; some of you being blinded to the giver, and not even acknowledging your benefactor, and others, through meanness of spirit, betaking yourselves to fault-finding and making charges against God. Yet I will show to you that you have powers and means for greatness of soul and manliness; but what powers you have for finding fault making accusations, do you show me. HOW FROM THE FACT THAT WE ARE AKIN TO GOD A MAN MAY PROCEED TO THE CONSEQUENCES.…
