| book description |

Acclaimed poet and translator Aaron Poochigianâ€™s vibrant new translation of Marcus Aureliusâ€™?Meditations?captures and accentuates an aspect of the best-selling work of classical antiquity that other English translations have, remarkably, overlooked: Marcusâ€™ distinct, varying voices. Thereâ€™s Marcus the aspirant, speaking encouragingly to himself as a diarist might; Marcus the instructor, exhorting and chiding himself as a â€œyouâ€ that includes us all; Marcus the stylist, spinning memorable, quotable epigrams; and Marcus the philosopher, opining about the â€œhuman commonwealthâ€ of which we are all members. This multivocal chorus is apparent to all who can read the original Koine Greek text, but Poochigianâ€™s sensitive ear has captured it in English as no translator has before. The result is a?Meditations?that is as pleasurable to read as it is profoundâ€”a revelation even to readers who think they know it well.
