"Meditations" is a work by the philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius, written during his mature years in the Koine Greek language of the time. It consists of twelve books, a division attributed to later scholars. With a superb style and beauty, owed to the ideas that permeate the work, the emperor analyzes and outlines the theme of "man" and seeks the path that will lead him (man) to the source from which he originated.
