Items related to The Moral Sayings of Publius Syrus: a Roman Slave
Part Stoic, part Epicurean, and even part Skeptic and Cynic, the wit and wisdom of the former Roman slave turned playwright Publius Syrus transcends doctrine and embraces humanism. The dramatic works of Syrus are all but lost - what remains is a collection of over a thousand one-line quotations known as 'The Moral Sayings of Publius Syrus: A Roman Slave.'With a brevity and insight that would make Oscar Wilde proud, Syrus summarizes an astonishing range of human emotions in his memorable epigrams.
