Discourses, Books 3-4. Fragments. The Encheiridion
Epictetus was a crippled Greek slave of Phrygia during Nero’s reign who heard lectures by the Stoic Musonius before he was freed. He is the author of Discourses and a smaller Encheiridion, a handbook that encapsulates the doctrines of the longer work.
