Stoicism and the Secret to Happiness

What is the key to happiness? It turns out, the Stoics might just have the answer… 

Today Anya is joined by Christopher Gill to discuss ancient Stoic understandings of happiness, how some modern interpretations of Stoicism get it wrong, and what exactly fate has to do with it all.

Christopher Gill is a British philosopher and Emeritus Professor of Ancient Thought at the University of Exeter. 

He is author of many books, including Learning to Live Naturally: Stoic Ethics and its Modern Significance, and most recently Stoic Ethic: The Basics, with Brittany Polat. You can buy it here: https://www.amazon.com/Stoic-Ethics-Basics-Christopher-Gill/dp/1032813598
