Stoicism or Epicureanism? Let the Discussion Begin

November 7, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Stoicism or Epicureanism

Stoicism and Epicureanism have been around for more than two millennia. Surprisingly, they are being proposed in the 21st century as philosophies to adopt in order to live a life worth living (a eudaimonic life, as the ancient Greeks called it).

Join us for a conversation between Prof. Catherine Wilson, author of How to Be an Epicurean, and Prof. Massimo Pigliucci, author of How to Be a Stoic, and decide for yourself whether you are a follower of Epicurus or of Zeno (or neither, that’s okay too).

The authors will be signing books (for sale at the event) after their friendly discussion.

$5 suggested donation.
