Lunchtime Bite - Ancient Stoicism

Lunchtime Bite: Ancient Stoicism with Professor Christopher Gill, University of Exeter.

Can Ancient Stoicism Contribute to Modern Psychotherapy?

In ancient Greece and Rome, Stoic philosophers were famous for offering guidance which could help people to meet life’s emotional challenges.

Christopher Gill suggests that their advice can be valuable today and that there are striking parallels with some modern approaches in psychotherapy.

The talk is illustrated with selective readings from the ancient Stoics.
