Kako ostati smiren kada se okolnosti mijenjaju?

How to maintain inner balance when we cannot influence external circumstances? Professor Vedrana Novović approaches this question through the life of Marcus Aurelius and Stoic philosophy. The lecture connects the emperor's dealing with crises, wars and epidemics with his writings in "Thoughts", in which he questioned his own actions and sought guidelines for action. The focus is on the relationship between events that disturb us and the way we judge them. Lecture topics • Stoic steadfastness and maintaining inner balance in demanding circumstances. • Sense of duty and reliance on philosophical principles in the life of Marcus Aurelius. • Inner dialogue and questioning of experiences as the basis for one's own actions.
