This lecture discusses the 20th century philosopher and historian of ideas, Pierre Hadot, and focuses on chapter 4 of his book, Philosophy As a Way of Life.

He discusses the notion of "spiritual perfection" developed early on within Christian thought and how it both incorporates but differentiates itself from pre-Christian philosophies as ways of life
