On this special episode, number 52, we are joined by two amazing guests: Brittany Polat and Christopher Gill. Two impactful voices in the Modern Stoic world.
Christopher Gill is an Emeritus Professor of Ancient Thought at the University of Exeter, UK, following earlier appointments at Yale, Bristol, and Aberystwyth Universities. He has published many books and articles on ancient philosophy, especially Stoicism. He is one of the founders of Modernstoicism.com
Brittany Polat holds a PhD in Applied Linguistics but is currently devoted to the study and practice of Stoicism. As a philosophical writer, speaker, and community organizer, she specializes in conveying complex philosophical ideas in a form that is accessible to a wide and diverse audience. She is the co-founder of Stoicare.com
In this conversation, we discuss their new book Stoic Ethics: The Basics, and dive deeper into the need of the ancient Stoic ethics for our modern-day lives. We explore the role virtue plays and how it ties in with happiness and Nature. Together we also look at the real-world application and so much more.
