    I figure that in Rome the massive brutality of a highly successful slave society made many people feel powerless under the merciless boot of the imperial war machine.
    Who could blame people for rationalizing away such a cruel exploitative death filled world?

      Too bad CNN didn't report on it.

      Such cruelty need not be contemporary in order to be criticized, and I doubt that there were no critics during that time.

    The idea that no one, except an academic philosopher, could possibly read the Meditations from start to finish, is the most idiotic thing that lady could have wrote, EVER, in a review. Meditations, is in top 5 best sellers of all time, at world wide level, and it is a tradition between many groups of people, to read it once a year, usually on 1st of january, or for their birthday. so not only that millions of people read it from start to finish, but thousands of ppl are doing it every year. i personally read it aproximately 5 times, and i know soldiers who read it over 100 times. please someone tell that lady to stop living in the desert and come back to civilisation, or at least stop writing IGNORANT, UNINFORMED reviews.
