Cicero, On The Ends Book 1 - Courage, Desires, And Pleasures - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher and statesman Marcus Tullius Cicero's work, On The Ends, which discusses problems and perspectives on happiness, ethics, and human nature Specifically it examines his discussion in book 1 about the Epicurean evaluation of the virtues as only instrumentally good. Here we focus on the virtue of courage, which helps its possessor deal with fears, particularly those concerning death and those concerning bodily and mental pains.
