Description

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient hedonist philosopher Epicurus' Principal Doctrines (as well as the Letter to Menoecius and the Vatican Sayings)

Specifically it examines his discussion on the difference between mental and bodily pleasures, and the superiority of mental pleasures to bodily ones.
