Marcus Aurelius (121-180 AD) was a Roman Emperor who is also known for his contributions to philosophy. He was a practitioner of Stoicism, a school of philosophy that emphasizes the importance of reason, self-control, and living in harmony with nature. Aurelius is best known for his "Meditations," a series of personal writings that reflect on his own philosophical and spiritual beliefs. The "Meditations" were not intended for publication, but they have been widely read and admired for their wisdom, clarity, and practical advice on how to live a virtuous life. Despite being a busy and often tumultuous ruler, Aurelius was known for his personal humility, his sense of duty, and his commitment to moral principles. He is considered one of the great philosopher-kings of history and remains a popular figure in both philosophy and popular culture today.
