Marcus Aurelius is often presented in the form of a gift book, which is to say a handsomely bound and ornately printed book, often from an obscure publisher. We include several of those editions here on account of their clear printing, and for the simple aesthetic pleasure of them.

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus To Himself. in English by Gerald H. Rendall, M.A., Litt.D. London: Macmillan and Co., 1914. —“In 1898 I published an English rendering of the Twelve Books of Marcus Aurelius Antoninus To Himself, prefacing it with an Introductory Study of Stoicism, and of the inner life and thoughts of the Emperor himself. In the present volume, intended for the reader rather than the student, I have revised and in some measure simplified the translation, and in the Introduction have set down only what seemed essential for intelligent understanding of the Thoughts. For fuller treatment and explanation I may refer to the larger volume.”
