Keep Calm and Carry On! Stoic NLCSJ: History

Exploring the word 'stoic' / 'stoicism'. You'll need a fair dose of it to get through this one. 

I recommend the following as an introduction to stoicism

1. Seneca: 'On the Shortness of Life' as the most accessible (reads amazingly) ancient author

2. Massimo Pigliucci and William B Irvine are 'modern stoics' with a few very readable books each
