The Enchiridion of Epictetus

The Enchiridion, or Manual, of Epictetus … is a short manual of Stoic ethical advice compiled by Arrian, a 2^nd-century disciple of the Greek philosopher Epictetus (see Wikipedia).

This projects presents the Enchiridion set in LaTeX as a pdf ebook.

A notable feature of this project is that the translation of the Enchiridion can be chosen at compile time by running make <translator's last name>. For example, compiling with make higginson will compile Thomas Wentworth Higginson's translation of the Enchiridion. If no translator is specified with make then Carter's translation is used. The following is a list of download links (pdf) for each currently available translation, along with a link to an online source for each:
