Extractions: Epictetus was born a slave in Hierapolis, a small town in Phrygia, Asia Minor (in present-day Turkey). His master was Epaphroditus, a member of Emperor Nero's personal staff in Rome . As was often done at that time, Epaphroditus saw to it that Epictetus had a good education, sending him to study with the Roman Stoic , Rufus. Founded by Zeno of Citium (336-265 B.C.), the Stoic school received its name from the columned "porch" stoa, where Zeno had taught. The Stoics held that human life should be lived in harmony with nature, regardless of what life may bring: a reassuring doctrine for a slave such as Epictetus. But Epictetus did not remain a slave, gaining his freedom sometime after the death of Nero in A.D. 68. He began to teach until A.D. 89 or 93 when Emperor Domitian expelled all the philosophers from Rome . Domitian seems to have been especially angry with the Stoics for teaching that sovereignty comes from God and is for the benefit of the people. (Epictetus' reported claim that he had the same regard for the emperor as for his water-pot could not have helped.) Epictetus moved to Nicropolis in Epirus (northwestern Greece), where he established a thriving

http://www.dc.peachnet.edu/~shale/humanities/literature/assignments/medea.html

Extractions: The Greek philosopher Epictetus, in discussing why people perform acts that are harmful to themselves, uses examples from the play Medea to illustrate an extreme case of a self-destructive act. Essentially, he argues that people go against their best interest because they are unable (for whatever reason) to determine what is best for them, and that if they are shown the course of action that is best for them, they will inevitably choose that plan. The idea that everyone is naturally drawn to the good and that people fail to choose the best for themselves because they lack full knowledge of their situation goes back to Plato and Aristotle. In the Nichomachean Ethics , Aristotle presumes that everyone wants to be happy, and that by using reason, we can attain personal happiness and at the same time be ethically good. In seeking to understand why people perform harmful or irrational acts, philosophers tend to emphasize lack of reason or understanding as a cause, and they tend to propose reason or education as a solution. Writers of fiction, poetry, or drama, on the other hand, are frequently more skeptical about the power of reason. Eurpides, through the character of Jason, shows how easily humans can manipulate reason (or rationalize) rather than using it to reach an understanding. The purpose of Assignment 1 is to analyze the basic argument of Epictetus and to determine whether or not his conclusion fits with your interpretation of the play.
