Salvete,
A question to the members of this forum : do you believe ancient philosophies (e.g. Platonism, Stoicism, Epicureanism etc.), which were primarily 'practical' in nature, can still guide our conduct in the 21st century and if so, can we just pick them up as they are in the books or do we need to carry out adaptations ?
I will also ponder this question and post my own answer to it shortly.
Valete,
Atticus
