He died of the plague in Vindobona (now Vienna) on March 17, 180, before he could begin the invasion. His plan was abandoned by his son and successor, Commodus. In his domestic policy Marcus Aurelius was a champion of the poor, for whom he founded schools, orphanages, and hospitals and alleviated the burden of taxes. He also tried to humanize criminal laws and the treatment of slaves by their masters. As a philosopher he is remembered for his Meditations, a compendium of 12 books of moral precepts written in Greek. The work, an important formulation of the philosophy of Stoicism, reveals his belief that the moral life leads to tranquillity, and stresses the virtues of wisdom, justice, fortitude, and moderation. (Microsoft Encarta) Another source adds: The Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was perhaps the only true philosopher- king in the history of the world. He was not an original nor a systematic philosopher, but in his meditations, a series of notes to himself, he formulated the Stoic beliefs with a passionate religious conviction. He shared the basic Stoic belief in the divinity of the cosmos as an intelligent being with a soul, and stressed (perhaps too fatalistically) the harmony of all things and the importance of resigning oneself to whatever happened.

Its first printing appeared in English in 1634. During the reign of Marcus Aurelius the celebrated Pax Romana collapsed - perhaps this made the emperor the most believable of all Stoics. An important feature of the philosophy was that everything will recur: the whole universe becomes fire and then repeats itself. Constantly regard the universe as one living being, having one substance and one soul; and observe how all things have reference to one perception, the perception of this one living being; and how all things act with one movement; and how all things are the cooperating causes of all things which exist; observe too the continuous spinning of the thread and the contexture of the web. (from The Meditations Marcus Aurelius was born in Rome. He came from an aristocratic family long established in Spain. His father was Annius Verus. When only a small child, he attracted the attention of the Emperor Hadrian (r. 117-138) - a pedophile and his fellow-countryman. He was appointed by the Emperor to a priesthood in 129, and Hadrian also supervised his education, which was entrusted to the best professors of literature, rhetoric and philosophy of the time. From his early twenties he deserted his other studies for philosophy. The Emperor Antoninus, who succeeded Hadrian, adopted Marcus Aurelius as his son in 138. He treated Aurelius as a confidant and helper throughout his reign. Aurelius was admitted to the Senate, and then twice the consulship. In 147 he shared tribunician power with Antoninus. During this time he began composition of his

    MAYOR GIULIANI ACCEPTS STATUE OF ROMAN EMPEROR MARCUS AURELIUS FROM MAYOR OF ROME
    STATUE FROM NEW YORK CITY'S SISTER CITY WILL STAND IN CENTRAL PARK
    Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani today welcomed Mayor of Rome Francesco Rutelli to City Hall and accepted the gift of the statue of Rome's famed second century emperor Marcus Aurelius. The statue is a replica of the one which stands in front of City Hall in Rome, New York City's Sister City. Joining the Mayor at today's announcement was Parks Commissioner Henry J. Stern. "I would like to welcome Mayor Rutelli to New York City, the Sister City of Rome and thank him for this wonderful gift - the bronze statue of Marcus Aurelius," Mayor Giuliani said. "Marcus Aurelius is one of two great Roman symbols, representing the universality and history of Rome. The statue stands as a tribute to this second century "philosopher king" who ruled with a humanitarism philosophy and enlightened intellect." The Mayor continued, "New York City and Rome have always been linked in many ways. Italian immigrants came here by the millions and worked hard to help make New York City the Capital of the World. This statue is a wonderful tribute to that connection. And I promise that Commissioner Stern and I will find the emperor a good home in Central Park."

    Marcus Aurelius
    Roman Emperor, A.D. 161-180, born at Rome, 26 April, 121; died 17 March, 180. His father died while Marcus was yet a boy, and he was adopted by his grandfather, Annius Verus. In the first pages of his "Meditations" (I, i-xvii) he has left us an account, unique in Antiquity , of his education by near relatives and by tutors of distinction; diligence, gratitude and hardiness seem to have been its chief characteristics. From his earliest years he enjoyed the friendship and patronage on the Emperor Hadrian, who bestowed on him the honour of the equestrian order when he was only six years old, made him a member of the Salian priesthood at eight, and compelled Antoninus Pius immediately after his own adoption to adopt as sons and heirs both the young Marcus and Ceionius Commodus, known later as the Emperor Lucius Verus. In honour of his adopted father he changed his name from M. Julius Aurelius Verus to M. Aurelius Antoninus. By the will of Hadrian he espoused Faustina, the daughter of Antoninus Pius. He was raised to the consularship in 140, and in 147 received the "tribunician power".

    His co-reign with Lucius Verus (161-169)
    . In all the later years of the life of Antoninus Pius, Marcus was his constant companion and adviser. On the death of the former (7 March, 161) Marcus was immediately acknowledged as emperor by the Senate. Acting entirely on his own initiative he at once promoted his adopted brother Lucius Verus to the position of colleague, with equal rights as emperor.

    Commentary
    M arcus, the son of Annius Verus and Domitia Lucilla, was born in Rome in April of 121. His father, brother-in-law of Antoninus Pius , died when Marcus was only ten months old. As a child Marcus was highly favored by Hadrian who, in attempting to create a kind of dynasty, insisted that Antoninus Pius adopt him (see cat. 24). His name was changed to Marcus Aelius Aurelius Verus Caesar, reflecting various familial and political ties. He was also betrothed to the daughter of Aelius Caesar (see Hadrianic Noble , Riley Collection) but, once Antoninus Pius became emperor, this arrangement was dissolved. Marcus was engaged to the new emperor's daughter, Anna Galeria Faustina Minor (see Antonine Woman as Venus , Riley Collection). Antoninus Pius reigned for almost twenty-four years but on 7 March 161 Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, as he was now called, became emperor at age forty. In an act of magnanimity that was to characterize his reign, he insisted that the intentions of Antoninus Pius be honored by accepting the co-regency of Lucius Verus , son of Aelius Caesar. Unfortunately, the degenerate Verus was not a worthy partner. His early death in 169 must have been a relief to Marcus Aurelius and the Roman nobility. Aurelius continued to rule until his death on 17 March 180, just ten days short of the nineteenth anniversary of his ascendancy.

    Unit 3: Ancient Rome
    / Roman Peace Most Happy and Prosperous In the late eighteenth century, Edward Gibbon wrote his influential book The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire beginning with the premise that the second century A.D. was the high point from which Rome later declined. The Roman state had emerged from the misrule of the early emperors into a period of peace and prosperity under a series of so-called Good Emperors from Nerva to Marcus Aurelius (96-180). It was during this period, Gibbon argues, that Europe was created as a cultural entity that would endure the fall of the Roman Empire. An Ethical Plea to the Emperor Nero, ca. A.D. 67 The Romans borrowed the philosophy of the Stoics from the Greeks, accepting it more readily than they did other Greek ideas. Stoics built up the ideal of the virtuous, wise man and based ethics on logic and physics. In their ethical creed, the Stoics listed virtue as the greatest good in life. They associated virtue with happiness, claiming that it could not be touched by changes in fortune. Following these precepts, the Stoic philosopher Seneca (4 B.C.-A.D. 65) made an ethical appeal to the Emperor Nero (r. 54-68 A.D.) to practice clemency toward his subjects. Returning with Temple Spoils Jews living under the Romans in the first century A.D. could not accept Roman rule and wished to reestablish their own independant kingdom in the homeland region around Jerusalem. In 66, they rebelled in earnest against the Romans, who suppressed the rebellion and, four years later, destroyed the Jewish temple at Jerusalem, the central site of Jewish worship and religious life. Although the Romans had captured Jerusalem, some more remote fortresses, like Masada on the western side of the Dead Sea, remained sites of Jewish resistance. A Roman siege of Masada lasted until 73, when its inhabitants, realizing they were defeated and not wanting to become Roman captives, took their own lives.

    Marcus Aurelius: From the Meditations
    "...My city and country, so far as I am Antoninus, is Rome, but so far as I am a man, it is the world. "
    Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121-180 CE), child of an aristocratic Roman family, adoptive heir to Emperor Antoninus Pius, and bearer of the nickname Verissimus bestowed by Hadrian: the first real philosopher emperor since Asoka. Influenced primarily by the Stoics, Cato and Junius Rusticus, he remained a serious student of philosophy. He became sole emperor (Pontifex Maximus) of Rome in 161 and in 167 wrote the Meditations , the last work of classical Stoicism. He fought in many wars during his reign, particularly in defense of the Empire against incursions by Persians and Germanic tribes, and he died while away on a military expedition in 180.
    Although I dislike his Platonic streak, his tedious emphasis on reason, his interpretation of wrongdoing as involuntary (a surprisingly wimpy thought for such a battle-hardened general), his dismissal of tragedy as "the universe wanted it that way," his naiveté about the psychology of suffering, and his contempt for the body and the things of the world, I find in much of his thought a refreshing austerity and a manly integrity. He is straightforward and steady. And he would have approved Shakespeare's "To thine own self be true" with the qualification that such truth always aimed at a sense of oneness with other beings.
