Ideas that have changed the world.
Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves and others. They have inspired debate, discord, war, and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked, and comforted. They have enriched lives, and they have also destroyed them.
Taurus publishes the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and made us who we are.
The Meditations of the great Roman emperor-philosopher Marcus Aurelius are simple yet profound works of Stoic philosophy that continue to offer many guidance and comfort with their eloquence, wisdom, and humility to this day.
Comments on the Great Ideas collection:
«The edition is truly exquisite and rarely can content and container be better assembled and united. What covers! Worth framing. [...] In the face of Great Ideas, one can only take one's hat off. Chapeau!»
ABC.
«Taurus is making a double challenge with this launch. On the one hand, it is increasing its commitment to the essay; on the other, it is recovering its taste for aesthetics. The volumes have been given a delicate and careful cover (a copy of the British original) that invites reading.»
The reason.
«A publishing phenomenon.»
