An annotated version and very lucid translation. Supposedly a very stoicism-oriented book, a kind of diary, evidently not intended for 'publication.' He was anti-Christian but I see many themes compatible. Naively, perhaps, I see his invocation of deities as metaphorical and his reference to God almost monotheistic. An underlying theme of humility and a quest for virtue.
