The Discourses of Epictetus

P. E. Matheson's 1916 translation of the complete Discourses, followed by the Fragments and the Manual. Its plain English makes it the easiest full version to read straight through.

Elizabeth Carter made the first complete English translation of Epictetus in 1758, and this 1910 edition sets it in clear modern type. It holds the Discourses, the Enchiridion and the Fragments in her lively prose.
