In our 3rd interview with Stoic author, philosopher and cognitive behavioural therapist, Donald Robertson, we discuss his brand new graphic novel, VERISSIMUS.
This is the most epic philosophical project that I am aware of to date.
If Ridley Scott's Gladiator had a baby with Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations, you’d get Verissimus.
As you’ll hear in this interview, this project was a massive undertaking, taking nearly 3 years to complete. Detailing the life, times, and philosophy of Marcus Aurelius, the book acts as a historically accurate, action-packed entry point into the Stoic landscape.
In this episode, we cover:

  • The process of creating this book
  • Why Donald decided to make a graphic novel
  • Why many Romans actually opposed Marcus Aurelius
  • Marcus’ mission to cultivate natural compassion towards all human beings, even his worst enemies
  • The absurdity of Stoicism’s most popular criticism
  • Stoicism’s deep influence on early Christianity
  • The relationship between intuition and reason
  • Jon’s single favourite chapter on Stoicism
