Seven Sages and Delphic Maxims - Ἑπτὰ Σοφοὶ καὶ Δελφικὰ Παραγγέλματα

by Joannes Stobaeus

This book presents the teachings of the Seven Sages of Greece and the Delphic Maxims, a collection of aphorisms inscribed at the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. The Seven Sages were renowned philosophers and lawgivers who lived in the 6th century BCE, and their wisdom has had a profound influence on Western thought. The Delphic Maxims are a collection of 147 sayings that were believed to have been given by the god Apollo to the Oracle at Delphi. These maxims offer guidance on a wide range of topics, including ethics, politics, and the nature of human existence.
