and its relationship to the military. She explores what the Stoic philosophy actually is, the
role it plays in the character of the military (both ancient and modern), and its powerful
value as a philosophy of life.
Marshalling anecdotes from military history
—
ranging from ancient Greek wars to
World War II, Vietnam, and Iraq
—
Sherman illuminates the military mind and uses it as a
window on the virtues of the Stoic philosophy, which are far richer and more interesting
than our popularized notions. She explores the deep, lasting value that Stoicism can yield,
in issues of military leadership and character; in the Stoic conception of anger and its control;
and in Stoic thinking about fear and resilience, grief and mourning, and the value of
camaraderie and brotherhood. Sherman concludes by recommending a moderate Stoicism,
where the task for the individual, both civilian and military, youth and adult, is to temper
control with forgiveness, and warrior drive and achievement with humility and humor.
Stoic Warriors is a perceptive investigation of what makes Stoicism so compelling
not only as a guiding principle for the military, but as a philosophy for anyone facing the
hardships of life.
