Max J. Lee provides a synoptic picture of the moral traditions especially those of Platonism and Stoicism which shaped the intellectual and cultural environment of Greco-Roman antiquity. He describes each philosophical schools respective teachings on diverse moral topoi such as emotional control, ethical action and habit, character formation, training, mentorship, and deity. He then organizes each schools tenets into systemic models of moral transformation.
