This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This video focuses on Epicurus' works in moral philosophy, and examines his discussion of Friendship, which he considers not only to be useful in terms of providing security from pains and fears, and to be useful for providing pleasure -- but also in some cases a good valuable for its own sake.
