Moral Letters to Lucilius
6.99 €
Lucius Annaeus Seneca was a major Roman Stoic philosopher, tutor to Nero, poet, and statesman. For several years of his turbulent life, Seneca effectively directed the policies of the Roman Empire. His principles were based primarily on the philosophy of Stoicism, which had originally been developed several centuries earlier in Athens. This collection of Seneca's letters demonstrates that he defended the strict ethical ideals of Stoicism—the wisdom of a cool-headed person, impervious to all-consuming emotions and life's failures—while valuing the friendship and courage of ordinary people and criticizing the cruelty of slaves and the brutality of the gladiatorial arena. His humanity, wit, and wisdom made Moral Letters to Lucilius a remarkable work not only in ancient Roman but also in world literature.

If you're interested in philosophy, Stoicism, and ancient Roman philosophy, Moral Letters to Lucilius will be an invaluable addition to your library, and its stylish new design will be a delight to the eye.
