Sinopsis

Letters from a Stoic, include the complete surviving collection of 124 letters thatáSeneca the Youngeráwrote at the end of his life. They were written during his retirement, after he had worked for the EmperoráNeroáfor more than ten years. They are addressed toáLucilius, the thenáprocuratoráofáSicily, who is known only through SenecaâÇÖs writings. The letters focus on many traditional themes ofáStoic philosophyásuch as the contempt of death, the stout-heartedness of the sage, and virtue as the supreme good.Regardless of how Seneca and Lucilius actually corresponded, it is clear that Seneca crafted the letters with a broad readership in mind. The letters often begin with an observation on daily life, and then proceed to an issue or principle abstracted from that observation. The result is like a diary, or handbook of philosophical meditations. SenecaâÇÖs letters are focused on the inner-life, and the joy that comes from wisdom.áHe emphasizes the Stoic theme that virtue is the only true good and vice the only true evil.
