O autoru

Lucius Annaeus Seneca, known simply as Seneca (c. 4 BCE - 65 CE), was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and playwright who has continued to captivate scholars and lay readers alike with his insightful prose, profound wisdom, and dramatic works. Hailing from Corduba in Hispania, Seneca was one of the most prominent intellectuals of his time, and his vast array of writings cover a range of topics including philosophy, rhetoric, and ethics. 'Of Consolation: To Marcia', one of his consolatory essays, encapsulates Seneca's Stoic beliefs. In this meditation, he corresponded with Marcia, offering comfort upon the death of her son, through Stoic perspectives on grief and resilience. As with much of his oeuvre, Seneca's work addresses the human condition and the mastery of emotion through reason and virtue. His essays and letters, particularly his Moral Epistles, have been lauded for their stylistic grace and their focus on practical ethical action. Throughout the centuries, Seneca's literary style, marked by aphoristic precision and philosophical depth, has exerted considerable influence over Western thought. His reflections serve as both a guide to personal conduct and a reflection on the universal struggles of life, making his work perennially relevant in the exploration of the human experience.
