Illuminating writings by Stoicisms most eloquent advocate, now with a new introductionIt is philosophy that has the duty of protecting us... without it no one can lead a life free of fear or worryFor several years of his turbulent life, in which he was dogged by ill health, exile and danger, Seneca was the guiding hand of the Roman Empire. This selection of Senecas letters shows him upholding the ideals of Stoicism the wisdom of the selfpossessed person immune to lifes setbacks while valuing friendship and courage, and criticizing the harsh treatment of slaves and the cruelties in the gladiatorial arena. The humanity and wit revealed in Senecas interpretation of Stoicism is a moving and inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind.
