Autorenporträt
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, commonly known as Seneca the Younger, was a renowned Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and dramatist of the Silver Age of Latin literature. Born around 4 BCE in Corduba in Hispania, Seneca was raised in Rome, where he was educated in rhetoric and philosophy. As an advisor to Emperor Nero, his influence was significant until he fell from favor and was compelled to take his own life in 65 CE. Seneca's philosophical works, which are foundational texts of Stoicism, include treatises, essays, and letters that elucidate Stoic principles of virtue, ethics, and the contemplation of nature. 'Seneca's Morals of a Happy Life, Benefits, Anger and Clemency' emphasizes the Stoic values of living a life guided by reason, managing destructive emotions such as anger, and exercising clemency. His writings on happiness and the rational approach to life's challenges have endured through the centuries, influencing a wide array of thinkers and contributing richly to the field of ethics and the broader humanistic tradition. Not only do his texts serve as philosophical works, but they also provide literary value with their eloquent prose and rhetorical prowess, reflecting Seneca's mastery over language and thought.
