DISCOVER THE ENDURING LEGACY OF ANCIENT STOICISMSince Roman antiquity, Lucius Annaeus Seneca' s Letters have been one of the greatest expressions of Stoic philosophy. In a highly accessible and timeless way, Seneca reveals the importance of cultivating virtue and the fleeting nature of time, and how being clear sighted about death allows us to live a life of meaning and contentment. Letters from a Stoic continues to fascinate and inspire new generations of readers, including those interested in mindfulness and psychological techniques for well-being. This deluxe hardback selected edition includes Seneca' s first 65 letters from the Richard M. Gummere translation. An insightful introduction by Donald Robertson traces Seneca' s busy life at the centre of Roman power, explores how he reconciled his Stoic outlook with vast personal wealth, and highlights Seneca' s relevance for the modern reader.
