Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BC-AD 65) is one of the most famous Roman philosophers. Instrumental in guiding the Roman Empire under emperor Nero, Seneca influenced him from a young age with his Stoic principles. Later in life, he wrote Letters from a Stoic, detailing these principles in full. Seneca’s letters read like a diary or a handbook of philosophical meditations. Often beginning with observations on daily life, the letters focus on many traditional themes of Stoic philosophy, such as the contempt of death, the value of friendship, and virtue as the supreme good.

Wenn Dir ein Unheil passiert, gibt es für Dich kein besseres Heilmittel als die Lektüre von Lucius A. Seneca. Seine Schriften fanden die Bewunderung des Kirchenvaters Hieronymus, sie trösteten den römischen Senator Boethius im Gefängnis, sie wurden von Dante zitiert und von Rubens verehrt, sie entlockten sogar dem Erasmus höchstes Lob. Sein eigenes Leben vor 2000 Jahren scheint dazu in offenem Gegensatz zu stehen: Unter Kaiser Caligula wird Seneca verfolgt, unter Claudius verbannt und von Nero zum Selbstmord gezwungen.
