Like the 'Meditations' of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca's 'Letters' are a treasure of practical wisdom on how to live and enjoy life. The focus is on living a simple, stress-free life thorough the use of rationalism. The letters provide practical steps for people to deal with the human suffering that comes with life's problems. Topics featured range from discussions on the shortness of life and anger to immortality and death. The 'Letters' are part of the foundation of Stoic thought making Seneca one of the indispensable thinkers from Ancient Roman philosophy.

Seneca

Seneca, full name Lucius Annaeus Seneca, was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and playwright, best known for his moral essays, letters, and tragedies. He was born around 4 BCE and died in 65 CE. Seneca's work is an important part of Stoic philosophy, a school of thought that emphasizes virtue, wisdom, and the development of self-control to live a good life.
