Описание: The Roman statesman and philosopher Seneca (4 BCE-65 CE) recorded his moral philosophy and reflections on life as a highly original kind of correspondence. Letters on Ethics includes vivid descriptions of town and country life in Nero's Italy, discussions of poetry and oratory, and philosophical training for Seneca's friend Lucilius. This volume, the first complete English translation in nearly a century, makes the Letters more accessible than ever before.

Written as much for a general audience as for Lucilius, these engaging letters offer advice on how to deal with everything from nosy neighbors to sickness, pain, and death. Seneca uses the informal format of the letter to present the central ideas of Stoicism, for centuries the most influential philosophical system in the Mediterranean world. His lively and at times humorous expositions have made the Letters his most popular work and an enduring classic. Including an introduction and explanatory notes by Margaret Graver and A. A. Long, this authoritative edition will captivate a new generation of readers.

Описание: In his new poetry collection, author Lucio Presutti draws on his life experiences, trials, and tribulations to present a unique philosophical view on historical events, human behavior, and current experiences. From the search for romance to the loss of our most revered president, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, he captures of the heart and soul of the emotional depth of each experience. Compelled strongly by the theory of duality, he believes our forces in nature and life itself invariably touch and mould the intrinsic nature of all human beings. There is a deep and profoundly spiritual resonance in his writings. Though he has experienced a tumultuous life, the inherent optimism in his life is evident in Lucio's Poems. Where Are You? My passion, my love, I've yet to meet I feel you there, here, Somewhere For you my heart, thumps a romantic Beat And lays my soul such yearning care OH! How I picture your sweet embrace and the taste of your warm sweet kiss such beauty I vision in your lovely face To cast me in loves sweet bliss. We are destined by cupids fate Two soul mates yet to be a building crescendo to a lovers haste that your sweet eyes, will always look for me my romance lies barely constrained as I search to find that girl I do till then everyday is such a lonely pain OH! My sweet true love, where are you?

Описание: 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 in Seneca's letters 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. Although Stoicism is not now as widely practiced as it once was, many people can still find wisdom and inspiration through Seneca's words and letters.

"In the last three years, I've begun to explore one philosophical system in particular: Stoicism. Through my preferred Stoic writer, Lucius Seneca, I've found it to be a simple and immensely practical set of rules for better results with less effort." -Timothy Ferriss, author of Four Hour Workweek.

Описание: This is the first modern commentary devoted exclusively to the epigrams of Lucillius, a prolific Neronian poet who, in spite of being one of the most significant representatives of the Greek satirical epigram, has primarily been studied not for his own value, but for the influence he had on Martial. About 140 epigrams of his survive, mostly in book XI of the Anthology. The volume contains an extensive introduction, a new critical text and translation, and a full literary and philological commentary. While the body of the commentary focuses on the particular, providing literary readings of individual epigrams and a line-by-line linguistic, philological, and stylistic analysis, the introduction deals with Lucillius’s identity, the tradition of the text, style, themes, metrics, and cultural setting, and additionally investigates the origins and development of Greek skoptic epigram. Particular attention is paid to the way in which Lucillius engages with the conventions of the genre, often overturning the reader’s expectations. In this way, the work explores the paradox inherent to the fact that a poetic form that was by its nature eulogistic (inscriptional epigrams were born in order to record, and thus celebrate, the dedication of an object or the death of a man) ultimately became the genre of mockery and abuse.
