Seneca Letters: A Selection Description
Seneca Letters: A Selection
This is the OCR-endorsed publication from Bloomsbury for the Latin
A-Level (Group 2) prescription of Seneca's Letters, giving full
Latin text, commentary and vocabulary for Letters 51, 53 and 57,
with a detailed introduction that also covers the prescribed text
to be read in English. The most enduringly popular of his works,
the Letters are an ideal introduction to both the personal
philosophy and the vibrant Latin of Seneca. He writes with wit and
modesty to his friend Lucilius about his own, daily struggle to
live up to the ideals of Stoicism. Over the course of this
selection he covers a great variety of topics including the Stoics'
perennial conflict with Fortune, the corrupting influence of a bad
environment and the irrational nature of most fear. Composed not
long before his own suicide, the Letters also provide an important
insight into Seneca's views on death and immortality.
