Of Leisure only survives in a fragmentary state. The work concerns the rational use of spare time, whereby one can still actively aid humankind by engaging in wider questions about nature and the universe. The text begins mid-sentence, and ends rather abruptly. In the Codex Ambrosianus (the main source for Seneca's essays) it is simply tacked onto the end of De Vita Beata suggesting a scribe missed a page or two.

The solution lies in understanding the innate psychological forces that conspire against us.

"Von der Kürze des Lebens" ist ein philosophisches Meisterwerk der Weltliteratur und eine der bedeutendsten Schriften Senecas. Als Teil seiner "Dialoge" gehört es zum Kernbestand der stoischen Philosophie. Mit eindringlicher Klarheit richtet sich der Text gegen Zeitverschwendung, Zerstreuung und den unreflektierten äußeren Lebenswandel. In seinem Appell zur Lebenskunst macht Seneca deutlich: Das Leben ist nicht zu kurz – es wird nur allzu oft falsch genutzt. Die Schrift lädt ein, innezuhalten, Prioritäten zu hinterfragen und sich auf das Wesentliche zu besinnen.

In diesem siebten Abschnitt widmet sich Lucius Annaeus Seneca – einer der bedeutendsten Denker des antiken Rom – der zentralen Frage: Wie erreicht man ein wahrhaft glückliches Leben? Für Seneca führt der Weg zum Glück nicht über äußeren Reichtum, sondern über innere Klarheit, Vernunft und Tugend. Die Schrift ist ein präzises, eindringliches Plädoyer für ein tugendhaftes, freies Leben im Einklang mit der stoischen Philosophie.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (ca. 1–65 n. Chr.) zählt zu den einflussreichsten Philosophen der römischen Antike. In seiner Schriftensammlung "Dialoge" widmet er sich im neunten Abschnitt der "Gemütsruhe". Als bedeutender Vertreter der Stoa zeigt Seneca, wie innere Ruhe auch inmitten äußerer Turbulenzen möglich ist. Diese philosophische Reflexion lädt ein, über Bedürfnisse, Gelassenheit, das Menschenbild in der Gesellschaft und den Weg zu innerer Balance nachzudenken – ein zentrales Werk stoischer Weisheit.

"Vom Zorn" (De ira) ist einer der bekanntesten philosophischen Texte von Lucius Annaeus Seneca, einem der bedeutendsten Denker der römischen Stoa. Das Werk gehört zu seinen berühmten "Dialogen" und richtet sich gegen eines der zerstörerischsten Gefühle der menschlichen Seele: den Zorn. In scharfer Analyse beschreibt Seneca die Ursachen, Folgen und die zerstörerische Kraft der Wut – sowohl im privaten als auch im politischen Leben. Gleichzeitig bietet er eine klare Anleitung zur Selbstbeherrschung, zur kühlen Vernunft und zur stoischen Gelassenheit.

Timeless truths. Seneca captured many of these in his work On the Shortness of Life. Unfortunately, while his concepts are timeless, Seneca wrote them in Latin over 2,000 years ago. This work brings those ideas into the present by discussing the concepts and truths of Seneca in a way relatable to the modern reader. After all, Seneca never got stuck in traffic, waited in a drive-thru for his morning latte, or got drawn into a social media feed for hours on end.

On Clemency is a two volume (incomplete) hortatory essay written in 55-56 CE by Seneca the Younger, a Roman Stoic philosopher, to the emperor Nero in the first five years of his reign. From Seneca's remarks, it would appear that it was written after Nero had turned 18, which would place it after the murder of his rival Britannicus in 55 AD. It may therefore have been written partly as an apology, perhaps as a means of assuring the Roman nobility that the murder would be the end, not the beginning of bloodshed.

¿Te has detenido a pensar alguna vez en cómo vives tus días? ¿Sientes que el tiempo se te escapa, que la vida parece correr sin detenerse a esperarte? Ese sentimiento de que el tiempo se nos resbala entre los dedos, de que la vida nos empuja a un ritmo vertiginoso, es tan antiguo como la humanidad misma. El libro que tienes en tus manos, Sobre la brevedad de la vida, escrito por el filósofo estoico Séneca hace casi DOS MIL AÑOS, es un texto que desafía al lector a confrontar, sin rodeos, este incómodo dilema de la existencia: ¿qué hacemos con el tiempo que se nos ha dado?

In On the Firmness of the Wise Man Seneca argues that Stoicism is not as harsh as it first appears. Recalling the figure of Cato the Younger, Seneca argues that Cato as a wise person suffered neither injury nor insult. Although Serenus objects to this paradox, Seneca provides further analogies to emphasize the impervious nature of the wise person. In chapter 5 Seneca distinguishes between contumelia (insults) and iniuria (injuries).

The first book in the essays of Seneca deals with good and evil. The dialogue is opened by Lucilius complaining with his friend Seneca that adversities and misfortunes can happen to good men too. How can this fit with the goodness connected with the design of providence? Seneca answers according to the Stoic point of view.

Composto da Seneca nel 58 dopo Cristo, quando il filosofo aveva 54 anni, De Vita Beata, è un dialogo dedicato al fratello Gallione. Il tema, così importante, ed esplorato anche da altri filosofi dell'epoca, è quello della felicità. Cos'è la felicità? Come si arriva ad essere felici? E la ricchezza quanto conta? Queste le domande fondamentali attorno alle quali è costruita la narrazione, e la soluzione.
