Letters from a Stoic: Epistulae Morales Ad Lucilium
ISBN: 9780140442106 / Angielski / Miękka / 1969 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. "It is philosophy that has the duty of protecting us...without it no one can lead a life free of fear or worry."
For several years of his turbulent life, Seneca was the guiding hand of the Roman Empire. His inspired reasoning derived mainly from the Stoic principles, which had originally been developed some centuries earlier in Athens. This selection of Seneca's letters shows him upholding the austere ethical ideals of Stoicism--the wisdom of the self-possessed person immune to overmastering emotions and life's setbacks--while valuing friendship and the courage of ordinary men, and...

ISBN: 9781329864764 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Seneca composed the Consolations while in exile on Corsica during 40-44 AD and used each opportunity to show off in writing his trendy Stoic ideas about life and the universe. His three letters of condolences De Consolatione ad Marciam, De Consolatione ad Polybium and De Consolatione ad Helviam caused a sensation in Rome when they were circulated and before long the disgraced aristocrat was recalled from banishment and given the plum appointment of tutor to the young future emperor Nero. In each work Seneca employs many of the rhetorical devices common to the consolatio tradition while...

Seneca's "hercules Furens": A Critical Text with Introduction and Commentary
ISBN: 9780801475719 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. John G. Fitch's new Latin text of Seneca's play, Hercules Furens, is based on a collation of the chief manuscripts, including the Paris manuscript T. In his introduction, Fitch traces the conflicting classical portrayals of Hercules--a figure embodying altruism and aggrandizement, restraint and wildness--and argues that in the play, the untamed side of his nature ultimately turns against him and destroys him. In introductory notes to individual acts and choral odes, Fitch addresses the play's thematic development and discusses probably influences, including the Greek... John G.

Six Tragedies
ISBN: 9780192807069 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Here is a lively, readable, and accurate verse translation of the six best plays by one of the most influential of all classical Latin writers--the only tragic playwright from ancient Rome whose work survives. Tutor to the emperor Nero, Seneca lived through uncertain, oppressive, and violent times, and his dramas depict the extremes of human behavior. Rape, suicide, child-murder, incestuous love, madness, and mutilation afflict the characters, who are obsessed and destroyed by their feelings. Seneca forces us to think about the difference between compromise and hypocrisy, about what happens...

Vom glücklichen Leben. Von der Kürze des Lebens
ISBN: 9783730614013 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Du sollst im Heute und nicht für eine ungewisse Zukunft leben, jeder Mensch weiß das, und doch fällt es manchem schwer, seine Zeit auf Erden recht zu gebrauchen. Dies beobachtete der römische Philosoph und Politiker Seneca schon vor 2000 Jahren, weshalb er gründlich darüber nachzudenken begann, was das Leben wahrhaft glücklich macht. Seine beiden zentralen Schriften dazu - »Vom glücklichen Leben« und »Von der Kürze des Lebens« - vereinigt dieser Band. Sie könnten aktueller kaum sein: Seneca ficht gegen Geld und Gier und ermuntert die Menschen, »leben zu lernen«, ehe es zu...

In seinem kurzen Essay, der sich auch als Programmschrift der stoischen Ethik lesen lässt, zeigt Seneca auf, wie ein weiser Mensch mit Kritik und dergleichen umgeht. Einem Weisen, so Seneca, kann kein Unrecht widerfahren, und er kann nicht beleidigt werden. Der Philosoph präzisiert: Zwar kann der Weise durchaus mit diesen Phänomenen konfrontiert werden - aber sie berühren ihn nicht, ja er wächst sogar daran. Eine Schrift mit Ratgebercharakter.
