Zusammenfassung:When Seneca the Younger turned his back on politics, having previously advised the increasingly volatile Emperor Nero, he became one of Rome's most prolific authors and spent his retirement writing about Stoic philosophy. The most intriguing output of that time are Seneca's 'Epistulae Morales', a collection of letters on ethics that is addressed to his friend Lucilius. In these letters, Seneca writes about his everyday struggle to be a good person and to live according to the principles of Stoicism, while helping his friend embark on his own philosophical journey. This book presents a modern commentary on the second book of Seneca's Epistulae Morales in a modern language. It includes an edition and translation of the text as well as a substantial introduction
