HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of
best-loved, essential classics. ‘Where you arrive does not matter
so much as what sort of person you are when you arrive there.’
Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4BC–AD 65) is one of the most eminent
Roman philosophers. Instrumental in guiding the Roman Empire under
Emperor Nero, Seneca influenced him from a young age with his Stoic
principles. Later in life, Seneca wrote Epistulae Morales ad
Lucilium, or Letters from a Stoic, detailing these principles in
full, sharing the many traditional themes of Stoic philosophy, such
as the contempt of death, the value of friendship and virtue as the
supreme good. Using Gummere’s translation from the early
twentieth century, this selection of Seneca’s letters shows his
belief in the ethical ideas of Stoicism and continues to provide
practical, personal counsel for readers seeking guidance in the
turbulent twenty-first century.
