Study of the reception accorded to Stoic philosophy in major 17th
century German tragedies reveals the conceptual foundations of the
incipient modern age from the vantage of tradition. In this
approach, Stoic philosophy is freed of the reduction to the
phenomenon of constantia typical of previous research on the
Baroque and is taken seriously as a philosophy of culture of the
kind represented throughout the works of Seneca. The analysis from
the viewpoint of the history of ideas foreground the Stoic premise
of secundum naturam vivere and shows how the early modern age
represented a dead end for Stoic philosophy in a 'modern',
practical form.
