Moral Letters, Vol. II

by Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Lucius Annaeus Seneca, a prominent figure in the early Roman Empire, penned these letters towards the end of his life, addressed to his friend Lucilius, a procurator in Sicily. While structured as letters, these writings delve into philosophical themes, encompassing Stoic principles, moral guidance, and reflections on life, death, and happiness. Seneca's exploration of virtue, wisdom, and the pursuit of a fulfilling life provides insight into his personal philosophy and offers timeless reflections on human nature and existence.
