How to cultivate the good life according to Roman philosophy. Today, we treasure the Romans for their advances in art, culture, politics, and philosophy. That’s why so many of their texts survived and why we employ elements of their political practices in our modern form of government. But Letters From a Stoic invites us to remember the Romans as more than dusty relics and engage with ancient wisdom that still has the power to pack a punch in the present. By exploring the writings of the influential Roman philosopher Seneca, Letters From a Stoic offers us the opportunity to connect with Seneca’s insights on some of the fundamental questions of human existence: what “the good life” is and how to find it, how to break free of toxic habits, and how to find peace.
