Seneca Quotes I Wish I Knew When I Was Younger.
Seneca, full name Lucius Annaeus Seneca, sometimes known as Seneca the Younger, was a Roman philosopher, statesman, orator, and tragedian who was born in Corduba (now Córdoba), Spain, around 4 BC and died in Rome, Italy, in AD 65 . In the middle of the first century CE, when Rome was at the height of its intellectual power, he and his friends effectively ruled the Roman world between 54 and 62, during the early years of Emperor Nero's rule.
Seneca is known as a writer for his tragedies-only plays and philosophical writings. His written works include 124 letters and 12 essays that address moral dilemmas. One of the most significant collections of original sources for ancient stoicism is represented by these writings.
Seneca aligns with the Stoics that happiness can be attained through virtue. Contrary to one's surroundings, one can control their virtue. According to Stoicism, one's understanding of one's own nature is crucially linked to their understanding of nature as a whole. In his writings, Seneca frequently emphasizes the value of comprehending nature.
Seneca was exiled to Corsica in 41 AD after being charged of adultery with Julia Livilla, the emperor's niece. He had already achieved fame as a writer and philosopher. In exile, he continued to write plays and philosophy. He wrote that "one man's exile was but a drop in the sea of human upheaval," using the traditional stoic expression.
