Epistles, Volume I: Epistles 1-65

By Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Categories: Literature & Fiction, Religion & Spirituality

This Loeb Classical Library volume contains the first sixty-five of Seneca's moral letters to his friend Lucilius, with Latin text and facing English translation by Richard Gummere. Written late in his life, the letters offer practical Stoic advice on friendship, time, death, wealth, reading, travel and the pursuit of wisdom. They remain among the most widely read works of ancient philosophy.
