Timeless wisdom about death from the distinguished Stoic philosopher Seneca. “It takes a whole lifetime to learn how to die,” wrote the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca (4 BC - 65 AD).
He actually advised his readers to “always meditate on death” and, following his own advice, revisited his writings on this subject again and again, although he never dedicated a complete work to it.
On the Shortness of Life gathers for the first time in one volume all of Seneca's important reflections on death. Through this particular work, a provocative thinker is revealed, a striking writer who speaks with unparalleled directness about the need to accept death.
Seneca believed that life is a journey toward death, for which we must prepare throughout our entire lives. He emphasizes the universality of death, its importance as the final chapter of life, and its potential to free us from pain, bondage, or political oppression.
Based on the original texts of Seneca, On the Shortness of Life includes an enlightening introduction, notes, and an epilogue with Tacitus' account of Seneca's tragic suicide.
