The author of "Spiritual Teachings of Marcus Aurelius" brings us the words and ideas of the ancient philosopher Seneca. Of all the ancient philosophers, the writings of Seneca were the most accessible and have continued to influence readers through the ages. He was a powerful and wealthy ruler and his writings show him to be dedicated to Stoicism. Forstater brings to life these Stoic positions on issues like pleasure and the problem of desire, happiness and contentment, anger, fear, courage, love and trust. He is a fascinating and controversial character who found it difficult to balance his philosophical ideas with his life. Forstater brings these contradictions to light with his own interpretations of the philosopher.
