Hardback. Zustand: Good. How ancient Stoicism can help teach us to treat others?and ourselves?more fairly and mercifully There are times when we?ve all felt that we haven?t been treated as we deserve?that we?ve been misjudged, shortchanged, or given a raw deal. And, at one time or another, other people have probably felt that we?ve treated them just as unfairly. How to Do the Right Thing draws on the principles of ancient Stoicism as articulated by the Roman statesman and philosopher Seneca to help readers better navigate one of the most important practical questions of daily life?how to do right by others.Starting from the virtue of magnanimity?the opposite of small-mindedness?How to Do the Right Thing draws together lessons from Seneca?s writings that stress the importance of calm and clear thinking, of judging oneself fairly before judging others, and of cutting people slack, with a bias toward mercy?all delivered in crisp and lively new translations, and with the original Latin on facing pages.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A vibrant new translation of Seneca?s ?On the Shortness of Life,? a pointed reminder to make the most of our timeWho doesn?t worry sometimes that smart phones, the Internet, and TV are robbing us of time and preventing us from having a life? How can we make the most of our time on earth? In the first century AD, the Stoic philosopher Seneca the Younger offered one of the most famous answers to that question in his essay ?On the Shortness of Life??a work that has more to teach us today than ever before. In How to Have a Life, James Romm presents a vibrant new translation of Seneca?s brilliant essay, plus two Senecan letters on the same theme, complete with the original Latin on facing pages and an inviting introduction.With devastating satiric wit, skillfully captured in this translation, Seneca lampoons the ways we squander our time and fail to realize how precious it is. We don?t allow people to steal our money, yet we allow them to plunder our time, or else we give it away ourselves in useless, idle pursuits. Seneca also describes how we can make better use of our brief days and years. In the process, he argues, we can make our lives longer, or even everlasting, because to live a real life is to attain a kind of immortality.A counterweight to the time-sucking distractions of the modern world, How to Have a Life offers priceless wisdom about making our time?and our lives?count.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Based on the legends used in Greek drama, Seneca's plays are notable for the exuberant ruthlessness with which disastrous events are foretold and then pursued to their tragic and often bloodthirsty ends. Thyestes depicts the menace of an ancestral curse hanging over two feuding brothers, while Phaedra portrays a woman tormented by fatal passion for her stepson. In The Trojan Women, the widowed Hecuba and Andromache await their fates at the hands of the conquering Greeks, and Oedipus follows the downfall of the royal House of Thebes. Octavia is a grim commentary on Nero's tyrannical rule and the execution of his wife, with Seneca himself appearing as an ineffective counsellor attempting to curb the atrocities of the emperor.…
