Seneca

Lucius Annaeus Seneca , also known as Seneca the Younger, was a prominent Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman, and dramatist who lived from approximately 4 BC to 65 AD. He served as tutor and advisor to Emperor Nero, a relationship that ultimately led to his forced suicide due to alleged involvement in a plot against the emperor.

Seneca's writings, particularly his letters and philosophical works, have had a lasting impact on Western thought.

His teachings emphasize practical wisdom, virtue, and the application of Stoic principles to daily life.

Despite controversies surrounding his personal life and relationship with Nero, Seneca's works continue to be widely studied and admired for their insights into human nature and ethical living.
