@ TELEGRAM: “TIME DISCOVERS TRUTH.“ LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA / LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA THE YOUNGER WAS A ROMAN STOIC PHILOSOPHER, STATESMAN, DRAMATIST, AND HUMORIST. SENECA WAS BORN IN CORDOBA IN HISPANIA, AND RAISED IN ROME, WHERE HE WAS TRAINED IN RHETORIC AND PHILOSOPHY. HIS FATHER WAS SENECA THE ELDER, HIS ELDER BROTHER WAS LUCIUS JUNIUS GALLIO ANNAEANUS, AND HIS NEPHEW WAS THE POET LUCAN. IN AD 41, SENECA WAS EXILED TO THE ISLAND OF CORSICA UNDER EMPEROR CLAUDIUS, BUT WAS ALLOWED TO RETURN IN 49 TO BECOME A TUTOR TO NERO. WHEN NERO BECAME EMPEROR IN 54, SENECA BECAME HIS ADVISOR AND, TOGETHER WITH THE PRAETORIAN PREFECT SEXTUS AFRANIUS BURRUS, PROVIDED COMPETENT GOVERNMENT FOR THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF NERO’S REIGN. SENECA’S INFLUENCE OVER NERO DECLINED WITH TIME, AND IN 65 SENECA WAS FORCED TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE FOR ALLEGED COMPLICITY IN THE PISONIAN CONSPIRACY TO ASSASSINATE NERO, IN WHICH HE WAS LIKELY TO HAVE BEEN INNOCENT. HIS STOIC AND CALM SUICIDE HAS BECOME THE SUBJECT OF NUMEROUS PAINTINGS. AS A WRITER SENECA IS KNOWN FOR HIS PHILOSOPHICAL WORKS, AND FOR HIS PLAYS, WHICH ARE ALL TRAGEDIES. AS A TRAGEDIAN, HE IS BEST KNOWN FOR PLAYS SUCH AS HIS MEDEA, THYESTES, AND PHAEDRA. SENECA’S INFLUENCE ON LATER GENERATIONS IS IMMENSE—DURING THE RENAISSANCE HE WAS “A SAGE ADMIRED AND VENERATED AS AN ORACLE OF MORAL.“ #luciusannaeusseneca #seneca #philosophy #ethics #moralphilosophy #moralletterstolucilius #historyandphilosophy #stoicism #problemofevil #romanphilosophy #innabesedina #hellenisticphilosophy #westernphilosophy #onprovidence #onanger #onpeaceofmind #ontheshortnessoflife #knowledge #studying #philosophical #quotes #wisdom #selfgrowth #selfdevelopment #smartquotes #smart #clever #cleverquotes #thoughts #philosophicalthoughts #interestingthoughts #interestingvideo 00:00 LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA 03:09 PHILOSOPHY 04:19 LETTERS / MORAL LETTERS TO LUCILIUS 05:18 THEMES 06:01 NATURALES QUAESTIONES 07:31 ESSAYS / ON PROVIDENCE 09:11 ON THE FIRMNESS OF THE WISE 09:40 ON ANGER 10:48 ON THE TRANQUILITY OF THE MIND / ON PEACE OF MIND 11:18 ON THE SHORTNESS OF LIFE ALL IMAGES IN THIS VIDEO ARE IMAGES IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
