Resumo: |
The dissertation undertakes an analysis of the philosophical aspects of the Letters to Lucilius by Lucio Aneu Seneca, Stoic philosopher and Roman politician born in 4 BC. It seeks to investigate, from his work, his understanding regarding life and its finiteness in death. Although his work is extensive, this work will be limited to the Letters wherein the concept of death is more widely dealt with and didactically explained. In the first chapter, the foundations fundamentals of stoic philosophy are explained, which begins in ancient Stoicism through middle stoicism until Roman stoicism, period in which our philosopher is inserted. Thenceforth it deals with the understanding of his life and work in order to comprehend what it means, for Seneca, a good death and how meditating about death assists on the effort to understand it. Throughout this work it is discussed with some interpreters of Seneca's stoicism, with particular focus on the Letters to Lucilius. Finally, after bringing clarity to the above issue, the work seeks to note the resemblance between his thoughts and the theme today |
