Seneca believed that the passions arise in a rational mind as a misunderstanding of reality. A passion is a defective belief which occurs when the mind makes errors about the values of things.

Seneca, der große stoische Philosoph und Staatsmann, wird von seinem Freund Serenus wie ein Arzt angesprochen: "Heile mich, Seneca, von meinem Makel im Innersten!" Seine Seele fühle sich beklemmt.

Seneca lässt sich nicht lange bitten: Das alles, so lautet sein Credo, sei durch die Stoa heilbar - damals genau wie heute.

Auf der Suche nach einem glücklichen Leben ist der Mensch seit jeher. Was Glück bedeutet, das hat sich allerdings geändert und ist auch heute so unterschiedlich wie die Lebenswelten der Menschen. Läßt sich vor diesem Hintergrund überhaupt sinnvoll von dem Glück reden, lassen sich Regeln und Maximen aufstellen, die zu einem gelingenden, einem glücklichen Leben führen? Seneca sagt: Ja, das ist möglich. Er setzt dafür bei dem an, was den Menschen zum Menschen macht: bei der Vernunft.

Die Kürze des Lebens: Wir haben nicht zu wenig Zeit - wir vergeuden zu viel. Das Leben ist lang, wir selbst machen es kurz, indem wir es achtlos dahinfließen lassen. Das ist die grundlegende Einsicht des großen Stoikers Lucius Annaeus Seneca.

Der bekannte, an seinen Bruder Gallio adressierte Text gehört zu den wichtigen Texten Senecas und hat später Autoren und Philosophen von Heinrich von Kleist bis Wilhelm Schmid beeinflusst. Seneca arbeitet dabei Unterschiede zwischen Wohlleben und Glück heraus, verurteilt nicht die Annehmlichkeiten des Lebens, weist ihnen aber den gebührenden Platz nach den wichtigen Dingen des Lebens zu. Nach und nach entwickelt er so ein Vademecum über das richtige, gelingende Leben. Vom glückseligen Leben.

Il filosofo romano scrive all'amico Lucillo, e gli racconta l'animo umano. Le sue caratteristiche, i suoi vizi e le sue virtù. Come un esploratore dei sentimenti più intimi, e un gran conoscitore delle numerose sfaccettature che compongono i pensieri e i comportamenti degli esseri umani, Seneca indica una via possibile per vivere in armonia con se stessi e con gli altri, attraverso la riscoperta della consapevolezza di quello che davvero conta.

Composto da Seneca nel 58 dopo Cristo, quando il filosofo aveva 54 anni, De Vita Beata, è un dialogo dedicato al fratello Gallione. Il tema, così importante, ed esplorato anche da altri filosofi dell'epoca, è quello della felicità. Cos'è la felicità? Come si arriva ad essere felici? E la ricchezza quanto conta? Queste le domande fondamentali attorno alle quali è costruita la narrazione, e la soluzione.

È il decimo dei "Dialoghi" di Seneca, dedicato al suocero Pompeo Paolino, che aveva in quel momento l'importante incarico di prefetto dell'annona, cioè di raccolta e distribuzione del grano nell'Urbe. E proprio all'amico, oltre che parente, Seneca dà il consiglio di ritirarsi a vita privata, tralasciando ogni attività pubblica. Assumendo cioè un atteggiamento filosofico apparentemente epicureo, nonostante lo stesso Seneca fosse un esponente importante dello stoicismo romano.

On the Shortness of Life was written by Seneca around the year 49AD. He argues that we waste so much time because we do not properly value it. We expend great effort in protecting other valuables such as money and property, but because time appears intangible, we allow others to occupy it and take time away from us. Wise people, on the other hand, understand that time is the most valuable of all resources, and with effort can free themselves from external control to engage in meaningful introspection and create an intentional life.

The work opens with Serenus asking Seneca for counsel, and this request for help takes the form of a medical consultation. Serenus explains that he feels agitated and in a state of unstable immobility, "As if I were on a boat that doesn't move forward and is tossed about." Seneca uses the dialogue to address an issue that cropped up many times in his life: the desire for a life of contemplation and the need for active political engagement. Seneca argues that the goal of a tranquil mind can be achieved by being flexible and seeking a middle way between the two extremes.
