Description

Seneca was a man of many facets: statesman, dramatist, philosopher, prose stylist.

His life was marked by extremes of fortune - extremes that are reflected in much of his writing, and in the vicissitudes of his reputation in later centuries.

This volume brings together some outstanding essays written about him over the past four decades, and illustrates the diversity of approaches by which modern critics have attempted to understand this multifaceted figure.

Just asSeneca's writings often reflect his times, so current critical approaches often reflect issues in contemporary thought and society.

Several of the essays have been revised by their authors for this volume, and two of them are translated for the first time.

A new introduction places the articleswithin the context of recent academic thought and criticism.

All Latin has been translated.
