Description:

Schafer interprets this important pair of Senecan letters, which have recently been used primarily as evidence for a critical debate in early Stoicism, as Seneca's clearest and longest exploration of the techniques of moral education. Schafer argues against attempts to see these letters as evidence for a Stoic theory of rule-following in moral deliberation. He instead contextualizes the letters within the Epistulae Morales as a whole, showing how they illuminate Seneca's interest in exploring the nature of education, friendship, and self-reform in the philosophical life.
