Seneca: Vom glückseligen Leben (De Vita Beata): Klassiker der Philosophie

Focusing on the Stoic perspective, this work explores the relationship between wealth and a virtuous life, emphasizing that true happiness stems from the right handling of riches. Addressed to Seneca's brother Gallio, it argues that virtue is essential for attaining bliss. Although the conclusion is lost, the text survives through a 11th-century Milanese manuscript. Seneca, a prominent Roman philosopher and statesman, presents his insights in a dialogue format, encouraging readers to cultivate virtue as a pathway to fulfillment.
