Sinossi
Excerpt from Œuvres Complètes de Sénèque le Philosophe, Vol. 2
I. Souvent, 6 la meilleure des mères, j'ai formé le pro jet d'adoucir vos peines, souvent j'ai retenu l'élan de mon coeur. Plusieurs motifs m'encourageaient à vous écrire. D'abord il me semblait que, suspendre au moins un instant vos larmes, s'il ne m'était permis d'en arrêter le cours c'était me décharger du poids de toutes mes infortunes; ensuite je n'ignorais pas que j'aurais plus d'empire pour ranimer votre courage si je sortais le pre mier de mon abattement; enfin, j'appréhendais qu'en laissant la victoire à la fortune, elle ne triomphât de quel qu'un des miens. Je m'efforçais donc de me traîner, la main appuyée sur ma blessure, pour mettre un appareil sur la vôtre. Mais d'autres motifs retardaient l'exécution de mon dessein. Je savais qu'il ne fallait pas heurter de front votre douleur, dans toute la vivacité de son premier accès les consolations n'auraient servi qu'à l'irriter et à l'aigrir. Dans les maladies même du corps rien de plus dangereux que des remèdes précipités. J'attendais donc que votre douleur épuisât ses forces d'elle - même et que disposée par le temps à supporter les consolations, elle devint plus docile et plus traitable. D'ailleurs, en par courant les monumens des génies les plus célèbres sur les moyens d'adoucir et de calmer les chagrins, je n'y.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a trove of philosophical reflections and insights into the subject of exile and its implications on human nature and well-being, written by the famed philosopher Seneca to console his mother following their enforced separation. Seneca, a prominent figure in Roman history, draws on his experiences and wisdom to address the emotional hardships of displacement and the accompanying loss of status and material possessions. Exploring the nature of true freedom, Seneca argues that external circumstances and physical location have no bearing on one's inner strength and resilience. He posits that happiness and contentment stem from within, and that finding solace in one's own virtues and intellect can transcend any hardship. The book delves into the historical and cultural context of exile, showing how this practice has been used as a tool of political control and social ostracism throughout history. Seneca examines the psychological impact of exile, including feelings of grief, anger, and isolation, while offering practical advice on how to cope with these emotions and maintain a sense of purpose and meaning. Ultimately, this book is a testament to the enduring power of philosophy in times of adversity. Seneca's timeless wisdom and compassionate insights provide valuable guidance and support for anyone grappling with the challenges of displacement, loss, or personal upheaval.
