Stoic Philosophy more relevant than ever...
To be untroubled by nothing is a great thing, indeed, the greatest of all, and it is a thing that raises man almost to the level of god.
The best-selling series "Choices" of Acid Publications is enriched with seven new titles, seven new small books, big thoughts, which come to be added to the previous 16 titles.
THE Seneca he "refashions" the concept of gaiety, superseding Democritus, through his dialogue with his friend Serenus. The Roman orator tries to cure him of anxiety and worry, using several of the methods of what would later be called Stoic philosophers and their understanding of the importance of mental health and peace for a happy person.
What begins as comfort and advice to a troubled friend tormented by existential problems and anxieties evolves into a deep dive into the human soul, where all the weapons for the war that rages within us from the end of the world to the end are hidden. – that is, until we conquer the good above all else: spiritual peace, that special quality that even today, in this age in which we live, and while almost two millennia have passed since the eminent Stoic philosopher Seneca wrote in praise of it, it seems to be identified with the very salvation of man.
