Description
The Stoics admired upright ideals, and "Letter From a Stoic" exemplifies the righteous lifestyle from their perspective. Seneca's disapproval at the arena performances or his criticism of the cruel treatment of slaves, for example, show how far ahead of their time many of his ideas were. Seneca's "disguised essays" had a philosophical tone and were written in the "pointed" style of the Latin Silver Age. They were obviously written with posterity in mind.
