 we suffer more in imagination than
reality if it does happen you know what
you're going to do if it doesn't happen
you keep doing what you're
doing so where do we start with senica I
get this question all the time I've
heard about senica from my writings or I
saw some quote on Instagram and I want
to read more about senica I was
introduced to senica when I was 19 or so
years old maybe 20 I got really lucky I
feel like I bought the right translation
at the right time of my life life hasn't
been the same since reading senica and
so in this episode I want to talk to you
about who this amazing complicated
fascinating figure was why you should
read him what you should read of him and
how you should read senica hopefully by
the end of it you will know the right
place to start with such a beautiful
fascinating wise
thinker senica is actually born most
scholar think the same year as Jesus
Christ they're actually both born in
provinces of the Roman Empire and they
both become immensely influential
philosophers in their own time senica's
father is a wealthy man uh a bit of a
writer himself he has his young children
tutored in philosophy did he want them
to be philosophers no he was probably
planning for senica to become a lawyer
and that's the track that senica's on as
an early young man until what we think
is a tuberculosis diagnosis sends him
all the way to Egypt he's he's forced to
travel to Egypt where they think the
climate will be better for his health
right as his legal career is about to
take off he's forced to take almost a
10year break way out far away from Rome
early on senica is learning as he talks
about a lot in letters uh and his essays
that fortune is not fair that fortune is
full of reversals that fortune surprises
us that it it lands these blows upon us
all we can do is choose how we respond
senica makes his way back to Rome and
his political career picks up where he
left off and he climbs his way back to
the top of Roman political life but
again just as senica's political career
is beginning to take off he runs a foul
of the emperor Caligula and then
Claudius and he's exiled he's sent away
from Rome the place that he had just
come back back to he's sent away again
we're told that senica was Superior to
all of the senators in Rome he's the
wisest most brilliant most admired guy
and this is probably why he is sent away
and he goes to Corsica an island in the
Mediterranean where he would spend the
next 7 or 8 years so twice now in
senica's life he's been sent away for no
fault of his own and this is where we
think senica begins writing senica does
not take this Exile well it's hard on
him although he does console his mother
at the loss of her son you can tell we
can tell he's feeling really sorry for
himself he's struggling he's not talking
about these ideas in the abstract but
really struggling with them as a human
being imagine you're just as your career
is taking off you're forced to go move
to a rock in the middle of the ocean
none of your friends none of the things
you hold here that would be so hard and
that's what stoicism is it's not just a
philosophy in theory it's a philosophy
for hard adversity just like that senica
is given a reprieve when he is brought
back to Rome to tutor a young boy who is
in line to be Emperor and the boy's
about 16 years old he takes to senica
Sena to the boy and he begins to tutor
this boy just as he had been tutored in
philosophy and then this boy does become
emperor this all sounds like a very
happy story but it gets really
complicated because that boy is nearo
senica the stoic philosopher is a tutor
and then works in the court and holds
position of leadership during the
administration of one of the worst Roman
emperors becomes this really provocative
question was senica complicit in Nero's
crime or was senica the adult in the
room the first couple years of Nero's
Reign go really well senica is credited
for that but then as Nero spins into
Insanity uh senica is also implicated in
that so it's this tension right did
senica live up to his teachings was
senica selfless or was senica a part of
the problem senica was rich he was
wealthy is this a contradiction some
people thought so even in senica's time
they did but senica says we should cease
to forbid philosophers from the
possession of money no one has condemned
wisdom to Poverty the philosopher can
own ample wealth he said but it should
have been rested from no man nor should
it be stained with another man's blood
wealth acquired without harm to Any Man
Without base dealing is no less
honorable and a should make no man grown
except the spiteful and this is true
this the problem is you know senica did
get Blood Stained money he got it from
Nero but his point was that a
philosopher could be rich What mattered
is were you indifferent to the wealth
did the if you had the wealth you should
enjoy it and in fact Marcus really says
this about his stepfather antoninus he
says what makes antoninus great is that
while he had abundance he enjoyed it but
when it was gone or when it wasn't there
he didn't miss it but in the end Nero
turns on senica or senica turns on Nero
and and senica is driven from public
life one more time and this is I think
where he spends uh the rest of his life
doing his most important work he says
the duty of a man is to be useful to his
fellow man if possible to be the useful
to many failing this to be useful to a
few failing this to be useful to his
neighbors and failing this to himself
for when he helps others he advances the
general interest of mankind I think
senica's most important work is not his
political work it's his writing his
writing is what survives to us today
what I hope you will start reading he
knew what it was like to be
