Listen "Seneca, Letter 99 - Consolation For Loss Of A Child - Sadler's Lectures"
Episode Synopsis
This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's Letters, this one looking at Letter 99
In this letter, after a brief introductory paragraph, Seneca reproduces a letter sent to a different correspondent Marullus when he had lost a young child. Although Seneca says that his goal is not to console but rather to offer criticism, he in effect does both of these, offering a number of considerations that can prove helpful to a person who is grieving the loss of a loved one.
