Abstract

As an author, Seneca has a lot working against him. Should we really be presenting texts by someone like him to young students? This article does not ignore the difficult aspects of Seneca and his texts. But it also highlights some aspects that speak in Seneca’s favour. In terms of content, there is certainly a lot to learn from him. Even his style can be inspiring for modern readers.
