“Book Descriptions: Included in this volume are the dialogues On the Shortness of Life and On Tranquility of Mind , which are eloquent classic statements of Stoic ideals of fortitude and self-reliance. This selection also features extracts from Natural Questions , Seneca's exploration of such phenomena as the cataracts of the Nile and earthquakes, and the Consolation of Helvia , in which he tenderly tries to soothe his mother's pain at their separation.
