The Complete Works of Lucius Annaeus Seneca is a fresh and compelling series of new English-language translations of his works in eight accessible volumes. Edited by world-renowned classicists Elizabeth Asmis, Shadi Bartsch, and Martha C. Nussbaum, this engaging collection restores Seneca—whose works have been highly praised by modern authors from Desiderius Erasmus to Ralph Waldo Emerson—to his rightful place among the classical writers most widely studied in the humanities. On Benefits, written between 56 and 64 CE, is a treatise addressed to Seneca’s close friend Aebutius Liberalis. The longest of Seneca’s works dealing with a single subject—how to give and receive benefits and how to express gratitude appropriately—On Benefits is the only complete work on what we now call “gift exchange” to survive from antiquity. Benefits were of great personal significance to Seneca, who remarked in one of his later letters that philosophy teaches, above all else, to owe and repay benefits well.

Seneca turned into a well-known Roman logician, baby-kisser, and creator who lived within the first century AD. In his writings, he talks approximately the complex nature of relationships and the moral problems that arise when humans provide and obtain gifts. Along with the reasons for giving and the responsibilities that come with getting advantages, Seneca talks about the character of gratitude on this big painting. He talks approximately the ethical and mental elements of generosity and makes the case that actual distinctive feature isn't always just the act of giving, however additionally the thoughts and plans at the back of it. Seneca's philosophy writings on distinctive feature and reciprocity can assist human beings discern out the way to behave in social situations. People are instructed to broaden an actual experience of thank you and to think about the ethical issues that arise once they deliver and receive. "On Benefits" is an eternal photo that offers us treasured insights into how humans suppose and act morally. Seneca's effective and thought-frightening take a look at of kindness, gratitude, and ethical reciprocity is still applicable today. This painting is an important addition to Stoic philosophy and a source of setting up with understanding for folks who are considering how complex human relationships can be.

Book excerpt: Seneca, the favourite classic of the early fathers of the church and of the Middle Ages, whom Jerome, Tertullian, and Augustine speak of as "Seneca noster," who was believed to have corresponded with St. Paul, and upon whom [Footnote: On the "De Clementia," an odd subject for the man who burned Servetus alive for differing with him.] Calvin wrote a commentary, seems almost forgotten in modern times. Perhaps some of his popularity may have been due to his being supposed to be the author of those tragedies which the world has long ceased to read, but which delighted a period that preferred Euripides to Aeschylus: while casuists must have found congenial matter in an author whose fantastic cases of conscience are often worthy of Sanchez or Escobar. Yet Seneca's morality is always pure, and from him we gain, albeit at second hand, an insight into the doctrines of the Greek philosophers, Zeno, Epicurus, Chrysippus, &c., whose precepts and system of religious thought had in cultivated Roman society taken the place of the old worship of Jupiter and Quirinus. Since Lodge's edition (fol. 1614), no complete translation of Seneca has been published in England, though Sir Roger L'Estrange wrote paraphrases of several Dialogues, which seem to have been enormously popular, running through more than sixteen editions. I think we may conjecture that Shakespeare had seen Lodge's translation, from several allusions to philosophy, to that impossible conception "the wise man," and especially from a passage in "All's Well that ends Well," which seems to breathe the very spirit of "De Beneficiis."
