Anger, Mercy, Revenge by Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BCE - 65 CE) was a Roman Stoic philosopher, dramatist, statesman, and adviser to the emperor Nero, all during the Silver Age of Latin literature. This title is a fresh and compelling series of new English-language translations of his works in eight accessible volumes.
"The translations strike that difficult balance between fidelity to the original and natural English idiomLatinless readers will not be confused, philosophically minded readers will appreciate the citations, and classicists will find in the notes the discussion and arguments they may want to clarify the original.... An admirable effort to bring Seneca to a wider audience." (Bryn Mawr Classical Review)"
Robert A. Kaster is professor of classics and the Kennedy Foundation Professor of Latin Language and Literature at Princeton University. He is the author of Emotion, Restraint, and Community in Ancient Rome, among other volumes. Martha C. Nussbaum is the Errist Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics at the University of Chicago and the author of Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities and Creating Capabilities: The Human Development Approach, among other volumes.
