Morals, By Way Of Abstract is a book written by the ancient Roman philosopher Seneca, Lucius Annaeus in 1739. The book is a collection of moral essays that cover a wide range of topics such as anger, friendship, death, and the importance of living a virtuous life. Seneca’s writing is influenced by Stoic philosophy, which emphasizes the importance of self-control, reason, and living in harmony with nature. He argues that true happiness can only be achieved through the cultivation of wisdom, courage, and justice. The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of morality. In the first section, Seneca discusses the importance of self-reflection and self-awareness in developing a virtuous character. He also explores the concept of fate and the role it plays in our lives.In the second section, Seneca discusses the importance of friendship and the role it plays in our lives. He argues that true friendship is based on mutual respect and understanding, and that it can be a source of great comfort and support in difficult times.In the third section, Seneca explores the nature of anger and how it can be controlled. He argues that anger is a destructive emotion that can lead to irrational behavior and that it is important to learn how to manage it.In the final section, Seneca discusses the importance of living a virtuous life and the role that philosophy can play in helping us achieve this goal. He argues that true happiness can only be achieved through the cultivation of wisdom, courage, and justice.Overall, Morals, By Way Of Abstract is a timeless work of philosophy that offers valuable insights into the nature of morality and the importance of living a virtuous life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
