'Anger,' Seneca notes, 'is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.' In 'On Anger,' Seneca delves into this powerful emotion, taking the reader on a journey that is both thoughtful and instructive. Rather than dismissing anger as an unchangeable part of the human condition, Seneca dissects it, laying bare its roots and exposing its many faces. From understanding its cause to learning how to master it, the reader is guided through a series of reflections that are as relevant today as they were in ancient Rome. With wisdom and eloquence, 'On Anger' provides a practical guide to this complex emotion.
