LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA
LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA / LUCIUS ANNAEUS SENECA THE YOUNGER WAS A ROMAN STOIC PHILOSOPHER, STATESMAN, DRAMATIST, AND HUMORIST.
SENECA WAS BORN IN CORDOBA IN HISPANIA, AND RAISED IN ROME, WHERE HE WAS TRAINED IN RHETORIC AND PHILOSOPHY. HIS FATHER WAS SENECA THE ELDER, HIS ELDER BROTHER WAS LUCIUS JUNIUS GALLIO ANNAEANUS, AND HIS NEPHEW WAS THE POET LUCAN.
IN AD 41, SENECA WAS EXILED TO THE ISLAND OF CORSICA UNDER EMPEROR CLAUDIUS, BUT WAS ALLOWED TO RETURN IN 49 TO BECOME A TUTOR TO NERO.
WHEN NERO BECAME EMPEROR IN 54, SENECA BECAME HIS ADVISOR AND, TOGETHER WITH THE PRAETORIAN PREFECT SEXTUS AFRANIUS BURRUS, PROVIDED COMPETENT GOVERNMENT FOR THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF NEROβS REIGN.
SENECAβS INFLUENCE OVER NERO DECLINED WITH TIME, AND IN 65 SENECA WAS FORCED TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE FOR ALLEGED COMPLICITY IN THE PISONIAN CONSPIRACY TO ASSASSINATE NERO, IN WHICH HE WAS LIKELY TO HAVE BEEN INNOCENT. HIS STOIC AND CALM SUICIDE HAS BECOME THE SUBJECT OF NUMEROUS PAINTINGS.
AS A WRITER SENECA IS KNOWN FOR HIS PHILOSOPHICAL WORKS, AND FOR HIS PLAYS, WHICH ARE ALL TRAGEDIES. AS A TRAGEDIAN, HE IS BEST KNOWN FOR PLAYS SUCH AS HIS MEDEA, THYESTES, AND PHAEDRA.
SENECAβS INFLUENCE ON LATER GENERATIONS IS IMMENSEβDURING THE RENAISSANCE HE WAS βA SAGE ADMIRED AND VENERATED AS AN ORACLE OF MORAL.β
