Synopsis

Excerpt from L. Annaei Senecae: De Beneficiis Libri VII, De Clementia Libri II

As praestant et parem desiderant regulam, quae, ut ait Hecaton, difficilis est; omne enim honestum in arduo est, etiam quod vicinum honesto est; non enim tantum fieri debet, sed ratione fieri. Hac duce per totem vitam.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a collection of essays by the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca, investigates the nature of giving and receiving benefits, a topic he considered one of the most important of ethical themes. In this volume, Seneca argues that acts of kindness should not be given or received with the expectation of return, and that gratitude is one of the highest virtues humans can possess. He contrasts the benefits that are bestowed in order to gain some form of social or economic capital with those that are given freely without regard for return, the latter of which Seneca argues are the truest and most noble kind of gift. The essays in this volume are not only relevant to Seneca's own time but also contain concepts relevant to the modern world and the human experience of gratitude and reciprocity.
