MAURACH, G., Seneca. Leben und Werk. Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft, Darmstadt, 1991. 218p. Hard bound. 'This is an expanded version of a book written in 1989 and designed primarily to help students to understrand the complex structure and philosophical thought of Seneca's prose works. (...) The remainder of the book analyses his prose works individually and the tragedies as a group. (...) The book manages to achieve a great deal in a relatively concise format, providing an account of Seneca's life and an anlysis of all of his extant works, while also giving students a good idea of the different scholarly approaches that have been taken. M. likes reading Seneca and makes the reader feel that he is interesting to read, and, indeed, to read more than once.' (MIRIAM GRIFFIN on the third edition in The Classical Review (New Series), pp.68-70). € 17.50 (Antiquarian) ISBN: 9783534110285
