  • Philosophy and Community in Seneca's Prose. Oxford University Press, 2021. 224p. Hardback. S.'s volume offers a rigorous analysis of the particularities of Roman culture and of the importance of social relations in Seneca's exposition of how to live a Stoic life. S. proceeds through a series of incisive readings of selected Senecan texts, mainly drawn from the Epistulae morales (though incorporating passages from the dialogues, too), recognising that Seneca's choice of epistolography as a medium is an important indication of the centrality of interpersonal relationships to his project.
