This selection of Seneca's letters shows him upholding the ethical ideals of Stoicism—the wisdom of the self-possessed person immune to overmastering emotions and life’s setbacks—while valuing friendship and the courage of ordinary men, and criticizing the harsh treatment of slaves and the cruelties in the gladiatorial arena. The humanity and wit revealed in Seneca’s interpretation of Stoicism is a moving and inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind

Goodreads Review of Letters from a Stoic

4 izar

A good collection of Seneca's letters, which were more likely meant as publicly-read essays than letters themselves. Not all of them can be found here; this collection has approximately forty of them. Yet, for a sense of Stoic philosophy, it's well-worth the read.
