Abstract

This essay makes a meditation about the feasibility of (with the aim of reconsidering contemporarity) a doctrine like that of the stoics, keeping in mind the historical distance between that theory and our time. To accomplish this, we have considered some aspects that allow the estimation of the reasons why this theory can be used for this purpose. Among them, we remark: a glance to the life of one of the most emblematic authors of the stoic school, Lucius Annaeus Seneca. The sense of stoicism as a way of life and philosophy doctrine, and a small review to Seneca’s work to, finally, conclude remarking some common criteria between stoic interests and those of our times.
