Abstract

BRAICOVICH, RODRIGO SEBASTIÁN. THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES AND INTELLECTUALISM IN ON ANGER BY SENECA. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2015, vol.64, n.158, pp.85-105. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v64n158.40098.

I try to show that a) the treatise On Anger by Seneca includes not one but two therapeutic strategies designed to avoid anger and that b) the second of these strategies -which has been neglected in the secondary literature- presents unsolvable problems when we contrast it with the Stoic theory of action, which is rooted in intellectualist premises.

Keywords : L. A. Seneca; Stoicism; intellectualism; passions.
