How to Have a Life : An Ancient Guide to Using Our Time Wisely
Book 23 of 46: Ancient Wisdom for Modern ReadersLanguage: English
Published by Princeton University Press, Princeton, 2022
ISBN 10: 0691219125 ISBN 13: 9780691219127
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust jacket is fully intact, only lightly rubbed at edges. All pages clean, crisp and fresh. Overall, very sound and presentable.Publisher's note: "In his moral treatise, De Brevitate Vitae("On the Shortness of Life"), the Stoic philosopher Seneca explored ways to change our experience of time so as to get more enrichment from the present, to diminish regret for the past and anxiety about the future, and to make our lives feel long even though death might cut them short at any moment. As he famously said, "it is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it. . Life is long if you know how to use it." The problem of how to make the most of our time is a universal one and especially pressing in a society like ours, which puts a high value on the maximizing fulfillment. The fear of missing out, or FOMO as it is known in popular culture, attests to our deep need for the kind of teaching Seneca offers: A guide to living in the moment and making time count. "Live headlong," "Consider each day a life"--In these ways Seneca expressed something like what we mean by "Be here now." In this volume for our Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers series, his fourth, James Romm proposes a new translation of Seneca's De Brevitate Vitae along with selections from other moral essays, especially "On the Happy Life" and "On Tranquillity of Mind," that similarly deal with the need to use time well. Several of the "Moral Epistles" will be drawn on as well, including the very first letter in his immense collection, where Seneca tells his addressee, Lucilius, that "all other things are foreign to us; time alone is ours."-- Provided by publisher xxi, 175 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Philosophy; Time management; Life; ISBN: 0691219125. ISBN/EAN: 9780691219127. Add. Inventory No: 231030HAD1-1043.
