«Come vivere a lungo e La provvidenza» is an essay on philosophy by Seneca, published by Newton Compton Editori in paperback (100 pages, in Italian).
The volume brings together two dialogues by Seneca: in De brevitate vitae he argues that life is not short, but that we shorten it by spending it on other people's concerns, and that those who cultivate themselves lengthen it; in De providentia he maintains that the misfortunes of the good are trials that the divinity sends to exercise their virtue.
Complete edition with the Latin text on facing pages and an Italian version by Mario Scaffidi Abbate, published in 1995 in the Tascabili economici Newton series.
For readers of philosophy and Greco-Roman classical literature who want to approach these texts with the original Latin facing them.
