This book brings together two works by the Roman philosopher and writer Seneca: 'Consolations' and 'Apocolocintosis'. In 'Consolations', Seneca offers words of consolation and reflection on loss and pain, addressed to different people in times of affliction. In 'Apocolocintosis', Seneca satirizes the deification of Emperor Claudius after his death, using a humorous and biting style to criticize the vanity and corruption of power.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca the Younger, usually known mononymously as Seneca, was a Stoic philosopher of Ancient Rome, a statesman, a dramatist, and in one work, a satirist, from the post-Augustan age of Latin literature.
