Seneca was a stoic philosopher and rhetorician. He counselled Emperor Nero, and is often credited with rendering Stoicism more accessible to a larger audience. Stoicism is a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded by Zeno of Citium in Athens in the early 3rd century BC. Even though it is over 2000 years old, more and more people are discovering how Stoicism is not only relevant to modern times, but can be applied in very simple, yet strong ways.
