#4 Die Philosophie muss uns beschützen: Senecas Epistulae morales

from Noch nicht am Ende - Der Latein-Podcast · host Gero und Sina

Wie erreicht man ein gutes Leben? Was ist die Aufgabe des Menschen in der Welt? Und was hat die Philosophie damit zu tun? Seneca thematisiert genau das in den 124 Briefen seines späteren und heute bekanntesten Werkes Epistulae morales und legt seinem Adressaten, Lucilius, dabei seine Moralphilosophie, seine Weisheit und seine Lebenserfahrung in Kombination mit fiktiven Anekdoten dar und gibt Anweisungen und Ratschläge.   Textstellen: 1) Ita fac, mi Lucili: vindica te tibi, et tempus quod adhuc aut auferebatur aut subripiebatur aut excidebat collige et serva. […] Fac ergo, mi Lucili, quod facere te scribis, omnes horas complectere! […] Dum differtur vita transcurrit. (Sen.epist.1)   2) Scio, Lucili, hoc tibi liquere neminem posse beate vivere, ne tolerabiliter quidem, sine sapientiae studio, et beatam vitam perfecta sapientia effici, ceterum tolerabilem etiam inchoata. […] Perseverandum est et assiduo studio robur addendum, donec bona mens sit quod bona voluntas est. […] Illud ante omnia vide, utrum in philosophia an in ipsa vita profeceris. […] Dicet aliquis: “quid mihi prodest philosophia, si fatum est? Quid prodest, si deus rector est? Quid prodest, si casus imperat?” […] Quidquid est ex his, Lucili, vel si omnia haec sunt, philosophandum est; sive nos inexorabili lege fata constringunt, sive arbiter deus universi cuncta disposuit, sive casus res humanas sine ordine imppellit et iactat, philosophia nos tueri debet. Haec, adhortabitur, ut deo libenter pareamus, ut fortunae contumaciter; haec docebit, ut deum sequaris, feras casum. (Sen.epist.16)   _________________________________ Musik Intro und Outro: Don't Feel (So Low) by Mid-Air Machine (Free Music Archive)(CC BY-SA)
