By the way, have you read the firsthand account of Seneca's death? I have a copy I would be glad to email you. Seneca is a must-read among the classics in my opinion and one should even go so far as to make him part of their daily bread, for though he is a Stoic, his wisdom is good for all mankind, and a lesson to modern wits who place so much virtue in the passions and the body. I think it could be possible to become a saint by reading nothing more than Seneca and the Bible, for his works are such a lesson in virtue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5263951160049720772.post-80214410283941092432008-11-12T02:23:00.000+01:002008-11-12T02:23:00.000+01:00I love the painting of Joan of Arc.
