The “Seneca Reading Group” meets every SECOND and FOURTH Thursday of the month at 7:00-8:00 p.m. PT. Our goal as always is to (A) understand what Seneca is saying, (B) critique it, and (C) explore the implications it has for our personal practice.
The group is currently going through Seneca’s On the Tranquility of the Mind translated by Elaine Fantham (2014), which discusses how to maintain tranquility and make moral progress while staying active in your community. (https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo5759240.html).
The upcoming meeting will be on SECTIONS 6-17 of the essay. Please do as much reading as you can in advance of the meeting in order to get the most out of the discussion. Let Justin know if you need a PDF of the reading.
