"How to Die" offers a profound exploration of the theme of death and dying, based on the teachings of the Roman Stoic Seneca. In this work, edited and translated by James S. Romm, Seneca's remarkable meditations on death are compiled for the first time in a single volume. Seneca, who believed that life is a journey towards death, encourages readers to constantly engage with death and prepare for it. He discusses the significance of a good death as part of a fulfilled life and highlights how death can free us from pain and oppression. The new translation is not only clear and engaging but is also complemented by an insightful introduction, notes, the original Latin texts, and an epilogue that includes Tacitus' account of Seneca's tragic suicide.
