This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on Seneca's Letter 74, in which he discusses the nature of virtue according to the Stoics, and why virtue is the genuine good, the "honorable" (honestum). According to him, those who view other things like wealth, pleasure, honor, or the body as goods are mistaken and set themselves up for misery by subjecting themselves to fortune.
