About this book

Seneca in English (Penguin Classics) by Seneca, Lucius Annaeus. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780140446678.

Like his plays, the life of Seneca (c. 4 B.C.-A.D. 65) contains the dramatic elements of modern tragedy. Shakespeare adapted Senecan principles in his plays, and Senecas works were imitated by a wide range of later writers. This superb selection of translations, adaptations, and variations--from the 1550s to the 1990s--vividly demonstrates Senecas continuing presence in English drama and poetry.
