Article · Italiano
Lucio Anneo Seneca (in latino: Lucius Annaeus Seneca; Corduba, 4 a.C. – Roma, 19 aprile 65), anche noto semplicemente come Seneca o Seneca il giovane, è stato un filosofo, drammaturgo e politico romano, tra i massimi esponenti dello stoicismo eclettico di età imperiale (nuova Stoà). Attivo in molti campi, compresa la vita pubblica, fu senatore e questore durante l'età giulio-claudia. Condannato a morte da Caligola, fu graziato dall'intervento di un'amante dello stesso imperatore. Venne più tardi condannato alla relegatio in insulam dal successore Claudio, che poi però lo richiamò a Roma, dove divenne tutore e precettore del futuro imperatore Nerone su incarico della madre Giulia Agrippina Augusta. Dopo il cosiddetto "quinquennio di buon governo" o "quinquennio felice" (54-59), in cui Nerone governò saggiamente sotto la tutela di Seneca, l'ex allievo e il maestro si allontanarono sempre di più, portando il filosofo al ritiro a vita privata che aveva a lungo agognato. Tuttavia, Seneca, forse implicato in una congiura contro Nerone, cadde vittima della repressione dell'imperatore, scegliendo il suicidio. Seneca influenzò profondamente lo stoicismo romano di epoca successiva: suoi allievi furono Gaio Musonio Rufo (maestro di Epitteto) e Aruleno Rustico, nonno di Quinto Giunio Rustico, che fu uno dei maestri dell'imperatore filosofo Marco Aurelio.
