This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On The Happy Life
It focuses specifically on his qualified defense of Epicurus' version of hedonism, which he views as different in those respects from other forms of hedonism, which often use Epicureanism as a cover for their indulgence.
