From Athens to the Senate: Rome’s Philosophical Makeover | Philosophy in a Nutshell Ep. 5

In this episode of Classics Unraveled: Philosophy in a Nutshell, Jon upsets Roman philosophy fans everywhere.

Today Jon will unpack Cicero, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius and break down the journey that Greek philosophy took to influence these Roman thinkers. He'll walk through how these Romans interpreted, adapted, and integrated Hellenic philosophy into the function and expression of the Roman state.

From the government-sculpting work of Cicero, to Seneca's Stoicism 101, to the practical outworking of Marcus Aurelius's Meditations, this episode unravels the core tenants of the philosophical landscape of the Roman world.
