Welcome back to Dying Every Day (Stoicism in a Year). This is Day 25, and I’m excited to share another interview-style episode. This conversation is with James Romm (editor of How to Die and How to Have a Life from the Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers series by Princeton University Press). He is also the author of Dying Every Day: Seneca at the Court of Nero and several others, including a forthcoming book titled Plato and the Tyrant

James specializes in ancient Greek and Roman culture and civilization. As you’ll hear in the episode, he is very knowledgeable of the life and philosophy of Seneca. In this segment, we focus on preparing to die and what constitutes a good life.   

Dying Every Day (Stoicism in a Year) is a podcast by the Perennial Leader Project (and Perennial Meditations newsletter). Each episode turns a selected passage from Stoic philosophy into a guided meditation designed to help you (and me) contemplate what it means to live a ‘good’ life.
