Abstract

In his work Epistulae Morales (Moral Letters), which is one of the most authoritative sources of Roman Stoicism, Seneca not only examines the basic Stoic concepts but also discusses the views of other philosophical schools of antiquity such as Academia or Peripatos and makes us aware of the interpretations of the views of these schools in his own time. Among the letters that stand out in this regard, the Letter 65 occupies an important place in terms of dealing with the subject of causes (causae) in philosophy. So this study will analyze this letter and shed light on which ground Seneca tried to base his doctrine of cause built around the concepts of first cause, god, and efficient or creative reason.

Özet

Roma Stoasının elimizdeki en yetkin kaynaklarından olan "Epistulae Morales (Ahlak Mektupları)" adlı eserinde Seneca, Stoa felsefesinin temel yaklaşımlarını irdelemekle kalmaz, ele aldığı konular çerçe vesinde Akademeia veya Peripatos gibi Antik Çağ'ın diğer felsefe okullarının görüşlerini de tartışmaya açarak söz konusu okullara ait görüşlerin kendi zamanındaki yorumlanışlarından haberdar olmamızı sağlar. Bu bağlamda öne çıkan mektupların arasında, felsefede nedenler (causae) konusunun tartışıl dığı 65. Mektup önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, söz konusu mektuba ilişkin bir çözümleme sunulacak ve Seneca’nın ilk neden, tanrı, fail akıl kavramları etrafında örgülediği neden öğretisini hangi zeminde temellendirmeye çalıştığı açıklığa kavuşturulacaktır.
