Description



Book Synopsis



Dedicado a Nerón a comienzos de su reinado, este tratado constituye una loa a su personalidad, pero también una muestra del camino ideal para el buen gobernante, aquel que pudo seguir el emperador cuando todavía admitía consejo. "Sobre la clemencia" nos habla del valor y el ejercicio de la virtud, pero sobre todo es uno de los primeros y más preciados «espejos de príncipes» de nuestra literatura.

Dedicated to Nero at the beginning of his reign, this treatise is a praise to his personality, but also a sample of the ideal path for the good ruler, the one that the emperor could follow when he still accepted advice. "On Clemency" speaks to us of the value and exercise of virtue, but above all it is one of the first and most precious "mirrors of princes" in our literature.



About the Author



Séneca fue uno de los intelectuales más importantes del Imperio Romano. Nació en Córdoba, en el año 4 a.C., en el seno de una familia acomodada de la alta sociedad. Su educación en gramática y retórica y su fama pronto lo llevaron a Roma y le brindaron roles de poder en el senado. El cargo más destacable de su vida política fue, sin duda, su papel como consejero de Nerón durante un mandato complicado, en el que el filósofo encubrió los crímenes del joven emperador y toleró su carácter despótico.

Pere Ginard es ilustrador y cineasta y su trabajo se basa en la exploración del movimiento perpetuo y la creación melancólica de duelos, triunfos, monstruos, prodigios y arrebatos místicos, así como observaciones a veces inacabadas de cosas que giran hacia el sol y de personas rubias de pelo ondulado con tendencia a la calvicie. Ha expuesto sus filmes y dibujos en numerosas salas de arte y festivales tanto nacionales como internacionales, publicado diversos libros y ganado premios relacionados con la fotografía, la ilustración y el mundo audiovisual.

Seneca was one of the most important intellectuals of the Roman Empire. He was born in Córdoba, in the year 4 BC, in the bosom of a wealthy family of high society. His education in grammar and rhetoric and his fame soon brought him to Rome and gave him roles of power in the senate. The most notable position in his political life was, without a doubt, his role as Nero's advisor during a complicated mandate, in which the philosopher covered up the crimes of the young emperor and tolerated his despotic character.

Pere Ginard is an illustrator and filmmaker and his work is based on the exploration of perpetual motion and the melancholic creation of duels, triumphs, monsters, prodigies and mystical outbursts, as well as sometimes unfinished observations of things turning towards the sun and of blonde people with wavy hair with a tendency to baldness. He has exhibited his films and drawings in numerous art galleries and festivals both national and international, published several books and won photography, illustration, and audiovisual related awards.
