Seneca, On Anger Book 2 - Anger At Inanimate Things - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On Anger, book 2 It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 2 about the irrationality of getting angry with inanimate objects, since this involves attributing an intentionality and agency to them which they do not possess. Seneca also considers whether it is rational for us to transfer that anger to the makers, designers, or craftspeople of those inanimate objects, both human and divine.
