Abstract

For Seneca, the firmness of the Wise is shown in his ability to remain calm against attacks, as he explains in his treatise of that name. Attacks can come in the form of injustice, iniuria, and disparagement, contumelia; Seneca proves that neither of them affects the wise man. Contumelia is linked to contemptus in definition and conceptualization so that the remarks on how to deal with disparagement contain clues as to what contemptus means for Seneca. The article argues that Seneca understands the term in a double sense: First, contemptus denotes a reprehensible attitude. Second, it designates a kind of indifference which is to be understood in the context of Stoic apatheia.

塞内加《论智者的坚定》对话中的轻蔑

对于塞涅卡来说，智者的坚定表现在他对攻击保持冷静的能力上，正如他在同名论文中所解释的那样。攻击可以表现为不公正、不公正和轻蔑、侮辱；塞涅卡证明了这两者都不会影响智者。孔杜梅利亚在定义和概念上与轻蔑联系在一起，因此关于如何处理轻蔑的言论包含了轻蔑对塞涅卡意味着什么的线索。文章认为，塞涅卡从双重意义上理解这个词：首先，轻蔑表示一种应受谴责的态度。其次，它指定了一种冷漠，这种冷漠应该在斯多葛学派的无神论背景下理解。
