This research aims at considering the image of Lucilius, the recipient of the Epistulae Morales by Seneca (1srt. Century CE). The corpus of our investigation is the first book, and the methodology is based on intertextual approaches. The present paper shall discuss the role of the reader regarding the 2nd letter of the first book (Ep. 1.2), where Seneca exposes to Lucilius how the “ideal reader” should be.
