'Vidas, opiniones y sentencias de los filósofos más ilustres. Libro VI, Los cínicos.' Summary
Diógenes Laercio's "Lives, Opinions, and Sentences of the Most Illustrious Philosophers" is a collection of biographies and anecdotes about the Cynic philosophers, a group of ancient Greek philosophers who rejected conventional societal norms and values. The Cynics were known for their provocative critiques of institutions and customs, their irreverence, and their emphasis on living a simple, virtuous life. The book includes biographies of nine Cynic philosophers, including Diogenes of Sinope, the most famous Cynic philosopher. The book is a valuable source of information about the Cynic philosophers and their philosophy, and it is also a fascinating read for anyone interested in ancient Greek philosophy or the history of ideas.Book Details
