Diogenes Laertius [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy]
diogenes Laertius (3rd cn. CE.). diogenes Laertius, native of Laertein Cilicia, was a biographer of ancient Greek philosophers.
http://www.iep.utm.edu/d/dioglaer.htm

Extractions: Diogenes Laertius, native of Laerte in Cilicia, was a biographer of ancient Greek philosophers. His Lives of the Philosophers Philosophoi Biol ), in ten books, is still extant and is an important source of information on the development of Greek philosophy. The period when he lived is not exactly known, but it is supposed to have been during the reigns of Septimius Severus and Caracalla. Because of his long and fairly sympathetic account of Epicurus, some think that Diogenes belonged to the Epicurean School, but this is not clear. He expresses his admiration for many philosophers, but his own allegiances, if any, are not stated. He divides all the Greek philosophers into two classes: those of the Ionic and those of the Italic school. He derives the first from Anaximander, the second from Pythagoras. After Socrates, he divides the Ionian philosophers into three branches: (a) Plato and the Academics, down to Clitomachus; (b) the Cynics, down to Chrysippus; (c) Aristotle and Theophrastus. The series of Italic philosophers consists, after Pythagoras, of the following: Telanges, Xenophanes, Parmenides, Zeno of Elea, Leucippus, Democritus, and others down to Epicurus. The first seven books are devoted to the Ionic philosophers; the last three treat of the Italic school. The work of Diogenes is a crude contribution towards the history of philosophy. It contains a brief account of the lives, doctrines, and sayings of most persons who have been called philosophers; and though the author is limited in his philosophical abilities and assessment of the various schools, the book is valuable as a collection of facts, which we could not have learned from any other source, and is entertaining as a sort of

He must have lived after Sextus Empiricus (c. AD ), whom he mentions, and before Stephanus of Byzantium (c. AD ), who quotes him. It is probable that he flourished during the reign of Alexander Severus (AD 222-235) and his successors. His own opinions are equally uncertain. By some he was regarded as a Christian ; but it seems more probable that he was an Epicurean . The work by which he is known, Lives of Eminent Philosophers (In latin De vitis, dogmatibus et apophthegmatibus clarorum virorum ), professes to give an account of the lives and sayings of the Greek philosophers. Although it is at best an uncritical and unphilosophical compilation, its value, as giving us an insight into the private life of the Greek sages, justly led Montaigne He treats his subject in two divisions which he describes as the Ionian and the Italian schools; the division is quite unscientific. The biographies of the former begin with
Diogenes Home Page (Mac Install)
Mac OS X. In theory there should be no problem running diogenes under Mac OS X, becauseit is a Unix variant with Perl installed by default. Installing diogenes.
http://www.dur.ac.uk/p.j.heslin/diogenes/mac_install.html

Extractions: WARNING for OS X users: There is an important bug you should be aware of There is now an up-to-date version of the Perl programming language available for the classic Mac OS, so Diogenes might run on older Macs, but I cannot say how to do it. I tried very briefly and was baffled by the MacPerl interface. Perhaps someone more familiar with the platform might be able to get it working. Let me know if you have any luck. In theory there should be no problem running Diogenes under Mac OS X, because it is a Unix variant with Perl installed by default. In practice, the Perl that comes with versions of OS X earlier than 10.3 is broken in a number of ways, and Diogenes elicits a nasty bug in it. So if you have a version of OS X earlier than 10.3, you should upgrade to a Perl version of at least 5.8, using Fink (described just below). Also necessary is LWP (or libwww-perl), which is a set of modules "which provides a simple and consistent application programming interface (API) to the World-Wide Web". Many Perl distributions include this library as standard, but I think even version 10.3 of OS X does not. So first we have to get the libwww modules working. The easiest way to get a fully-functioning installation of Perl on OS X is to use Fink . I have not tried this myself, but I have heard from others that it works well.
Diogenes Of Apollonia [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy]
Brief article on this thinker, from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/d/diogapol.htm

Extractions: Diogenes was a native of Apollonia in Crete, who was a pupil of Anaximenes and contemporary with Anaxagoras. Schleiermecher, however, affirms, from the internal evidence of the fragments of the two philosophers, that Diogenes preceded Anaxagoras. But Diogenes might have written before Anaxagoras and yet have been his junior, as we know was the case with Empedocles. Diogenes followed Anaximines in making air the primal element of all things; but he carried his views further, and regarded the universe as issuing from an intelligent principle, by which it was at once vivified and ordered, a rational as well as sensitive soul, but still without recognizing any distinction between matter and mind. Diogenes wrote several books on Cosmology Peri Phuseos

Voting local Illustration: Mary Evans Picture Library Diogenes was called Kynos, the Dog, which gives us the word cynicism, because he lived among dogs and had a snarling wit. There is no doubt that he was attracted to Athens because of its philosophy ("love of wisdom") and its democratic tradition, which meant that his determination to contradict everything around him had a context and a point to them. But by this time democracy was on the wane. One philosopher, hearing that Athens needed more horses for a war, suggested that Athenians just vote that asses are now horses.
Diogenes Laertius Lives Of The Philosophers: Aristippus, Translated By C.D. Yong

http://classicpersuasion.org/pw/diogenes/dlaristippus.htm

Extractions: Lives index THE LIVES AND OPINIONS OF EMINENT PHILOSOPHERS I. ARISTIPPUS was by birth a Cyrenean. but he came to Athens, as Aeschines says, having been attracted thither by the fame of Socrates. II. He having professed himself a Sophist, as Phanias, of Eresus, the Peripatetic, informs us, was the first of the pupils of Socrates who exacted money from his pupils, and who sent money to his master. And once he sent him twenty drachmas, but had them sent back again, as Socrates said that his daemon would not allow him to accept them; for, in fact, he was indignant at having them offered to him. And Xenophon used to hate him; on which account he wrote his book against pleasure as an attack upon Aristippus, and assigned the main argument to Socrates. Theodorus also, in his Treatise on Sects, has attacked him severely, and so has Plato in his book on the Soul, as we have mentioned in another place. III. But he was a man very quick at adapting himself to every kind of place, and time, and person, and he easily supported every change of fortune. For which reason he was in greater favour with Dionysius than any of the others, as he always made the best of existing circumstances. For he enjoyed what was before him pleasantly, and he did not toil to procure himself the enjoyment of what was not present. On which account Diogenes used to call him the king's dog. And Timon used to snarl at him as too luxurious, speaking somewhat in this fashion:

Ethics Of Isocrates, Aristotle, And Diogenes By Sanderson Beck
BECK index. Isocrates, Aristotle, and diogenes. This chapter is part of thebook ANCIENT WISDOM AND FOLLY, which has now been published. diogenes.
http://www.san.beck.org/EC22-Aristotle.html

Extractions: Diogenes Mentioned by Plato The writings attributed to Hippocrates apparently were collected at Cos from early scientific observations by Hippocrates and other physicians of his era. The Hippocratic Oath has had a tremendous influence on the ethics of medical practice from that day to this. Although Hippocrates criticized traditional beliefs that the gods cause illnesses, the oath begins by swearing to the gods of health. In the Hippocratic oath physicians promise to benefit patients and abstain from whatever is harmful, to give no deadly medicine nor give a woman a pessary to induce an abortion. In entering homes to benefit the sick they must abstain from any voluntary mischief including seduction. Hippocrates recommended that physicians study nature and the whole subject of medicine that shows what people are in relation to food and drink and other occupations with the effects of each. He noted that large quantities of undiluted wine make one feeble, although he occasionally prescribed some wine. General rules often have exceptions. Cheese, for example, is not equally injurious to everyone. The physician should know the effects of fasting or eating various amounts or drinking soups, and so on. His most famous aphorism is the very first one: Life is short, and art long;

Notes On Diogenes Laertius
A criticism of this author's reliability, based on his Life of Socrates.
http://www.uvm.edu/~jbailly/courses/Socrates/Notes/diogenes.html

Extractions: Diogenes Laertius is the author of the only work to survive from antiquity which describes the history of philosophy from its inception to the beginnings of the Common Era, called The Lives of the Philosophers . The latest philosopher he names is a student of Sextus Empiricus, which puts him in the middle of the 3rd century of the Common Era. He collected a hodge-podge of material excerpted from other sources, which happens to have survived, unlike many other authors' works. An example of argument using Diogenes Laertius On P. 334, Diogenes Laertius says that Socrates offered 25 drachmae as a fine at his trial, and then suggested free meals at the Prytaneum. He does not say where he got that information from, but at the beginning of the same paragraph, he says he derives his information from Justus of Tiberias. Thus it is not certain, but it is likely that Justus of Tiberias is the one who reports that Socrates proposed a 25 drachmae fine. On P. 334, Diogenes Laertius also says that Eubulides says that the fine Socrates offered was 100 drachmae. We know that Diogenes had read Plato's Apology The Apology says that Socrates first suggested free meals, then a 1 mina fine.
