    Extractions: Announcer: In this first part of our video series of humorists in world literature, we are going to take a look at Diogenes the Cynic. Diogenes was a citizen of Athens during the time of Plato, although his approach to philosophy was a world away. Even though Diogenes left no surviving works, he was an influential figure in literature. In this presentation, you should pay attention to the ways in which Diogenes used humor to underscore the serious message of his cynic philosophy. Now, thanks to the magic of television, we will take you back 2300 years for an interview with Diogenes. Announcer: Good afternoon, Diogenes. In keeping with your reputation as a non-conformist, I see that you keep your bathtub outside of your house. Diogenes: The bathtub is my house. Announcer: I see. Well there must be some advantage to that. Diogenes: Certainly. No window can give a view like this, and if the neighborhood goes bad, I can just walk off with the house. Announcer: Have you always lived in a tub?

    Extractions: Diogenes of Sinope, d. c.320 BC, was a Greek philosopher, perhaps the most noted of the Cynics. He pursued the Cynic ideal of self-sufficiency, a life that was natural and not dependent upon the nonessential luxuries of civilization. A student of Antisthenes, he is credited with the development of the chreia (moral epigram), with a scandalous attack of convention entitled Republic (which influenced Zeno of Citium), and with tragedies illustrative of the human predicament. Because Diogenes believed that virtue was better revealed in action than in theory, he made his life a protest against what he thought of as a corrupt society. He is said to have lived in a large tub, rather than house, and to have gone about Athens with a lantern in the daytime, claiming to be looking for an honest manbut never finding one. In later art, Diogenes is often depicted in a torn cloak, with a dog, carrying a lantern. browse random add to art album send e-card purchase print A print of this picture is unavailable.

    Extractions: Other languages: Deutsch From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. , the biographer of the Greek philosophers , is supposed by some to have received his surname from the town of Laerte in Cilicia Of the circumstances of his life we know nothing. 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

    Extractions: There are two men from ancient Greece who bear the name of Diogenes. The most renowned of these is Diogenes of Sinope, the philosopher who walked throughout Athens carrying a lantern in daylight, searching for an honest man. The other is Diogenes Laertius, who lived in the 3rd Century CE and was an historian of various teachers of philosophy, including the teachings and customs of the Druids. The following are articles written about each of these men with whom I share not only a name, but common interests as well. Diogenes of Sinope, d. c.320 BC, was a Greek philosopher, perhaps the most noted of the CYNICS. He pursued the Cynic ideal of self-sufficiency, a life that was natural and not dependent upon the nonessential luxuries of civilization. A student of ANTISTHENES, he is credited with the development of the chreia (moral epigram), with a scandalous attack of convention entitled Republic (which influenced ZENO OF CITIUM), and with tragedies illustrative of the human predicament. Because Diogenes believed that virtue was better revealed in action than in theory, he made his life a protest against what he thought of as a corrupt society. He is said to have lived in a large tub, rather than house, and to have gone about Athens with a lantern in the daytime, claiming to be looking for an honest manbut never finding one.

    Extractions: The Life of Hipparchia Diogenes Laertius Book VI. 96-98 Hipparchia, the sister of Metrocles, was also captivated by philosophical discourse. Sister and brother were natives of Maroneia. She fell in love with Crates, his words and his way of life, and took no interest in any of the men who wanted to marry her, not their wealth, not their family connections, not their good looks. Crates was everything to her. It went so far that she threatened her parents with suicide if she could not be married to him. Her parents begged him to make her see reason, and Crates did everything he could. Finally when he was unable to convince her, he rose from his seat and threw off his clothes right in front of her. "Here," he announced, "is your husband-to-be, and this is all he owns: base your decision on this!" He wanted her to know that she would not be his partner unless she shared his way of life. The girl made her choice and taking up the same style of dress as his she made the rounds with her husband, consorted with him in public, and went out to dinner with him. Once she had gone to Lysimachus' house for a symposium, and while there she confounded Theodorus, nicknamed the Atheist, by positing the following argument:

The invention of this species of poetry is ascribed to Xenophones of Colophon. The Silli of Timon were in three books, in the first of which he spoke in his own person, and the other two are in the form of a dialogue between the author and Xenophanes of Colophon, in which Timon proposed question,s to which Xenophanes replied at length. The subject was a sarcastic account of the tenets of all philosophers, living and dead and unbounded field for skepticism and satire. They were in hexameter verse, and from the way in which they are mentioned by the ancient writers, as well as from the few fragments of them which have come down to us, it is evident that they were admirable productions.

58. Biographies: Philosophers: Diogenes (BC, C412-323).
    diogenes The Cynic (BC, c412-323). An interesting story is the one where theyoung Alexander the Great (356-323 BC) met diogenes, then a very old man.  
    http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Philosophy/Diogenes.htm
    
    Extractions: (BC, c412-323) Diogenes was chief among the school known as the cynics , though possibly not representative of it [Diogenes "carried the principles of the sect to an extreme of asceticism." ( OED .)]. It was said of Diogenes that throughout his life he "searched with a lantern in the daylight for an honest man." And though Diogenes apparently did not find an honest man, he had, in the process, "exposed the vanity and selfishness of man." ( Chambers The sect, known as the cynics, was founded by Antisthenes (444-370 BC), a pupil of Socrates ; it was "marked by an ostentatious contempt for ease, wealth, and the enjoyments of life." Diogenes was a pupil of Antisthenes. Diogenes, on coming to Athens from his native lands, Sinope, came as "a rake and spendthrift." After following under the spell of Antisthenes, Diogenes "became at once an austere ascetic, his clothing of the coarsest, his food the plainest, and his bed the bare ground. At length he found himself a permanent residence in a tub." (The meaning of cynicism today is to be found in the OED . "A person disposed to rail or find fault; now usually: One who shows a disposition to disbelieve in the sincerity or goodness of human motives and actions, and is wont to express this by sneers and sarcasms; a sneering fault-finder." The image of a cynic that has come to us is that of a dog.)

    Extractions: Then he asked: it is true that you live in that tub? or it is just one of those pranks filosophers do in order for the people to talk and admire them?I will ansewr with a question, Alexander! it is true you want to conquer Persia, and so unit all Greeks under your leadership? or do you do all this just for the sake of getting the admiration of people? He liked my answer! he smiled and ttouched my tub said: one tub full of wisdom. I liked this words and I feld flattered, but quickly replied: I prefer one drop of luck, that a tub full of wisdom, great King! Sometimes wisdom drives you to a bitter taste of vanith, and all your warks will stop in death! and one drop of luck can open streets you never could imagine and give you happines you never knew! Alexander anderstood every word and knew the meaning of luck in life better than anyone, then he came closer to me and said: I would like to do something very importand for you Diogenes. I know you chose this kind solitaire life, but I think that sometimes in your life you want something better.Ask me, what you want and it will be a pleasure for me to give it to you.
