Diogenes 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 by Robert S. Brumbaugh 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.

50. Biographies: Philosophers: Diogenes (BC, C412-323). Short note on the life and work of Diogenes. Diogenes The Cynic (BC, c412-323) Diogenes was chief among the school known as the cynics, though possibly not representative of it http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Biographies/Philosophy/Diogenes.htm

[Back To A List Of Philosophers] Diogenes "The Cynic" (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.)
