商品簡介
Navia (philosophy, New York Institute of Technology) sifts through the contemporary evidence about the life of the strange Greek philosopher, who died in 323 BC, and through reports of his writing, none of which remains, to clarify his attitude to his world. He discusses the rhetoric and philosophy of cynicism, Diogenes' metamorphosis and presence, and his life. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
