Abstract
Of all the ancient Greek philosophers, none lived in accordance with his beliefs in such an all-consuming fashion as Diogenes the Cynic. His every word, gesture, and action seem to have been calculated to call into question even the most mundane aspects of our daily lives. Diogenes’s own life, as the rich son of a banker who became a slave and then regained his freedom, raises a whole range of philosophical questions that have remained a source of inspiration down through the centuries for a great many remarkably inventive defamers and defenders.
