adam_text | Once regarded as a minor
Socratic
school, Cynicism is now admired as one of
the more creative and influential philosophical movements in antiquity. First
arising in the city-states of late classical Greece, Cynicism thrived through
the Hellenistic and Roman periods, until the triumph of Christianity and the
end of pagan antiquity. In every age down to the present, its ideals of radical
simplicity and freedom have alternately inspired and disturbed onlookers.
This book presents the first general survey of Cynicism in antiquity for over
fifty years. Drawing on a wealth of new research, William Desmond offers a
comprehensive study of the most important ancient Cynics and their ideas,
examining their rejection of various traditional customs and the rebellious
lifestyle for which they were notorious. Desmond considers both the frag¬
mentary ancient evidence on the Cynics and the historical interpretations that
have shaped Cynic philosophy over the centuries. The central chapters locate
major Cynic themes
-
Cynicism s critique of convention, praise of natural
simplicity, advocacy of self-sufficiency, defiance of fortune, and celebration of
freedom
-
within the rich matrix of ideas debated by the ancient schools, and
shows that far from being pessimistic or nihilistic, as modern uses of the term
cynic suggest, the ancient Cynics were astonishingly optimistic regarding
human nature.
Cynics offers a fascinating introduction to some of the most colourful per¬
sonalities of antiquity and a school of thought which continues to generate
much philosophical interest today.
