Diogenes

New

The name of the ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes is known to all, as is his unusual behavior, which often went beyond the bounds of reason and propriety. But why did Diogenes behave this way? What drove him to leave his... native Sinope in Asia Minor and seek refuge in Athens? How did his contemporaries — primarily his fellow philosophers, whom he mercilessly mocked — regard him? How does his colorful personality fit into the history of Greece during the crisis of polis democracy in the 4th century BC? You can read all about this in the book by the famous historian of antiquity Igor Surikov.
