何についての本か
ギリシア哲学者たちの生涯・学説・逸話を、タレスからエピクロスまで。遺言、書簡、著作目録を添える。
背景と歴史
ディオゲネス・ラエルティオスは三世紀ごろの人で、哲学者ではなかった。編纂者であり、しかもさほど批判的ではない。検証可能な事実と、警句や風説とを、断りもなく混ぜてしまう。それでもなお彼は代替不能である。理由は居心地の悪いものだ。多くの古代哲学者について、われわれに届いた唯一の典拠が彼だからである。エピクロスの三書簡と『主要教説』が現存するのは、彼がここに書き写したからにほかならない。したがって彼は、しばしば何とも突き合わせようがないと知ったうえで読むべきである。

IX. Now these were they who were accounted wise men. Thales, Solon, Periander, Cleobulus, Chilo, Bias, Pittacus. To these men add Anacharsis the Scythian, Myson the Chenean, Pherecydes the Syrian, and Epimenides the Cretan; and some add, Pisistratus, the tyrant: These then are they who were called the wise men. X. But of Philosophy there arose two schools. One derived from Anaximander, the other from Pythagoras. Now, Thales had been the preceptor of Anaximander, and Pherecydes of Pythagoras. And the one school was called the Ionian, because Thales, being an Ionian (for he was a native of Miletus), had been the tutor of Anaximander;—but the other was called the Italian from Pythagoras, because he spent the chief part of his life in Italy. And the Ionic school ends with Clitomachus, and Chrysippus, and Theophrastus; and the Italian one with Epicurus; for Anaximander succeeded Thales, and he was succeeded again by Anaximenes, and he by Anaxagoras, and he by Archelaus, who was the master of Socrates, who was the originator of moral philosophy. And he was the master of the sect of the Socratic philosophers, and of Plato, who was the founder of the old Academy; and Plato’s pupils were Speusippus and Xenocrates; and Polemo was the pupil of Xenocrates, and Crantor and Crates of Polemo. Crates again was the master of Arcesilaus, the founder of the Middle Academy, and his pupil was Lacydes, who gave the new Academy its distinctive principles. His pupil was Carneades, and he in his turn was the master of Clitomachus. And this school ends in this way with Clitomachus and Chrysippus. Antisthenes was the pupil of Socrates, and the master of Diogenes the Cynic; and the pupil of Diogenes was Crates the Theban; Zeno the Cittiæan was his; Cleanthes was his; Chrysippus was his.…
