In Search of Aristo of Ceos
In searching for an ancient philosopher whose works have all been lost one turns instinctively to Diogenes Laertius to find a biography; but for the Peripatetic Aristo of Ceos, alas- there is none. Diogenes' series of Peripatetic lives stops just short of Aristo, with his older associate, Lyco. This chapter discusses the major sources of information on Aristo of Ceos to determine what they knew about him, whether they can discriminate Aristo of C…
The Diaeretic Method and the Purpose of Arius’ Doxography
The ethical doxography attributed to Arius Didymus raises many baffling questions about Arius' sources, method, and purpose as a doxographer. Not the least of these is the question of Arius' personal role in the process that produced the text recorded by Stobaeus. The use of the diaeretic method shows that the Stoic and Peripatetic doxographies must be viewed as an aspect of the "theoretic" investigation of ethics, that is, as grounds for the eva…

Kings and constitutions: Hellenistic theories
In the Hellenistic age changing political conditions set the stage for refinement and adaptation of the classical analysis and evaluation of forms of government. The most significant development was the rise of powerful autocratic monarchies on the model of the Persian and Egyptian kingships. By the second century bc even the traditional kingships of mainland Greece, such as the Macedonian elected kingship and the limited dual kingship of Sparta,…
Plato, Carneades, and Cicero's Philus (Cicero, Rep . 3.8–31)
The centrepiece of Cicero's De re publica is a discussion of justice (Book 3). This discussion, which evokes the theme of the Platonic dialogue after which it was named, consists of a set of three speeches. It begins with a speech opposing justice, placed in the mouth of L. Furius Philus and alleged by him to be modelled on the second of a pair of speeches for and against justice delivered in Rome in 155 B.C. by the Greek Academic philosopher Car…

Polybius' applied political theory
Polybius' History book VI contains the most complete text of Hellenistic Greek political theory that has survived from antiquity and the only extended example of applied political theory. Polybius, an Achaean statesman turned historian, developed a political theory not to justify a political position, advocate an ideal constitution, or speculate on the nature of law, justice, political authority, or the relation of man to the state, but for the p…
Justice and Generosity: Studies in Hellenistic Social and Political Philosophy - Proceedings of the Sixth Symposium Hellenisticum
Hegel's often-echoed verdict on the apolitical character of philosophy in the Hellenistic age is challenged in this collection of essays, originally presented at the sixth meeting of the Symposium Hellenisticum. An international team of leading scholars reveals a vigorous intellectual scene of great diversity: analyses of political leadership and the Roman constitution in Aristotelian terms; Cynic repudiation of the polis - but accommodation with…

The fifth element in Aristotle's De Philosophia: A Critical Re-Examination
Twenty-five years ago Paul Wilpert called for a thorough re-examination of our knowledge of the content of Aristotle's lost work De Philosophia .
