A short overview of the classic cynic philosophy and it’s main representatives through contemporary writings. ( ) This is a short book, which contains extracts from writings by or about the Cynic philosophers. It consists of three main sections: a dialogue in which a Cynic philosopher attempts to justify his way of life, and in particular his shunning of material goods, to another speaker; a collection of quotes and anecdotes from various writers about the philosopher Diogenes; and an extract about the life of Bion. Although short, this was an interesting read about a topic I knew little about. I would have liked a little more background information and explanation, but it was still interesting to read.
