Despite Diogenes Apollonia's popularity in the fifth century, he has been largely overlooked by histories of philosophy and is often dismissed as an eclectic thinker. The author discusses Diogenes' contributions to the history of philosophy, particularly his relationship between his noetics and teleology, and his role in promoting the doctrine of "material monism". The author also examines the reception of Diogenes' thought and the origin of his reputation as an eclectic. Finally, the author compares Theophrastus' criticism of Diogenes to Plato's criticism of Anaxagoras in the Phaedo, suggesting that Anaxagoras and Diogenes may have been more similar in their thinking than previously thought.

In this chapter I turn from Parmenides to two of his successors, examining the Pluralist theories of Anaxagoras and Empedocles, in order to explore the influence of Parmenides on these later thinkers. I argue that this influence appears in two fundamental aspects of their theories: in their conceptions of the fundamental entities that are the genuine beings of their cosmologies, and in the form (mixture and Separation of the basic entities) these cosmologies take. I begin with a short discussion of the question of Pluralism itself and then turn first to Anaxagoras and then to Empedocles. [Introduction, pp. 127 f.] |
