¿DIÓGENES DE SINOPE PROTOANARQUISTA?

The observation of ancient cynicism as a philosophical precursor of anarchism has been made by a large number of scholars and specialists in both fields. The following paper aims to bring new insights into the cynicism-anarchism relationship. Our starting point is the figure of the proto-Cynic Diogenes of Sinope [412-402 / 325-321], whose heterodox philosophy, of which we do not preserve writings, has been the object of ambivalent receptions throughout history. We will see why he has been claimed as an illustrious member of the prehistory of anarchism and what new perspectives we can add to these studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
