The name of the ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes is known to all, as well as his unusual behavior, often crossing the line of reason and decency. But why did Diogenes behave this way? What made him leave his native Sinope in Asia Minor and seek refuge in Athens? How did his contemporaries, especially his fellow philosophers whom he mercilessly mocked, perceive him? How does his colorful personality fit into the history of Greece during the crisis of the city-state democracy in the 4th century BC? You can read about all of this in the book by the renowned historian of antiquity, Igor Surovik.
