| Video Discription | Chrysippus: The Man Who Laughed Himself to death| Co-Founder Of Stoicism| Chrysippus Quotes Chrysippus, (born c. 280 BC—died c. 206), Greek philosopher from Soli (Soloi) who was the principal systematizer of Stoic philosophy. He is considered to have been, with Zeno, cofounder of the academy at Athens Stoa (Greek: “Porch”). Credited with about 750 writings, he was among the first to organize propositional logic as an intellectual discipline. Chrysippus was a Greek philosopher who is considered the cofounder of Stoicism. Chrysippus was of Phoenician roots. He came to Athens to study philosophy at the Academy with Arcesilaus. After a while he left the Academy and moved to the Stoa Poikile Academy in Athens where he was a pupil at the School founded by Zeno of Citium. By the time Chrysippus joined the Stoa Poikile Academy, Cleanthes of Assos had become the second head following the death of Zeno. Chrysippus studied under Cleanthes, but he had also been influenced by the teachings of Plato. In 232 BC Chrysippus became the third head of the Stoa Poikile following the death of Cleanthes. He was to continue to hold this position until his own death. There is evidence from the writings of Chrysippus that he was poor throughout his life. Certainly he stated that for a philosopher to become wealthy he might serve a king (or even, said Chrysippus, become a king himself). It is clear however that he did not adopt this route to a steady income. Otherwise, Chrysippus writes, the philosopher must rely on his friends and on teaching in order to live, and it would appear that this is the means by which he made his small income. Another piece of information, which again is not surprising, is that Chrysippus wrote Greek with very poor style. This seems to have been a characteristic of people from Soli, and this is preserved today in the expression 'solecism'. Despite his Greek prose being awkward, he was a prolific writer who is said to have written 705 rolls of papyri, none of which are remains today. Together with Zeno of Citium, Chrysippus is considered the cofounder of Stoicism. Stoicism takes its name from the Stoa Poikile Academy which in turn means "Painted Colonnade", the place where the founder of the academy usually lectured. Chrysippus was one of the first to organise propositional logic as an intellectual discipline. Unanalysed propositions joined by connectives were studied. This allowed the Stoics to make major advances in mathematics and science. The logical term "disjunction" is certainly due to the Stoics and it is thought to have originated with Chrysippus. Diogenes Laertius in lists 118 works on logic by Chrysippus, and of these 118 there are seven books occupying 15 rolls of papyri concerning the Liar Paradox. One claim which Chrysippus made in the area of logic was to reject that the impossible does not follow from the possible. His arguments regarding this are presented in which also examines more generally his views on modal logic. In physics Chrysippus made distinctions between "whole" and "all" or "universe". He argued that the "whole" is the world while the "all" is the external void together with the world. He believed that logic and physics are necessary to differentiate between good and evil. For Chrysippus a knowledge of physics is necessary before ethics can be formulated. To him the value of physics and logic is mainly for this purpose. |
