TruePowerBooks

The tales of Diogenes, the Great Cynic Philosopher have delighted and enlightened all who have been fortunate enough to read of his deeds. Diogenes originated the then revolutionary concept of cosmopolitanism, insulted and won the admiration of Alexander the Great, and almost single handedly defined the Cynic Philosophy which eventually developed into the Stoic School. In his own life he journeyed from freeing his personal slave, to living in a clay barrel on the street, to being captured by pirates and becoming a slave himself. Considered the only true sage by the Stoics, none of Diogenes' many writings have survived, but details of his life and his teachings come in the form of anecdotes attributed to him in a number of scattered classical sources. This book is a complete collection of those early writings which thankfully have survived from antiquity to bring us these legends. The stories of Diogenes are surprising and funny, and at a deeper level they offer profound lessons through his piercing use of metaphor and symbolism. The instructions of Diogenes are just as relevant and sharp today as in his own time. True Power Books aims to provide a curated collection of history's most important writings in regards to the love of knowledge and personal growth presented clearly and without editorial additions, in the form of beautiful books worthy of display.
