Which one of the followings cannot be pointed out as a source based on which Epicurus developed his philosophy?
Hedonist philosophy of Aristippus |
Septic views of Pyrrhus |
Atomist doctrine of Democritus |
Roman Ortodoxy |
Platonic lecturers of Athens |
Epicurus developed his philosophy based on four different sources: Platonic lecturers of Athens, atomist doctrine of Democritus, septic views of Pyrrhus, and hedonist philosophy of Aristippus. Even though he was affected by all these philosophers, he was a strong critic of them. Unfortunately, he taught his ideas like dogmas and his school gained almost a semi-religious character. Thus, while the further contributions were restrained by this feature, the Epicurean philosophy became easy to be studied. Investigating only Epicurus’ personal philosophy is adequate for understanding the general conception of Epicurean school indeed.
