View full profile →

Diogenes of Sinope (c. 404–323 BCE) was a Greek philosopher and one of the founders of Cynic philosophy. He famously lived in a barrel, rejected social conventions, and used provocative behavior to challenge Athenian norms, emphasizing self-sufficiency and virtue through asceticism. His sharp wit and public performances made him a legendary figure in ancient philosophy.
