Antisthenes (c. 445- c. 365 BC), was a prominent follower of
Socrates and bitter rival of Plato. In this revisionary account of
his philosophy in all its aspects, P. A. Meijer claims that Plato
and Aristotle have corrupted our perspective on this witty and
ingenious thinker. The first part of the book reexamines afresh
Antisthenes' ideas about definition and predication and concludes
from these that Antisthenes never held the (in)famous theory that
contradiction is impossible. The second part of the book argues
that Antisthenes' logical theories bear directly on his activities
as an exegete of Homer and hence as a theological thinker. Part
three, finally, offers innovative readings of Antisthenes' ethical
fragments.
