Шаблон:Short descriptionAntipater of Tyre (Шаблон:Lang-grc-gre; fl. 1st century BC) was a Greek[1] Stoic philosopher and a friend of Cato the Younger and Cicero.[2]

Life

Antipater lived after, or was at least younger than, Panaetius. Cicero, in speaking of him, says, that he died "recently at Athens", which must mean shortly before 45 BC.[3] He is mentioned by Strabo as a "famous philosopher" from Tyre.[4] Antipater is said to have befriended Cato when Cato was a young man, and introduced him to Stoic philosophy:[5] Шаблон:Quote

Works

Little is known about his writings. From Cicero we can perhaps infer that Antipater, like Panaetius, wrote a work On Duties (Шаблон:Lang-la): Шаблон:Quote

Diogenes Laërtius[6] refers to another work by him called On the Cosmos (Шаблон:Lang-el): Шаблон:Quote

  2. Leonhard Schmitz claimed (William Smith, Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology (1867) Page 204 Шаблон:Webarchive) that the Antipater of Tyre who was the friend of Cato, was a different, earlier Antipater of Tyre to the one mentioned by Cicero. Schmitz did not explain why; he may have thought (incorrectly) that a teacher of Cato could not have lived down to 45 BC.
