Extractions: Chrysippus was a Stoic philosopher of Soli in Cilicia Campestris. He moved to Athens, and became a disciple of Cleanthes, the successor of Zeno. He was equally distinguished for his natural abilities and industry and rarely went a day without writing 500 lines. He wrote several hundred volumes, of which three hundred were on logical subjects, borrowing largely from others. With the Stoics in general, he maintained that the world was God, or a universal effusion of his spirit, and that the superior part of this spirit, which consisted in mind and reason, was the common nature of things, containing the whole and every part of it. Sometimes he speaks of God as the power of fate and the necessary chain of events. Sometimes he calls him fire. Other times he deifies the fluid parts of nature, such as water and air, or he deifies the earth, sun, moon, a d stars and the universe as a whole. To too he deifies those who have obtained immortality. He was fond of the syllogistic figure sorities in arguing, which is hence called by Persius "the heap of Chrysippus." His discourses contain more curiosities and distinctions than solid arguments.

Extractions: In the summer, water in dry weather, syringe in the evenings whenever practicable, and keep the borders free from weeds by surface hoeings; stake and tie the plants as required, and pinch out the tips of the shoots until they have become sufficiently bushy by frequent branching. Pinching should not be practised later than the end of June. Pot Plants for Decoration.A list of a few of the thousands of varieties suitable for this purpose would be out of place here; new varieties are being constantly introduced, for these the reader is referred to trade catalogues. The most important considerations for the beginner are (a) the choice of colours; (b) the types of flowers; (c) the height and habits of the varieties. Generally speaking, very tall varieties and those of weak growth and delicate constitutions should be avoided. The majority of the varieties listed for exhibition purposes are also suitable for decoration, especially the Japanese kinds. Propagation and early culture are substantially as for border plants. Towards the end of July the plants will need feeding at the roots with weak liquid manure, varied occasionally by a ve1y slight dusting of soluble chemical manure such as guano. The soil should be moderately moist when manure is given. In order that the flowers may be of good form, all lateral flower buds should be removed as, soon as they are large enough to handle, leaving only the bud terminating each shoot. Towards the end of Septemberearlier should the weather prove wet and coldremove the plants to wellventilated greenhouses where they are intended to flower. Feeding should be continu,ed until the flowers are nearly half open, when it may be giidually reduced. The large mop-headed blooms seen at exhibitions in November are grown ill the way described, but only one or two shoots are allowed to develop on a plant, each shoot eventually having only one bloom.

Extractions: Chrysippus was of Phoenician roots. He came to Athens to study philosophy at the Academy with Arcesilaus . After a while he left the Academy and moved to the Stoa Poikile Academy in Athens where he was a pupil at the School founded by Zeno of Citium By the time Chrysippus joined the Stoa Poikile Academy, Cleanthes of Assos had become the second head following the death of Zeno. Chrysippus studied under Cleanthes, but he had also been influenced by the teachings of Plato . In 232 BC Chrysippus became the third head of the Stoa Poikile following the death of Cleanthes. He was to continue to hold this position until his own death. There is evidence from the writings of Chrysippus that he was poor throughout his life. Certainly he stated that for a philosopher to become wealthy he might serve a king (or even, said Chrysippus, become a king himself). It is clear however that he did not adopt this route to a steady income. Otherwise, Chrysippus writes, the philosopher must rely on his friends and on teaching in order to live, and it would appear that this is the means by which he made his small income. Another piece of information, which again is not surprising, is that Chrysippus wrote Greek with very poor style. This seems to have been a characteristic of people from Soli, and this is preserved today in the expression 'solecism'. Despite his Greek prose being awkward, he was a prolific writer who is said to have written 705 rolls of papyri, none of which are remains today.

Extractions: Zeno founded the Stoa on original insights into Socratic exemplification, a fundamental rethinking of the Platonic virtues and a bold synthesis of earlier Greek metaphysics, all grounded on the affirmation of the unity of nature, visible and invisible, macrocosmic and microcosmic. Cleanthes drew Zeno's teachings together, elaborated them and gave them a harmonious and lyrical expression. The impact of Stoic philosophy may be measured by the energetic criticism aimed at it, especially by the Cynics from whom the Stoics openly borrowed, the Epicureans who saw the Stoics as rough-hewn and the Academy which found them metaphysically crude. Countered vigorously by Zeno and sympathetically by Cleanthes, the rivalry of schools took its toll, and many initially attracted to the strength of Stoic thought drifted away from the call for endurance. It fell to Chrysippus to establish the school on the bedrock of logic and refined concepts. systema, which can be a kind of techne or art, but the systematic synthesis of all knowledge is episteme or science. Philosophy alone constitutes a complete science in this sense. Since innate ideas are difficult to distinguish from amongst the variety of concepts and notions found in human minds, and since most conceptualization involves some link to sensations and perceptions, Zeno preferred a straightforward empirical approach to knowledge. Chrysippus formulated the criterion of truth as

Extractions: cause / effect Ursache Wirkung Distinction between the events involved in a causal relationship , where the occurrence of one (the cause ) is supposed to bring about or produce an occurrence of the other (the effect ). Although the correct analysis of causation is a matter of great dispute, Hume offered a significant criticism of our inclination to infer a necessary connection from mere regularity, and Mill proposed a set of methods for recognizing the presence of causal relationships. Contemporary philosophers often suppose that a causal relationship is best expressed in the counterfactual statement that if the cause had not occured, then the effect would not have occured either.
