Tho cxnie..

Cynics vas the name applied to a
school. OF philosophers founded by An
tisthenes, a pupil Of Socrates. The
main tenet Of the extreme cynics was
that civilization is a curse. and true
happiness can be obtained only by
gratifying the most primary physical
appetites which man has in common
with brutes. The general attitude Of
the cynics as distinguished from that
of the stoics. who regarded everything
In the external world with indiner-
ence. was one Of contempt. They were
not an important philosophical school
numerically. but attracted attention.
largely by their eccentricities and inso.
lence. On account Of their contempt
for refnemtnt their name came subs
quently to be applied to any one who
takes a mean view of human life.-
