Epicurus: Pursuit of Pleasure Epicurus, the founder of the philosophy that bears his name, advocated the pursuit of pleasure. But in his definition of pleasure he intended something that had little in common with what we today so often identify as pleasure. In keeping with the traditions of Greek philosophy in early Hellenistic times, he understood pleasure as attaining freedom from the pains and hurts of life through the practice of virtuous living. However unlike Socrates, he did not feel that virtue was a good in itself. worthy of devotion because of its superior qualities. He never looked deeply into the question of virtue's great, even divine, qualities. Rather he recommended focusing on living a virtuous life because it was able to produce pleasure--freedom from pain. virtue was not the highest good. It was merely the means to the highest good, which was pleasure

Features of stoicism a Unlike Epicureanism, which quickly froze into a fixed dogma, Stoicism developed, and became more complex, comprehensive, and plausible.It forms a system of interconnected doctrines confirming and supporting each other. Plato Aristotle, and Epicurus never managed as much and the stoics successors in the history of philosophy have produced nothing more comprehensive and systematic

Zeno: Logos and Quietism a Zeno' s interest was primarily ethical--in the manner of Socrates whom he supposedly honored greatly in his teaching. He, like Socrates, was quite confident of the powers of disciplined human reason to secure both deep insight into the cosmos and happiness in a person s own life That confidence was clearly based on his belief in the supreme existence of Divine Reason(the Logos), the ultimate reality behind mere appearances. He taught that human mind could--and most certainly should--attach itself to this Logos in pure devotion He taught further that the only path to human happiness for a pers came through complete personal self-mastery, in particular of the mind over the body, and especially as the mind was led to contemplate the higher realities of the logos. Zeno taught his students to seek the ability to quiet the body's cravings so as to become totally focused on this devotional union with the logos this quieting of the body--and of the mind--furthermore was expected to be possible (importantly so)in the face of particularly difficult human circumstances This "quietism"ultimately became the hallmark of the stoic
