The identity which Herakleitos explains as consisting in difference is just that of the primary substance in all its manifestations. [55] He also similarly compared sleep to death; "Man kindles a light for himself in the night-time, when he has died but is alive. [176] Heraclitus's most famous depiction in art is in Raphael's School of Athens, which was painted in around 1510.

Now, the Stoics held the Ephesian in peculiar veneration, and sought to interpret him as far as possible in accordance with their own system. According to Diogenes Laërtius, Timon of Phlius called Heraclitus "the Riddler" (αἰνικτής; ainiktēs), saying Heraclitus wrote his book "rather unclearly" (asaphesteron); according to Timon, this was intended to allow only the "capable" to attempt it.

[82], In a metaphor and one of the earliest uses of a force in the history of philosophy, Heraclitus compares the union of opposites to a strung bow or lyre held in shape by an equilibrium of the string tension: "There is a harmony in the bending back (παλίντροπος palintropos) as in the case of the bow and the lyre".[83]. Nun ist der Plan scheinbar ein anderer! [152], Parmenides's poem argues change is impossible; he may have been referring to Heraclitus with such passages as "Undiscerning crowds, who hold that it is and is not the same, and all things travel in opposite directions!". 68) that it was death to souls to become water; and we are told accordingly that he died of dropsy.

He has been seen as a "material monist or a process philosopher; a scientific cosmologist, a metaphysician and a religious thinker; an empiricist, a rationalist, a mystic; a conventional thinker and a revolutionary; a developer of logic—one who denied the law of non-contradiction; the first genuine philosopher and an anti-intellectual obscurantist.[5].

[40] According to Laërtius, this culminated in misanthropy; "Finally, he became a hater of his kind (misanthrope) and wandered the mountains [...] making his diet of grass and herbs". It is the same conclusion as that of Pythagoras, though it is put in another way. According to Cleanthes, Zeus uses fire to "straighten out the common logos" that travels about (phoitan, "to frequent"), mixing with the greater and lesser lights (heavenly bodies); Heraclitus's logos was now confused with the "common nomos", which Zeus uses to "make the wrong (perissa, left or odd) right (artia, right or even)" and "order (kosmein) the disordered (akosma)".[161].

It is always passing away in smoke, and its place is always being taken by fresh matter from the fuel that feeds it. [50], A later tradition referred to Heraclitus as the "weeping philosopher", in contrast to Democritus, who is known as the "laughing philosopher";[51] this statement generally references their reaction to the folly of mankind.

[18] The extent of the king's powers is unknown; Ephesus had been part of the Persian Empire since 547 BC and was ruled by a satrap (governor) who remained a distant figure: Cyrus the Great allowed the Ionians considerable autonomy.

[34] He also stated; "The knowledge of the most famous persons, which they guard, is but opinion". [166], Heraclitus was considered an indispensable motif for philosophy through the modern period. "Nothing ever is, everything is becoming"; "All things are in motion like streams"; "All things are passing, and nothing abides"; "Herakleitos says somewhere that all things pass and naught abides; and, comparing things to the current of a river, he says you cannot step twice into the same stream" (cf. %PDF-1.5 %���� Chr.).

[6] Laërtius comments on the notability of the text, stating; "the book acquired such fame that it produced partisans of his philosophy who were called Heracliteans". The work's opening lines are known, proving it was a continuous work. In the Symposium, Plato sounds much like Heraclitus:[151][156], Even during the period for which any living being is said to live and retain his identity—as a man, for example, is called the same man from boyhood to old age—he does not in fact retain the same attributes, although he is called the same person: he is always becoming a new being and undergoing a process of loss and reparation, which affects his hair, his flesh, his bones, his blood and his whole body. While the translation as "fate" is generally accepted as in Charles Kahn's "a man's character is his divinity", in some cases it may also refer to the soul of the departed.

[118], According to Aristotle, Cratylus went a step beyond his master's doctrine and said one cannot step into the same river once. According to Heraclitus, "Mortals are immortals and immortals are mortals, the one living the others' death and dying the others' life". The substance of the things we see is in constant change. [38], Heraclitus hated the Athenians and his fellow Ephesians, wishing the latter wealth in punishment for their wicked ways.

Raphael depicted Michelangelo as Heraclitus; he and Diogenes of Sinope are the only men to sit alone in the painting. ], The main source for the life of Heraclitus is the doxographer Diogenes Laërtius; the author Charles Kahn questioned the validity of Laërtius's account as "a tissue of Hellenistic anecdotes, most of them obviously fabricated on the basis of statements in the preserved fragments". For example. And yet the substance of it is continually changing. [citation needed] Philo uses the term Logos throughout his treatises on Hebrew scripture in a manner clearly influenced by the Stoics. [69], According to Heraclitus, "This world, which is the same for all, no one of gods or men has made. Das Wechselspiel von Ebbe und Flut, die fortwährende Bewegung des Wassers macht die Nordsee zum Sinnbild für das Auf und Ab des Lebens, in dem „Nichts so beständig ist wie die Veränderung“ (Heraklit von Ephesus, 535-475 v. He attributed dialectics to Heraclitus rather than, as Aristotle did, to Zeno of Elea, saying; "There is no proposition of Heraclitus which I have not adopted in my Logic".

DK B3 and B94, from Derveni Papyrus, col IV, Lectures on the History of Philosophy (1892), trans. [162] The Catholic Church found it necessary to distinguish between the Christian logos and that of Heraclitus to distance itself from pagans and convert them to Christianity. [26] He is generally considered an opponent of democracy,[5] though he believed "All men have a claim to self-ascertainment and sound thinking"[27] and "Thinking is common to all".
