Per una ricostruzione della bio-dossografia di Diogene di Babilonia (da Ercolano all’Egitto e oltre)

This paper offers a complete overview of all the problems raised by the bio-doxography of Diogenes of Babylon, the fifth scholar of the Stoic School. In particular, all the most important innovations that have emerged in recent decades from research on papyri (especially the Herculaneum rolls) and their consequences on the historical-philosophical level are illustrated. After a re-examination of the debated question of the chronology of Diogenes of Babylon, an updated review of the known titles of his works is finally given.
