Sophistic works of Antiphon
Appearance
Antiphon (Template:Lang-grc) was sophist of ancient Greece, who lived before the time of Aristotle, and whose opinions respecting the quadrature of the circle, and the genesis of things, are mentioned by this philosopher. Antiphon is probably Antiphon of Rhomboid. He was thus a native of Attica and a citizen of Athen and so was eligible to hold political office in Athens. He was born around 480 BCE, he had wide philosophical and scientific interests, but it is for his views on justice that he is best known.[1]
