Titre: Bias of Priene, Sage of Greece
Légende: Voir la traduction automatique
Bias of Priene (6th century BC) was One of the Seven Sages of Greece renowned for his goodness. The Seven sages was the title given by ancient Greek tradition to seven early 6th century BC philosophers, statesmen and lawgivers who were renowned in the following centuries for their wisdom. He is said to have been distinguished for his skill as an advocate, and for his use of it in defense of the right. Bias is said to have died at a very advanced age while pleading a cause for his client. After he had finished speaking, he rested his head on his grandson. When the advocate on the opposite side had spoken, the judges decided in favor of Bias's client, by which time Bias had died. The city gave him a magnificent funeral and inscribed on his tomb: "Here Bias of Priene lies, whose name brought to his home and all Ionia fame." Engraving from "The History of Philosophy" by Thomas Stanley published in three successive volumes between 1655 and 1661.
