Abstract
This chapter proposes to unravel the many ecological underpinnings of
Diogenes of Sinope’s Cynicism. Perhaps thinking cynically about climate
change requires going back to Ancient Cynicism in general, and Diogenes
of Sinope in particular; within the argument of this volume, this chapter
explores the resurgence of Diogenes and the particular tone of the works
of François Rabelais and Michel Montaigne. It makes a convincing case for
reading both of these authors less as polar opposites and more as thinkers
of the ecological shift in early modern France.
