Calliphon

Calliphon

Calliphon (or Callipho) ( _el. Καλλιφῶν) was a Greek philosopher, who probably belonged to the Peripatetic school and lived in the 2nd century BC. [Fortenbaugh, W., White S., "Lyco of Troas and Hieronymus of Rhodes", Page 119. Transaction Publishers. (2002).] He is mentioned several times and condemned by Cicero as making the chief good of man to consist in a union of virtue ( _la. honestas) and bodily pleasure ( _el. ἡδονή, _la. voluptas), or, as Cicero says, in the union of the human with the beast. [Cicero, "de Finibus", ii. 6, 11, iv. 18, v. 8, 25, "de Officiis", iii. 33, "Tusculanae Quaestiones", v. 30, 31; Clement of Alexandria, "Stromata", 2. § 127.]
