Xenophanes



“Xenophanes was the son of Dexius, or according to Apollodorus, of Orthomenes, and was of Colophon. He is mentioned by Timon, who says: “Xenophanes, the faintly-modest trouncer that hath trod Old Homer underfoot and lo! forged an inhuman God, Round, motionless, sans hurt or harm, more brainy than the brain . . .1

” Banished from his birthplace <he lived> at Zancle in Sicily, <took part in the settlement of Elea by a colony from that city, and taught there;> but he also taught at Catana. He was no man's pupil according to some writers, according to others a pupil of Boton of Athens,2 according to others again, of Archelaus. Sotion makes him contemporary with Anaximander.3 Of his works some are in the epic metre, and some are elegies and iambi attacking Hesiod and Homer and denouncing what they say about the Gods. He used moreover to give public recitations of his poems. He is said to have opposed the views of Thales and Pythagoras and even assailed Epimenides.4 He lived to a very great age, as indeed he says himself (fr. 7).5
