1 We know little about the nature of the texts of authors who may have been
forerunners. Diogenes Laertius writes: ‘They say that Zeno the Eleatic was the
first to write dialogues. But, according to Favorinus in his Memorabilia, Aristotle
in his first book of his dialogue On Poets asserts that it was Alexamenus of
Styra or Teos. In my opinion Plato, who brought this form of writing to
perfection, ought to be adjudged the prize for its invention as well as for its
embellishment.’ Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers, trans. R.D.
Hicks, The Loeb Classical Library, vol. III (Cambridge: Harvard University Press,
1972), 3.48.
Part One
Those who are split from the male pursue males. While they are boys, since
they are a slice off the male, they are fond of men and enjoy lying with men
and becoming entwined with them. These are the best of the boys and young
men, and at the same time are the most manly in nature (andreiotatoi ontes
physei). Anyone who says they are shameless is mistaken, for they do this not
from shamelessness but from courage, manliness, and masculinity (tharrous
kai andreias kai arrenôpias), welcoming what is like themselves. There is a
definite proof of this: only men of this sort are completely successful in
politics. When they become men, they are lovers of boys and by nature are
not interested in marriage and having children, though they are forced into it
by custom. They would be satisfied to live all the time with one another
without marrying. This is certainly the sort of man who becomes a lover of
boys, and as a boy is fond of such lovers, always welcoming a kinsman.
