Abstract


Using the imagery of Gregory of Nazianzus as starting point, the author tries to show that the doxographical example in Gregory’s Second Theological Oration (Or. XXVIII 26, PG 36, 61 C-64A), in combination with several other similar specimina, furnished by late Antiquity, may help resolve the problem raised by Quidam existimant at Seneca, Natur. quaest. III 24, 4. Who is meant here by quidam? In the author’s opinion: primarily Posidonius. In addition, this paper stresses the general significance and usefulness of late doxographical texts for reconstructing some details of the lost physical Science of the classical period.
