Description:
(Cyrenaic Philosopher)
Anniceris was a prominent philosopher who challenged conventional beliefs about pleasure as the absence of pain and the ultimate goal of human life. He emphasized that pleasure is specific to each action and should be derived from virtues like friendship and patriotism. He believed that wisdom is attained through habitual wise actions rather than reason alone. The Annicerean sect, inspired by his teachings, focused on the importance of virtues and the pursuit of pleasure through meaningful relationships and actions.
