The Stoics, Epicureans and Sceptics

Note 122 — Chapter XIII · THE RELATION OF THE STOIC PHILOSOPHY TO RELIGION.

Oswald J. (Oswald Joseph) Reichel translation

Cic.

Ibid. i. 7, 12; ii. 42, 88; Acad. ii. 33, 107; Diog. vii. 149; Epiphan. Adv. Hær. Cicero appears to have borrowed from Panætius, as Wachsmuth rightly observes, this denial of Astrology (Divin. ii. 42–46), and he allows, c. 42, 88; 47, 97, that Panætius was the only Stoic who rejected it. ↑
