Short description: Ancient Greek stoic philosopher
Mnasagoras (Greek: Μνασαγόρας; fl. 2nd century BC) was an Ancient Greece stoic philosopher. He was probably from Alexandria Troas.[1]
Almost nothing is known about the life of Mnasagoras. He was either the disciple of Antipater of Tarsos or Diogenes of Babylon (or both).[1] The book VII of Diogenes Laërtius' work Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers has contained his biography, but the section containing it has been lost; only a reference to it in the table of contents remains.[2]
