Abstrakt

The aim of this paper is to compare five different translations of Diogenes Laertiusʼ chapter on Antisthenes and his philosophy. To be more specific, we try to draw a comparison among the translations of one original text, accomplished by Kalaš, Okál, Kolář, Hicks and Σκουτερόπουλος. To begin with, some necessary semantic concepts are explained: truth conditions, informativeness of sentences and differences in meaning. We focus on differences concerning the interpretations of Antisthenes ́ life, his philosophy, and his death.
