How did Heraclitus of Ephesus gain the enigmatic nickname “The Weeping Philosopher?” Here we explore the obscure philosophy of Heraclitus.
What we know of Heraclitus is limited to 115 fragments passed down by approximately 27 different philosophers, historians, and theologians of antiquity. Keep in mind that he is only known through quotations, and that these quotations have different interpretations like many of the ancient texts from this epoch. The information in this video comes from multiple books and e-sources, these are listed below.
