Telecles

Telecles (in Greek Τηλεκλῆς) was a Greek philosopher of the academic sect.

He was Phoenician or Focea and was a disciple of Arcesilao and disciple of Lacides, his successor in the direction of the Academy (224 - 215 BC) Nothing new seems to have contributed with his teachings to that philosophical direction , which had made the Platonic doctrine of ideas into a probabilistic dialectic. The circumstances mentioned above are recorded in the following passage by Diogenes Laertius (Book IV, 8th), who says that "Lácides was the last philosopher to know that he ceded his school to another, as he did, by handing it over to Telecles and Evandro." This one, who was his classmate, happened to him in the direction of the School. Bibliography
