  • For purposes of inclusion in our regular 20th meetings, the following is a list of prominent Epicureans with notations of their accomplishments. Each month - in addition to Epicurus and Metrodorus as directed in Epicurus will - we can remember two others so that each year we rotate through the complete list. The goal for each month would be:

    1. To memorialize Epicurus and Metrodorus every month as per the will.
    2. To memorialize two other prominent Epicureans from a list of 24 names that everyone ought to know.
    3. To memorialize one from a list of "lesser-known" Epicureans about whom we may not know much but which we know enough to make for an interesting mention.

    To prepare this we can use Nate's list of "Epicurean Philosophers" (linked below).
