隨著犬儒哲學(xué)的流行，其內(nèi)涵開始發(fā)生了微妙的變化。一位名叫德勒斯的犬儒派，某富翁送給他一筆錢，他收下了，對富翁說：“你慷慨大度地施舍給我，而我痛痛快快地取之于你，既不卑躬曲膝，也不嘮叨不滿。〞這里暗含的邏輯是，金錢本是無所謂的東西，我假設(shè)拒絕你的饋贈，倒顯得我把金錢看得太重，太當(dāng)回事了。我假設(shè)收下金錢又表示感謝，那也是把金錢看重了，當(dāng)回事了。因此，正確的做法就是，只要你肯給，我就假設(shè)無其事地收下它。早期的犬儒派是依據(jù)一種道德原那么去蔑視世俗的觀念，后期的犬儒派依然在蔑視世俗的觀念但卻失去了依據(jù)的道德原那么。這就引出了一個始料不及的后果：既然無所謂高尚，也就無所謂下賤。既然沒有什么東西是了不得的，因而也就沒有什么東西是要不得的。不難想象，基于這種無可無不可的立場，一個人可以很方便地一方面對世俗觀念做出滿不在乎的姿態(tài)，另一方面又毫無顧忌地去獲取他想要獲取的任何世俗的東西。于是，對世俗的全盤否認(rèn)就變成了對世俗的照單全收，而且還往往是對世俗中最壞的局部的不知羞恥的照單全收。于是，憤世嫉俗就變成了玩世不恭。

犬儒一詞的演變證明，從憤世嫉俗到玩世不恭，其間只有一步之差。一般來說，憤世嫉俗總是理想主義的，而且是十分劇烈的理想主義。玩世不恭那么是徹底的非理想主義，徹底的無理想主義。偏偏是那些看上去最劇烈的理想主義反倒很容易轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)閺氐椎臒o理想主義，其間原因何在？因為，許多憤世嫉俗的理想主義者在看待世界時缺少程度意識或曰分寸感，對他人缺少設(shè)身處地的同情的理解，不成認(rèn)各種價值之間的緊張與沖突，這樣，他們很容易把世界看成一片漆黑，由此便使自己陷入悲觀失望，再進而疑心和否認(rèn)美好價值的存在，最終那么是放棄理想放棄追求。早期的犬儒是堅持內(nèi)在的美德和價值，鄙視外在的世俗的功利?？墒堑胶髞恚逡辉~正好變成了它的反面：只認(rèn)外在的世俗的功利，否認(rèn)內(nèi)在的德性與價值。王爾德說：“犬儒主義者對各種事物的價錢一清二楚，但是對它們的價值一無所知。〞

李銀河：關(guān)于犬儒主義他們行為上以怪異和反常的行為向現(xiàn)有的秩序、制度、觀念、習(xí)俗挑戰(zhàn)，精神上那么躲進個人的心靈深處尋求寧靜和快樂。

在現(xiàn)時中國，一個理想主義者很容易變成非理想主義者，對面前的苦難〔特別是別人的苦難〕轉(zhuǎn)過臉去，躲進個人的心靈深處去尋求寧靜和快樂。在中國，犬儒主義者比古希臘更多一層好處——平安。這就是我們所面臨的可悲現(xiàn)實。心靈深處的寧靜和快樂正是我們想得到的，只可惜，理想主義的喪失成為我們?yōu)楂@得這種寧靜和快樂所付的代價。BackgroundAlexanderMacedonianKing:sonofPhilipTheThinker:studentofAristotleTheConqueror:Greece,Asia,EgyptWhydoyouthinkhewantedtobringsomanyregionsunderhisrule?DetailedAnalysisStructure
