<注釋>A cynic may be pardoned for thinking that this is a dog`s life.The Greek wordkunikos, from which cynic comes, was originally an adjective meaning .doglike,. fromkuôn, .dog.. The word was most likely applied to the Cynic philosophers because of the nicknamekuôn given to Diogenes of Sinope, the prototypical Cynic. He is said to have performed such actions as barking in public, urinating on the leg of a table, and masturbating on the street.The first use of the word recorded in English, in a work published from 547 to 5'4, is in the plural for members of this philosophical sect.In 59' we find the first instance ofcynic meaning .faultfinder,. a sense that was to develop into our modern sense.The meaning .faultfinder. came naturally from the behavior of countless Cynics who in their pursuit of virtue pointed out the flaws in others.Such faultfinding could lead quite naturally to the belief associated with cynics of today that selfishness determines human behavior.
