Ques: Information:  - Epicureanism is a system of philosophy based upon the teachings of the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus, founded around 307 BC. Epicurus was an atomic materialist, following in the steps of Democritus. His materialism led him to a general attack on superstition and divine intervention. Following Aristippusabout whom very little is knownEpicurus believed that what he called "pleasure" was the greatest good, but that the way to attain such pleasure was to live modestly, to gain knowledge of the workings of the world, and to limit one's desires. This would lead one to attain a state of tranquility ("ataraxia") and freedom from fear as well as an absence of bodily pain ("aponia"). The combination of these two states constitutes happiness in its highest form. Although Epicureanism is a form of hedonism insofar as it declares pleasure to be its sole intrinsic goal, the concept that the absence of pain and fear constitutes the greatest pleasure, and its advocacy of a simple life, make it very different from "hedonism" as it is colloquially understood.  - Polyaenus of Lampsacus ( / pliins / ; Greek : oo  , Polyainos Lampsaknos ; c. 340 -- c. 285 BCE ) , also spelled Polyenus , was an ancient Greek mathematician and a friend of Epicurus .  - Polyaenus or Polyenus (; see ae (æ) vs. e "Polyainos", "much-praised") was a 2nd-century Macedonian author, known best for his "Stratagems in War" (in Greek, ), which has been preserved. The "Suda" calls him a rhetorician, and Polyaenus himself writes that he was accustomed to plead causes before the emperor. He dedicated "Stratagems in War" to Marcus Aurelius (161180) and Verus (161169), while they were engaged in the Parthian war (162165), about 163 CE, at which time he was too old to accompany them in their campaigns.  - Marcus Aurelius (26 April 121  17 March 180 AD) was Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD. He ruled with Lucius Verus as co-emperor from 161 until Verus' death in 169. Marcus Aurelius was the last of the so-called Five Good Emperors. He was a practitioner of Stoicism, and his untitled writing, commonly known as the "Meditations", is the most significant source of the modern understanding of ancient Stoic philosophy.  - Epicurus (or  "ally, comrade"; 341270 BC) was an ancient Greek philosopher as well as the founder of the school of philosophy called Epicureanism. Only a few fragments and letters of Epicurus's 300 written works remain. Much of what is known about Epicurean philosophy derives from later followers and commentators.    'polyaenus of lampsacus' is related to which object entity through the relation of 'movement'?  Choices: - epicureanism  - stoicism

Ques: Information:  - Ancient Rome was an Italic civilization that began on the Italian Peninsula as early as the 8th century BC. Located along the Mediterranean Sea and centered on the city of Rome, it expanded to become one of the largest empires in the ancient world with an estimated 50 to 90 million inhabitants (roughly 20% of the world's population) and covering 5.0 million square kilometers at its height in AD 117.  - In ancient Rome, a gens (or ), plural gentes, was a family consisting of all those individuals who shared the same nomen and claimed descent from a common ancestor. A branch of a gens was called a "stirps" (plural "stirpes"). The "gens" was an important social structure at Rome and throughout Italy during the period of the Roman Republic. Much of an individual's social standing depended on the gens to which he belonged. Certain gentes were considered patrician, others plebeian, while some had both patrician and plebeian branches. The importance of membership in a gens declined considerably in imperial times.  - The Roman Republic was the era of ancient Roman civilization beginning with the overthrow of the Roman Kingdom, traditionally dated to 509 BC, and ending in 27 BC with the establishment of the Roman Empire. It was during this period that Rome's control expanded from the city's immediate surroundings to hegemony over the entire Mediterranean world.  - Marcus Fulvius Nobilior , Roman general , a member of one of the most important families of the patrician Fulvius gens .
