1. Philosophy / B. History of Ideas / 5. Later European Thought

7822	A neo-Stoic movement began in the late sixteenth century [Lipsius, by Grayling]
	Full Idea: A neo-Stoic movement began at the end of the sixteenth century, under the inspiration of the Dutch scholar Justus Lipsius.
	From: report of Justus Lipsius (works [1584]) by A.C. Grayling - What is Good? Ch.5
	A reaction: I would take this to be just as much a movement against Christianity as the interest in the less theistic Epicurus. They wanted the virtues of Christianity without the theological trappings.
