CALLISTHENES
Philosophus Olynthius, Alexandro M. familiaris ex condisciplinatu, accitusque ab ipso Rege ad prodenda memoriae gesta eius Asiatica. Huic nocuit immodica libertas, gravitasque Regi invisa. Numquam enim assentantium accommodatus ingenio erat. Cum enim Rex ex Persico bello Deorum more adorari vellet, acerrimus inter recusantes Calisthenes suit, palam dictitans, Alexandrum non adorandum esse. Quae res et illi, et multis Principibus Macedonum exitio fuit. Nam illum Alexander, propter adorationis Persicae interpellatum morem, coniurationis conscium esse criminatus, truncatis membris, abscissisque auribus, ac nasô labiisque deformatum, cum cane in cavea clausum circumferri iussit, diuque tortum tandem necavit. Plut. in Alex. Q. Curtius, l. 8. c. 6. Arrian. l. 4. Iustin. l. 12. c. 6. 7. Ei plurima artribuuntur scripta, ptiscis laudata, de quibus vide Vosl. Hist. Graec. l. 1. c. 9.
