Before this Menander had been the companion-at arms (ovve'c/mbog 2) of Epicurus, his junior by one year, and when he was in his thirties Zeno 3 the Stoic was already in'athens developing the philo Sophy of the Porch. Suggestions of the influence of Theophrastus4 reappear now and again in Menander's character-drawing, but the impact of the creed of his companion Epicurus is obvious, and the phiiosophic impassiveness (erapaeia) of the Epicureans seems occasionally 5 tempered to an even finer edge of Stoic courage.
