A group of epicurean and stoic philosophers began to dispute with him .
还有伊壁鸠鲁和斯多亚几个哲学家跟他争论。
Could the epicurean will hostile to pessimism be merely the prudence of a suffering man ?
反对悲观主义的伊壁鸠鲁思想难道仅仅是受苦受难者的审慎？
Epicurean philosophy enjoyed almost six hundred years of popularity , remaining faithful to the teachings of its founder throughout , before being eclipsed by the roman interest in stoicism .
伊壁鸠鲁派哲学大约流行了600年，忠于其说者遍及各地，最后在罗马人感兴趣的斯多葛派之前黯然失色。
Lucretius , a roman epicurean , says you can think of simulacra as " images of things , a sort of outer skin perpetually peeled off the surfaces of objects and flying about this way and that through the air . "
