Timon of Athens (person)
:''This is about the figure who inspired Shakespeare's ''Timon of Athens''. For the Greek philosopher see Timon of Phlius.''
Timon of Athens ((ギリシア語:Τίμων ὁ Ἀθηναῖος), ''gen''.: Τίμωνος) was a citizen of Athens whose reputation for misanthropy grew to legendary status. According to the historian Plutarch, Timon lived during the era of the Peloponnesian War (431 BC – 404 BC).
==Overview==
According to Lucian, Timon was the wealthy son of Echecratides who lavished his money on flattering friends. When his funds ran out, the friends deserted him and Timon was reduced to working in the fields. One day, he found a pot of gold and soon his fair-weather friends were back. This time, he drove them away with dirt clods.
Both Aristophanes and Plato Comicus mention Timon as an angry despiser of mankind who held Alcibiades in high regard because he correctly believed Alcibiades would someday harm Athens.
