Jason of Nysa
Jason (Greek: Ἰάσων, Iason; 1st-century BC) of Nysa, a Stoic philosopher, son of Menecrates, and, on his mother's side, grandson of Posidonius, of whom also he was the disciple and successor at the Stoic school at Rhodes.[1] He therefore flourished after the middle of the 1st century BC. The Suda lists four works of his:[1]
- Βίοι ἐνδόξων - Famous Lives
- Φιλοσόφων διαδοχαί - Successions of Philosophers
- Βίος Ἑλλάδος - Life of Greece, in 4 books
- Περὶ Ῥόδου - On Rhodes
However, the Suda expresses doubt about whether the third book is his, and also credits Jason of Argos as having written a Life of Greece in 4 books.[2]
