The chapter examines the papyrological documentation relating to the Acta of Diogenes and Hermias and links to passages in Roman historiography on the cynical opposition to Titus and Berenice under the reign of Vespasian. The texts connect this opposition to the earlier Stoic opposition under Nero. A Roman orator, Curtius Montanus, mentioned by Tacitus, may have been involved.
