The main aim of the study is to analyse selected fragments of the Megarics dealing with Socrates’Daimonion and the double deity (duplex genius). The first part of the study analyses the doxographical evidence about Terpsion of Megara. The second part of the study reconstructs Terpsion’s purported theory of Socrates’ Daimonion from the dialogue of Plutarch De genio Socratis. The third part of the study analyses the only extant fragment of Euclid of Megara about daimones and dieties. In the conclusion we formulate the hypothesis that the traces and features of the Megaric interpretation of the daimonion are to some extent also present in various Socratic philosophers as well as schools, ranging from Plato and the Cynics to Aristotle and the Stoics, and that it represents a philosophical reinterpretation of traditional forms of religiosity and superstition.

The main purpose of this paper is to identify selected elements of Socratic paideia in Megarian thought. We assume that the philosophy of education was an integral part of the entire Megarian school. Thus, in the first part, we will introduce Socratic education as such, drawing attention to selected elements whose echoes we will be able to find in Megarian fragments. In the second part, we will analyse these elements and the philosophy of education directly in the textual evidence. In the final part we will ask whether we can speak of a Megarian philosophy of education and whether such a paideia represented a continuity with the Socratic way of education as we find it in other Socratic authors.

The paper asks whether Euclid of Megara is a typical Socratic who examines the good life or a Megarian who combines Socratic ethics with the Eleatic doctrine. Firstly, the author analyses the testimonies by Diogenes Laertius, Aristocles, and Cicero that identify Euclid as the founder of the Megarian line (part 1 – 4). The analyses result in an ambiguous assessment of Euclid as an Eleatic Socratic, which seems to have originated in the Hellenistic doxographies. Then the author returns to the theme of Megarian school and shows that within the Megarian movement we should consider several lines, and only the latest line of Dialecticians could be called a school (part 5). Finally, the author reviews the extant testimonies for Euclid (part 6). It shows that, with few exceptions, Euclid is portrayed in ancient accounts as a Socratic with an interest in ethical problems. The only direct fragment cited by Stobaeus does not suggest any connection with Eleatic doctrine.
