• n. ストア派の哲学者; 禁欲主義者; 苦楽に無関心な人

ラテン語のstoicusから、ギリシャ語のstoikosから、ストイック学派、stoa, porch, corridorから、PIE*sta, standから、語源はstandと同じ。 古代ギリシャの哲学者ゼノンによって創設された、禁欲主義と質素を旨とする学派で、ゼノンがポーチで講義したことにちなんで名づけられた。

stoic

stoic: [16] The Greek philosopher Zeno (c. 334– c. 262 BC), who taught that only virtue is necessarily good, and that pleasure and pain are matters of indifference, is reputed to have lectured to his followers and students in a porch or portico in Athens. The Greek word for ‘porch’ was stoá (a descendant of the Indo-European base *stā-, *sto- ‘stand’, which also produced English stand), and so Zeno’s teachings came to be characterized by the term stōikós. This passed into English via Latin stōicus as stoic, carrying with it metaphorical associations of ‘impassivity’ as well as the literal application of Zeno and his followers.
