Athanasius (/æθəˈneɪʃəs/ ath-ə-NAY-shəs; masculine, Ancient Greek (Latinized)) of Dendrinata (town on the Greek island Kefalonia), from the Greek name Αθανασιος (Athanasios), which meant "immortal" from Greek α, a negative prefix, combined with θανατος (thanatos) "death". Athanasius did most of his work in the 2nd century BC as a negotiotor and scholar in Ancient Athens, teaching them the art of discussion and further expanding the philosophical state Athens was slowly annexing into.
