Question1: why was the encounter between Alexander and Diogenes one of the most dramatic scenes in history?

Answer:

Alexander is the perfect model of a superman. He is everything Diogenes is not; except for the fact both are philosopher. But Alexander is young, handsome, beautifully dressed, physically strong, brave as a warrior, the most powerful man in the world at the time, the perfect model of Plato’s “Philosopher King”. Therefore his encounter with Diogenes cannot but one of the most dramatic scenes in history.

Question2: why did Alexander think that he and Diogenes were free in the world?

Answer:

Alexander was free because he has the power to satisfy person’s desire; Diogenes was free because he did not have any of those desires. And it is for the same reason that Alexander admits that like himself, Diogenes was a citizen of the city of the world, and if he were not Alexander, he would be Diogenes.
