      Pythagorean philosopher, said to be a daughter of Pythagoras, wrote a work "about Human
      Nature," of which a fragment is preserved by Stobaeus. (<hi rend="ital">Ecl.</hi> i. p. 847,
      ed. Heeren.) Some editors attribute this fragment to Aresas, one of the successors of
      Pythagoras, but Bentley prefers reading Aesara. She is also mentioned in the life of
      Pythagoras (apud <hi rend="ital">. Phot. Cod.</hi> 249, p. 438b. ed. Bekker), where Bentley
      reads <foreign xml:lang="grc">Αἰσάρα</foreign> instead of <foreign xml:lang="grc">Σάρα</foreign>. (<hi rend="ital">Dissertation upon Plalaris,</hi> p. 277.)</p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
