Abstract
In this study I explore the connection between emotion and persuasion in Xenophon's Cyropaedia, by focusing on four emotions: philia (“love”/“friendship”), elpis (“hope”/“expectation”), phthonos (“envy”), and hedone (“pleasure”), underlining the political dimension of the emotions in Xenophon's thought, and inscribing Xenophon's ideas about emotion and persuasion into the political debates of his times.
