Xenophon on emotions in the Symposium and the Apology
Main Article Content
Abstract
After presenting the reasons for undertaking an analysis of Xenophon’s Symposium and Apology with regard to emotions, I focus on the groups of pleasure/joy and love/friendship and discuss relevant contexts. They provide us with a complex picture which I then try to interpret by means of a concept of hierarchy. Next, I touch upon on the issue of the expression of emotions. Finally, I show why and how the Symposium and the Apology may be helpful in the study of emotions.
