| Sumario: | The protreptic was a type of exhortative speech used in antiquity with different purposes: to promote a philosophical ideology, to urge to act in a certain way, to persuade about the importance of incorporating certain habits. For this reason, it was implemented, in different areas, by various disciplines, including philosophy.
Although the catalogs of his work show that Aristotle only wrote a protreptic, the analysis of his esoteric texts allows us to say that in his lessons he would have implemented resources characteristic of this type of discourse. The aim of this paper is to examine how Aristotle appropriates and uses the lógos protreptikós in his philosophical activity. |
