- Title
UN PERSA ENTRE LOS SOCRÁTICOS: LA FIGURA DE CIRO Y LA CIROPEDIA EN ANTÍSTENES Y PLATÓN.
- Authors
ILLARRAGA, RODRIGO
- Abstract
A fleeting look at the political reflections of the classical period might lead to think that Cyropaedia is, in its usage of "Cyrus" character, an exceptional product of Xenophon's mind. In this work, I intend to show how against this possible conception, the image of Cyrus has a prominent presence in the Socratic group, especially for Antisthenes and Plato. To achieve that, I will trace the place occupied by the references to the Persian prince in the works of these two Socratic philosophers, giving special attention to how they are linked, in their characterization of Cyrus, with Cyropaedia.
