Summary/Abstract: Persuasion (persuasio) fits among the key rhetorical devices and Gregory of Nazianzus makes use of it both in his orations and his epistles. It can also be found in the verse epistle II, II, 7 addressed to Nemesius, an educated pagan, in order to make him change his mind and bring him to conversion. My conference presentation will determine whether and to what extent the basic requirements for persuasio, as specified by Aristotle and Cicero with respect to orations and by Gregory of Nazianzus himself with respect to epistles, are observed in the epistle Ad Nemesium.
