Ancient philosophers developed a rich toolbox to better reach, teach, and affect their addressees or, indeed, practitioners, using fiction, letter-writing, mnemotechnic, or orality. This book analyses how Epicurus (3rd century BCE), the philosopher of pleasure par excellence, did just that: impacting his readers to make them happy.
