The present paper inquires into Maximus of Tyre’s theodicy ( Or . 41). Contemporary scholarship tends to disclaim the philosophical significance of Maximus’ speeches due to their opulent rhetoric and popularising style. Oratio 41—Maximus’ speech on the problem of evil—might be suited to counteract such tendencies. The paper first analyses the different aspects of Maximus’ theodicy within its Stoic-Middle Platonic milieu, then demonstrates, how Maximus always takes into account the main purpose of his orations—encouraging his adolescent listeners to choose philosophy as a way of life
