This paper argues that Synesios’  De regno  is a mirror for princes and a splendid example of Neoplatonic political philosophy. It is based on Plato’s  Politeia  and its model of philosopher-kingship. Synesios makes his audience compare the current political reality with the ideal of the philosopher-kings, who are the image of the transcendent god in the political realm. In doing so he recommends political virtue in general, especially  phronesis  and  sophrosyne . Particularly he argues for reforming the recruitment of military and civil officials with reference to Plato’s concept of friendship in the  Politeia .
