Suasoria is an exercise in rhetoric: a form of declamation in which the student makes a speech which is the soliloquy of an historical figure debating how to proceed at a critical junction in his life. As an academic exercise, the speech is delivered as if in court against an adversary and was based on the Roman rhetorical doctrine and practice. The ancient Roman orator Quintilian said that suasoria may call upon a student to address an individual or groups such as the Senate, the citizens of Rome, Greeks or barbarians. The role-playing exercise developed the student's imagination as well as their logical and rhetorical skills.

- Le suasoriae erano nella retorica tardo-repubblicana e augustea delle declamazioni che riprendevano le vecchie "tesi" o quaestiones infinitae. L'aspirante oratore doveva calarsi in una situazione storica o mitica e persuadere (appunto suadeo in latino significa "cercare di convincere") un determinato personaggio a compiere o meno l'atto chiave della sua esistenza, sostenendo in due distinti discorsi tutte le possibili argomentazioni a favore o meno di una presa di posizione.

Ecco alcuni "temi" topici: Alessandro Magno deve decidere se affrontare o no il viaggio attraverso l'oceano; i trecento spartani alle Termopili meditano se cercare di resistere contro i persiani o fuggire; Cicerone riflette se bruciare i propri scritti in cambio della salvezza dalla vendetta di Antonio.
