This is the second volume in the Oratory of Classical Greece series. Planned for publication over several years, the series will present all of the surviving speeches from the late fifth and fourth centuries B.C. in new translations prepared by classical scholars who are at the forefront of the discipline.

Ancient History Bulletin 9, 1995: Lysias on Theramenes
Professor Buck's interesting article, 'The Character of Theramenes' (AHB 9. 1, 1995, 14-24), perhaps gives too little weight to one of the most important contemporary witnesses about Theramenes, Lysias, in his thirteenth and, especially, his twelfth speech. Aristophanes (Ranae 533-41, 967-70) is our only evidence for opinions about Theramenes while he was still alive, but Lysias' speeches are intended to persuade hundreds of Athenians in law-suits only a few years after Theramenes' death, and all the intended hearers knew about Theramenes' life, his career and especially his death.

Lysias (450?-380 BCE)
Polemarchus took up philosophy; Lysias the study of rhetoric and oratory. Syracuse was the center of the new school of Sicilian rhetoric, necessary because of the greater number of law courts in Sicilian cities. Corax of Syracuse developed a systematic way of pleading one's case and began teaching this method. His first student was Tisias. [eng] |
