Select Private Orations of Demosthenes, Vol. 2: Containing Pro Phormione, Contra Stephanum I. II.; Contra Nicostratum, Cononem, Calliclem; With Introduction and English Commentary (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book is a historical and literary study of the private orations of Demosthenes, the famous Athenian orator and politician of the 4th century B.C. The speeches were delivered in private lawsuits rather than political debates, and examine various issues of commerce and inheritance, along with topics like marriage and the treatment of slaves. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the speeches, their significance, and their persuasive techniques, as well as placing them within the context of Athenian legal and social history. The book presents a fine-grained examination of a particular set of important speeches, while also providing insight into the legal and social realities of ancient Athens.
