Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This publication is a translated collection of fragments from various Orations and speeches attributed to Lysias, a significant figure in ancient Greek history and rhetoric. The texts provide an intriguing glimpse into the legal and political landscape of Athens during the late 5th and… early 4th centuries BCE. The book is organized by subject, rather than chronologically. The included Orations were chosen to provide examples of Lysias' skill in addressing the complex and often contentious issues that preoccupied Athenian society, including civic duty, property disputes, charges of violence and impiety, as well as the role of persuasive speech within the democratic political system. The author's approach is characterized by clarity, concision, and an attention to detail that allows the reader to appreciate the nuances of ancient Athenian legal procedure as well as the broader social and political context of the time. Themes that emerge include the importance of justice, equality, and the rule of law in a democratic society. This volume offers a valuable resource for students and scholars of classical history, law, and rhetoric, as well as for anyone interested in understanding the development of Western legal and political thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
