Synopsis
How does one construct a role for oneself in the fourth-century democratic city? This commentary on Isocrates' Antidosis , which includes a full translation as well as an extensive introduction, demonstrates that a rhetorician may do so by assuming roles that subvert many of the conventions invoked by the genre - a non-speaker in a rhetorical community, a rhetorician in a world where rhetorical performativity has derogatory connotations, a philosopher following the trial of Socrates. Moreover, Yun Lee Too demonstrates how the narrative of 'self' in the Antidosis is to be understood as a sophisticated amalgam of literary, rhetorical, philosophical, and legal discourses.

Isocrates' Antidosis is of interest not only to historians but also to scholars of rhetoric because of its exploration of the rhetorician's self-fashioning. This is the first full commentary on this extremely significant but so far neglected work, and includes a full translation as well as an extensive introduction. This item is printed on demand.
