Book Description
One of the ten Attic orators included in the Alexandrian Canon, Lysias was a prominent figure of Athens in the fifth century BC. A loyal supporter of democracy, he took the side of the democrats at Athens against the Thirty Tyrants, supplying shields and money. Following a political speech in accusation of the tyrant Eratosthenes, he became a busy professional speech writer for the law courts of Athens. He was highly regarded by Plato and Plutarch. Lysias’ extant 34 speeches are fluent, simple and graceful in style, yet notable for their vivid descriptions. They reveal Lysias as a passionate partisan, who was also a gentle and humorous man.
