Book Description
Excerpt from Selections From the Attic Orators: Antiphon, Andocides, Lysias, Isocrates, Isaeus; Being a Companion Volume to 'the Attic Orators From Antiphon to Isaeus' The principles which have guided the selection have been chiefly two - 1. To choose passages from each author which, taken together, should interpret as completely as possible his part in the general evolution of Attic prose style: 2. To take care that these passages should also possess intrinsic interest as illustrations of Greek thought, politics, or manners.

Book Description
Excerpt from Selections From the Attic Orators: Antiphon, Andokides, Lysias, Isokrates, Isaeos For the first of these two objects it was essential that each author should be represented by several extracts rather than by a single whole work, in cases where the latter must have excluded too much of the former. Thus, if the speech of Lysias Against Eraiosl/zenes had been given entire, it would have been necessary to omit many speci mens of his work in a different kind, without which his compass of power and his place in the development would have been imperfectly understood. For my purpose, the unity of the piece necessarily yielded to the unity of the series. At the same time, wherever it was practicable, I have given a composition as a whole. Thus, among the works of Lysias, the speeches For [vanni/160s and A gainst Pan/than stand entire; the Olynzpiaeos and the Plea for Me Cansiilntion appear in such integrity as they now possess. So, again, does the essay of Isokrates Against l/zc Sop/lists. Vvith the exception of a few lines, - devoid of interest save for those who resent expurgation, - the best oration of Isaeos, the eighth, is given in full. The present work is intended to be strictly what it is called, a companion volume to the A i/ic Ora/07's, in which all the writings of each orator have been analysed and discussed. Care has been taken to indicate, in an introductory note. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Sir Richard Claverhouse (R. C.) Jebb (1841-1905) was a prominent classical scholar and politician. Jebb was University Orator at Cambridge before becoming Professor of Greek at Glasgow in 1875, and eventually returning to Cambridge as Regius Professor. His many publications include books on Greek oratory, Homer, and modern Greece as well as editions of ancient Greek drama. The two-volume Attic Orators from Antiphon to Isaeos (1876) was written with two primary objectives: to attend to a significant but often neglected element of Greek literature, Attic prose oratory, and to situate that oratory within its social and political contexts. Jebb analyses a number of rhetors from the period before Demosthenes, providing a thorough overview of the genre during this 'best period of Athens'. Volume 1 establishes the broader historical context before turning to close analysis of the lives, historical contexts, and works of the orators Antiphon, Andokides and Lysias.
