PREFACE. ((^f^"^5''^ry 
 
 In the/i//zV Orators from Antiphoii to Isaeos I endeavoured 
 to trace historically the development of Attic prose, and 
 also to assist a special study of the orators before De- 
 mosthenes \ The favourable reception of that attempt 
 encouraged the design of a companion volume, which should 
 give in a compact form a series of the most characteristic and 
 interesting passages from these orators, with a commentary 
 adapted to the requirements of students at the Universities 
 or in the higher forms of Public Schools. It was the opi- 
 nion of competent judges that such an anthology of Attic 
 prose from Thucydides to Demosthenes might prove not 
 unwelcome to readers who desired to enlarge their survey 
 of the great classical literature, and to teachers who wished 
 to vary the routine of authors commonly read in the school- 
 course. Few Greek authors of the best age are more help- 
 ful than the orators if we desire to see the old Greeks as 
 
 ^ I desire to offer my thanks to the critics in this and other countries to 
 whom my book has been indebted for cordial welcome or for candid criticism ; 
 among others, to my German reviewer in Bursian's yahresberkht, Professor

 they lived and moved, to enter into the spirit of their daily 
 actions and thoughts: few, again, present more vivid or 
 instructive pictures of Greek society in its larger political 
 aspects. 
 
 The principles which have guided the selection have 
 been chiefly two: — i. 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 pos- 
 sess intrinsic interest as illustrations of Greek thought, 
 politics, or manners. 
 
 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 Agavist EraiostJieiics 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 L}-sias, the speeches For Mantithcos and 
 Against Panklcoii stand entire; the Olympiakos and the 
 Plea for the Constitution appear in such integrity as they 
 now possess. So, again, does the essay of Isokrates Against 
 the Sophists. 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 iiitended to be strictly what it is called, a 
 companion xolume to the Attic Orators, in which all the 
 writings of each orator have been anah'sed and discussed. 
 Care has been taken to indicate, in an introductory note, 
 
PREFACE. ix 
 
 the scope of each speech as a whole, as well as the bearing 
 of the selected passage: and, on reference to the Attic 
 Orators, an analysis of the whole will be found. The selec- 
 tion has cost some time and labour. The volume contains 
 thirty-seven extracts, representing thirty -three works. 
 Hardly one of these was admitted until it had been care- 
 fully compared with other passages of which the claims 
 seemed nearly equal, or in some particular respect, perhaps, 
 superior. Only those who have essayed a similar task can 
 easily understand the number and variety of considerations 
 which had to be balanced before a final list could be 
 arranged. It would perhaps be too much to expect that 
 the choice thus made should in every case obtain approval ; 
 I can only plead that, in deciding these often nice points, 
 I have acted as the Athenian juror's oath bound him 
 to act, — 7i/(Wyti77 ir] dpicnr) : that is, not necessarily with 
 good judgment, but with the best which I was able to 
 form. 
 
 It must suffice merely to touch here on a subject which 
 I have elsewhere sought to illustrate more fully ^ — the 
 reason why Attic oratory has a claim on students of Greek 
 literature different in degree from that which English 
 oratory (for example) has upon students of English litera- 
 ture. The distinguishing characteristic of the best Greek 
 literature is its constant and intimate relation with living 
 speech. In following the course of Attic oratory we are 
 at the same time tracing the main current of influence 
 which moulded Greek literary prose. And Greek prose, 
 whether spoken or written, has one kind of significance 
 for the student of all literature which does not belong in 
 the same measure to Greek poetry. This has been well 
 expressed by Professor Nettleship. ' The influence of

 Greek poetry is perhaps, in its larger effects, more trace- 
 able in the spirit than in the form of the most important 
 modern works of the same order, for the delicate musical 
 effects of metre pass away with the life of the language 
 in which they are born. But the broader and simpler 
 harmonics of prose-rhythm are not so easily lost, and 
 these, as first appreciated and elaborated by the Greeks, 
 must live in the ears of men so long as they continue to 
 speak or write prose with any sense of beauty. There is 
 a more obvious affinity between Demosthenes and Burke 
 than between ^schylus and Goethe'.' 
 
 Turning from the form of Greek oratory to the subject- 
 matter, we find Greek politics made more real and Greek 
 society more animated. Politics become practical and 
 personal; social life is seen in aspects which are no longer 
 merely domestic. It would be a pity to regard these 
 glimpses merely as peeps into a mine of possible exami- 
 nation-questions. Those who know this province of Greek 
 literature only through the medium of references in such 
 valuable works as Becker's Chariclcs might be pardoned 
 for supposing that the world of the Attic orators was 
 peopled by beings who existed solely in the interest of 
 unborn archaeologists. Dinners, kottabos, marriages, fune- 
 rals, and striking emergencies of the wardrobe succeed 
 each other with a disregard of the probable as placid and 
 as complete as if the instructive lives of the personages 
 had been prearranged by a Board of Studies. But when 
 we read the orators themselves we see that there is 
 another and a very different sense in which they illuminate 
 the life of ancient Greece. In one of the forensic orations 
 of Isaeos the speaker observes, with much warmth, that 
 his adversary has never possessed a horse worth more than

PREFACE. xi 
 
 twelve pounds. This certainly discloses the fact that a 
 horse of such price was not in the Athens of that day 
 considered a valuable horse. But that is scarcely the 
 point. It leads one to ask how a speaker in a law-court 
 could have expected this to be a telling reproach. How 
 must the relation of the private citizen to the city have 
 been conceived, if abstinence from the private display of 
 wealth could be regarded as implying a want of public 
 spirit.'* The facts of ancient life are dead unless the 
 imagination is exercised in seizing the social tone which 
 is suggested by their relation to each other. 
 
 The credibility of the Attic orators as sources for history 
 has sometimes been treated as if it were a question con- 
 cerning the solvency of a corporation. It would else 
 have been unnecessary to observe that each orator must 
 be considered separately. The history which Antiphon 
 and Isaeos illustrate is rather social than political. Anti- 
 phon was chiefly concerned with the court of the Areiopa- 
 gos, or with courts which reflected something of its spirit ; 
 and the Areiopagos, as Aristotle tells us, was exceptional, 
 among Greek tribunals in prohibiting the introduction of 
 topics not strictly relevant. Thus historical digressions were 
 precluded. Isaeos, again, was engrossed in argument on the 
 details of private relationships. But Andokides, Lysias, 
 and Isokrates are all, directly or indirectly, political his- 
 torians. Andokides sheds much vivid light on Athenian 
 affairs in the panic of 415 B.C., — in the revolutionary crisis 
 of 411, — and in that crisis of the Corinthian War which 
 belongs to 390 B.C. His references to earlier history are 
 usually inexact; a circumstance which need not surprise 
 us, when we remember the pains which Thucydides takes 
 to correct the erroneous beliefs, popularly current at Athens 
 in his own day, regarding one of the most famous and 
 most impressive events in Athenian history, — an event

 our chief contemporary authority for the period whi 
 mediately followed the close of the Peloponnesian " 
 the rcit,ni of the Thirty Tyrants, the restoration 
 Athenian Democracy, and its life during the earliej 
 of the Spartan domination. Isokrates gives us s 
 pictures of Greece at three successive moments ; — in 3 
 when the Spartan supremacy had now produced it; 
 effects; in 355, towards the end of the Social War 
 the Athenian visions of empire had now for the 
 time been shattered ; and in 346, when Philip of M 
 had just won his way within the circle of the Greek 
 and when the cause of Greek independence was e 
 on the last stage of decline. If Isokrates is not 
 accurate in reference to events of the preceding c 
 his illustrations of contemporary history, both p 
 and social, are of the highest value and the most 
 interest. 
 
 A prefatory note on the style of each orator ■ 
 found in the commentary. This note aims at n 
 the place of each in the series of writers by whon 
 prose was developed. The thread which runs throt 
 series has been traced elsewhere. A few words r 
 repeated here: — 'Two principal tendencies appear 
 beginning of Attic oratory. One of them sets out fr 
 forensic rhetoric of Sicily, in combination with the j 
 dialectic of the sophists, and is but slightly affec 
 Gorgias. It is represented by the writers of the 'a 
 style, of whom Antiphon and Thucydides are the 
 From Thucydides to Demosthenes this manner is it 
 ance, partly because it is itself unsuited to forensic pu 
 partly because its grave emphasis has come to seem i 
 The second tendency is purely Gorgian, and, after 
 
^eral obscure representatives, is taken up by Iso- 
 vvho gives to it a corrected, a complete, and a per- 
 form. From a compromise between this second 
 y and the idiom of daily life arises the 'plain' style 
 ias. The transition from Lysias to a strenuous 
 I oratory is marked by Isaeos, Then comes the 
 1 political oratory, giving new combinations to 
 ready developed, and, in its greatest representative, 
 them all." 
 
 eading these selections that thread should be firmly 
 rhe student should remember that he is not merely 
 samples from a number of writers who were all in 
 ense ' orators.' He is also following successive 
 I the process by which a language of most elastic 
 I was gradually adapted to a certain set of purposes. 
 L Demosthenes is said to have been a devoted 
 of Thucydides, everyone can feel that the prose 
 ;ydides is something very unlike the prose of De- 
 nes. If the intervening representatives of normal 
 e not read, a gap remains. Xenophon is too little 
 nscious artist to help us much; the literary genius 
 D is too individual. The works of the orators from 
 Dn to Isaeos form the bridge by which the gulf is

 h of the five has his distinctive interest. That of 
 on depends less on the intrinsic quality of his work

 r stage in the prose literature. The able historian

 md to whom my acknowledgments are due for his 
 ale fairness and courtesy — was disposed to think

 rated'. It is possible; \vc can seldom gauge with precision 
 the effect which a Greek orator produced on his average 
 Greek hearer; though Thucydidcs, at least, certainly re- 
 garded Antiphon as a very powerful speaker ; and 
 modern writers, including Grote and Curtius, have in- 
 ferred that eloquence was, as Thucydides implies, the 
 main source of Antiphon's ascendency. We can at anj^ 
 rate see that Antiphon represents a well-marked phase of 
 language and style. In another place I have endeavour- 
 ed to show how far Antiphon and Thucydides may 
 be compared or contrasted as disciples of a common 
 schooll 
 
 Andokides, who may be considered, relatively to the 
 artists of oratory, as a brilliant amateur, is for that very 
 reason a valuable element. We, with our prejudice against 
 the confession that oratory has a technical side — a prejudice, 
 which is probably less strong in America and France than 
 it is in England — arc too apt to think of Greek Rhetoric 
 as a machine which affected to produce uniform results 
 independently of natural aptitudes. Now this is just what 
 the best Greek Rhetoric strenuously repudiated l Again 
 and again Isokrates repeats that natural faculty is the 
 first condition of success, and that, without it, training 
 and practice can do comparatively little. Undoubtedl}- a 
 Greek audience not only recognized but usuall}' expected 
 careful premeditation by the speaker on every important 
 occasion. Several years ago an eminent person, being 
 President of tlie British Association, was called upon to 
 deliver the opening address; he rose, and offered a series 
 of observations on the weather, the crops, the embarrass-

 ment of public speaking, and the diffusion of knowledge 
 among the masses. The feelings of the British Association 
 at that moment probably resembled those with which an 
 Athenian audience would have received utterances which, 
 however pleasing in themselves, indicated that art had not 
 brought the requisite assistance to nature. Andokides is 
 peculiarly interesting as reminding us, on the other hand, 
 that, even with an Athenian audience, a natural gift could 
 succeed, though aided only by slender art. 
 
 Lysias, the canon of Attic grace, brings before us, — 
 more clearly, perhaps, than any of the rest, — one essen- 
 tial difference between ancient and modern oratory in 
 regard to their available instruments. The Greek orator 
 produces his effect mainly by the collocation and rhythm 
 of words used in their proper sense. When, however, he 
 desires to employ metaphor or other verbal ornament, the 
 freshness of the language makes it easy to do so. Nothing 
 is stale as yet. But our language is so full of worn-out 
 metaphors that it is difficult to find imagery which shall 
 be neither trite nor extravagant. It is no longer striking 
 to speak of a 'concourse,' Or to say that a nation 'cries 
 out'; yet these metaphors, and many others like them, will 
 be found in Aristotle's Rhetoric among examples of im- 
 pressive ornament. It is to be regretted, I think, that 
 Lysias has lost his old place in our schools; and I should 
 rejoice if the specimens given here should in any degree 
 contribute to his restoration. 
 
 Isokrates may with peculiar advantage be read in 
 selections. His frequent prolixity arises chiefly from two 
 causes — much preamble and much repetition. In most of 
 his longer works — the Panegyrikos, with its artistic unity, 
 is an exception — there is what may be called a nucleus, 
 consisting sometimes of one passage, sometimes of several, 
 generally in the central or the latter part of the work. 
 
xvi PREFACE. 
 
 The account of his 'philosophy,' whicli I have extracted 
 from the Antidosis, is a case in point. Isokrates has a 
 direct interest for modern literature as the founder of that 
 style which, especially through the prose of Cicero, has 
 exercised so large an influence on Europe. He has also a 
 peculiar interest in relation to the history of Greece. Be- 
 longing, as he does, to the latter days of the old Hellas, 
 and in feeling a genuine Hellene, he can yet conceive of 
 Hellenic culture as shared by men not of Hellenic blood; 
 and he is thus, as Professor Ernst Curtius has so well 
 brought out\ a literary forerunner of Hellenism. 
 
 Sir Henry Maine has taught so many readers to feel 
 some interest in the early history of testamentary law that 
 Isaeos will not be thought unworthy of study merely 
 because he is concerned with cases of inheritance. The 
 Attic law, which Isaeos illustrates, marks the transition 
 from the purely religious phase of adoption to a phase 
 in which it is still, indeed, connected with religion, but 
 also appears as the germ of a true testamentary power. 
 And there is scarcely any Greek writer who so much 
 helps us to understand the meaning which the old Greeks 
 attached to the family. The light which he gives is 
 not merely on scenic detail, but also on those relations of 
 the actors which touch the springs of social life. These 
 attributes might well entitle Isaeos to attention, even if 
 his place in the series of Attic prose-writers was not 
 rendered peculiarly interesting by his immediate connection 
 with Demosfhenes. 
 
 The notes aim at satisfying the practical needs of 
 students, while avoiding that excess of discursive annota- 
 tion which too often serves only to raise a mist between 
 the reader and the text.

 The Annals prefixed to the first volume of the Attic

ON THE TEXT. 
 
 I subjoin my collation of the text, as printed in this volume, 
 with that of Bekker (Berlin 1823 — -4), of Baiter and Sauppe 
 (Zurich 1850), and of the Teubner series, viz. Antiphon and 
 Andokides, ed. F. Blass (1871); Lysias, ed. C. Scheibe (2nd 
 ed. 1876); Isokrates, ed. G. E. Benseler (new ed., revised by F. 
 Blass, 1878 — 79); Isaeos, ed. C. Scheibe (1860). In Isaeos I 
 have compared also the text of G. F. Schomann (1831). Emenda- 
 tions by other critics are given where they appeared significant. 
 In a few places I venture to think that I have discovered the 
 remedy of a corruption : but I have not introduced any conjecture 
 of my own into the text. See below, p. 1§2: 4§2: 11 §21: 
 37 §4: 38 §3: 136 § 18. 
 
 ANTIPHON. 
 
 A - the codex Crippsianus, or Burneianus 95, now in the 
 British Museum, said to be of the 13th century : N= Oxoniensis, 
 saec. 13 or 14. I'hese, the two best, are closely connected. 
 Sauppe, who with Spengel and others gives the palm to A, thinks 
 that iVwas copied from A before the latter had been corrected, and 
 that the points in which N is superior are due to the conjectures of 
 its learned scribe. The Teubner editor argues against this view, 
 and sums up the relative merits of the two mss. by saying that, 
 if we had N and the others except ^, we should lack the true 
 reading in some twelve places ; if A and the others except iV, in 
 some ninety. But neither A nor N wholly supersedes other mss. 
 j5 = Laurentianus, saec. 15: Z = Marcianus, saec. 14: Z=Vra- 
 tislaviensis, saec. 14: J/ = Burneianus, saec. 15. 
 
 Turr. (Turicenses) = Baiter and Sauppe's edition : Bl. = the 
 Teubner text edited by F. Blass : Bk. = Immanuel Bekker's Berlin

 choice between two versions: (i) 'force peaceable men to be 
 audacious (ro/Vai'), aiid (re) in other respects to speak and act,'

 T€ is most awkward, t€ having occurred twice before in the sen- 
 tence. (2) ' make peaceable men dare Iwt/i (re) in other matters 
 to speak, etc., a/id {Kal) to act,' — Ae'yeiv and Spav both depending 
 on ToXixav. This is intolerable. I feel sure, then, that Turr. are 
 right in supplying, with Sauppe, koX before Trapa <fivatv : ' force

 be remembered that an immature rhetorical prose is sometimes 
 forced to employ these awkward explanatory clauses. That is 
 the price it pays for using ornament over which it has not com- 
 plete mastery. A clause may be sound in Antiphon which we 
 could safely pronounce to be a gloss in Demosthenes. || § 5

 ANDOKIDES. 
 
 The sources for the text of Andokides are chiefly the same 
 as for that of Antiphon. Here, however, the codex Crippsia- 
 nus A has no longer any rival in its claim to be the most faithful 
 representative of the common archetype, since the Oxoniensis 
 N does not contain Andokides. A was collated by I. Bekker, 
 and by Dobson, who also collated afresh in Andokides the whole 
 Burneianus M, used by Bekker only in a few passages. Not 
 much, however, has been gained from M, or from the codex 
 Ambrosianus F, which Bekker consulted in some places; still 
 less from Marcianus Z or Vratislaviensis Z. The mss. and 
 editions are indicated by the same letters as in the case of Anti- 
 phon.

 Z YSIAS. 
 
 The codex Palatinus X (Heidelberg) is the source from which 
 all* other manuscripts of Lysias yet collated have been derived; 
 it is also the basis of the Aldine. This was shown at length by 
 Hermann Sauppe in an epistola critica to Godfrey Hermann (1841), 
 and is now generally admitted. Carl Scheibe's first edition of 
 Lysias, in the Teubner series, appeared in 1852. Subsequently X 
 was carefully collated for him by C. L. Kayser, and this new 
 collation is the critical basis of Scheibe's second edition (1876), 
 in which the distinctive feature is the recognition of the codex 
 Palatinus as an authority of paramount value. When Baiter and 
 Hermann Sauppe were engaged upon their Oratores Attici, 
 the authorities of Heidelberg sent Palatinus X to Zurich for 
 their inspection, but before it arrived the first twenty orations 
 of Lysias had already been printed. An examination of it, 
 however, led Sauppe to the conclusions which he embodied in 
 the letter already mentioned. Second in importance is Lauren- 
 tianus C (15th century). This was L Bekker's principal guide. 
 So confident was he of its superior merit, that he looked at X only 
 occasionally, and without much attention. It has now been shown 
 
 ^ Excluding four which have only or. 11., the spurious 'ETTira^toy, — viz. 
 Marciani F, G, and Parisini U, V. 
 
xxxu 
 
 SIIL ECTIGXS. [L vsi AS 
 
 that the pouits in which C varies from X are nowhere due to a 
 better archetype, but simply to the conjectures of a scribe whose 
 learning was at least equalled by his temerity. In orations x — xxiv 
 inclusive Bekker used only C and X; in orations i — ix he drew 
 from time to time on eleven inferior mss. (mostly containing only 
 these nine speeches), viz. Marciani F, G, I, K\ Laurentiani D, E : 
 Vatican! M, N: Parisini U, V\ Urbinas O. As a rule, X and C 
 are the only mss. which have much weight in regard to the real 
 difficulties of the text.

 either 'to seek acquittal' or 'to acquit.' Bk., with Reiske, inserts

 ISOKRA TES. 
 
 The smooth style and lucid syntax of Isokrates favoured a 
 pure tradition of his text. But his very popularity with the gram- 
 marians and rhetoricians brought in a mass of interlinear or mar- 
 ginal glosses. The citations by Priscian and Stobaeus, who 
 usually agree with our inferior mss., show that this had happened 
 before the sixth century. Coming after Jerome Wolf and Koraes, 
 Immanuel Bekker restored the text to comparative soundness. 
 He used five mss., viz. (i) codex Urbinas iii,r: (2) Vaticanus 
 936) A: (3) Lalurentianus 87. 14, © (13th century). These three 
 belong to the same family, and have oration xv. entire. (4) Vati- 
 canus 65, A: (5) Marcianus 415, g : these two, again, are from 
 the same archetype, with or. xv. incomplete, r, the best of all 
 the mss., was Bekker's chief guide. 
 
 Baiter and Sauppe follow r, in their own words, ' even more 
 constantly than Bekker did.' But at the same time they recog- 
 nize that the true reading is often preserved only by a ms. which 
 was not among his five, — codex Ambrosianus O. 144, E, collated 
 in on XV. by A. Mustoxydes, in the rest partly by Melchior Ulrich, 
 ]'artly by Baiten The readings of E were given in full by G. E. 
 
ISOKRATES] ON THE TEXT. xxxix 
 
 Benseler in his 2nd edit. (1S54 — 55). Benseler thus sums up the 
 difference between the Zurich edition and his own. ' Baiter and 
 Sauppe's first rule was — 'follow the Urbino ms. (r)': my rule is — 
 ' follow the usage of Isokrates, even when something else is sup- 
 ported by r.' ' By ' the usage of Isokrates ' Benseler meant that 
 author's theory of composition so far as it can be inferred from 
 his own recorded precepts or from the statements of ancient 
 writers. Thus, as Isokrates is said to have ruled (j^wpija'Ta fx-rj 
 avfjurLTTTuv, Benseler says — ' when, therefore, in the writings of 
 Isokrates a hiatus remains [/. e. when a word ending with a vowel 
 immediately precedes a word beginning with one] the passage is 
 corrupt, or not Isokratic' Such logic is dangerously rigid : when, 
 on the other hand, a general conception of the writer's st3de is 
 made to overbear the mss., the process becomes dangerously lax. 
 A new edition of Benseler has lately appeared (1878 — 79) under 
 the revision of F. Blass, who regards E as not much inferior to r. 
 He has amended Benseler's readings in about 300 places, but has 
 usually followed him in details of form (e.g. av or idv, -qZwa^jL-qv or 
 iSvidfjLTjv), even where he did not agree with him. 
 
 The questions on which the more recent editors of the text 
 differ are now principally of this last kind — e.g. SeKaSapx^a or 
 S€/<ap;^6a, KvXti/SelcrOaL or KaAivSeicr^at, fxeyaXocfipoveLV or yueya 
 (ftpoveiv — or else concern the order of words; not many graver 
 difficulties remain. 
 
 Bens. = Benseler, Bl. = changes made in Benseler's text by F. 
 Blass, the reviser of the new edition (Teubner, 1878 — 79), As 
 before, Bk. = Bekker's Berlin edit, Turr. = Baiter and Sauppe.

 /SA£OS. 
 
 The British Museum ms., codex Crippsianus A, already cited 
 for Antiphon and Andokides, is the best for Isaeos, as it is also 
 for Lykurgos and Deinarchos. Besides A, Bekker had five other 
 mss. Three of these five have already been mentioned in relation 
 to Antiphon and Andokides — Laurentianus jB (the second-best for 
 Isaeos), Marcianus Z, Vratislaviensis Z The other two were very 
 inferior, — Ambrosianus A. 99, J^, and Ambrosianus D. 42, Q. 
 Bekker dismissed P after or. i ; he used Z, which closely resembles 
 Z, only in i. and in. : Q contains only i. and 11. Thus for or. iv. 
 and the eight following orations he consulted only three mss. — A, 
 j5, Z. G. F. Schomann had no further apparatus for his edition 
 (1831), except a Paris ms. i? which had been collated for him in 
 part of or. i. He had, however, examined the Aldine much more 
 carefully than Bekker, and not without some gain. Schomann 
 followed Bekker's text as a general rule, but altered his readings 
 in some sixty places, for reasons which he gives either briefly in 
 his critical notes or more fully in his excellent commentary, where 
 his unsurpassed knowledge of Attic law is so fruitfully brought to 
 
xliv SELECTIONS. [Isaeos 
 
 the illustration of his author. Baiter and Sauppe profited by a 
 new collation oi A, and of Burneianus 96, M, which Dobson had 
 given in vol. 4 of his edition (1828). C Scheibe, in the Teubner 
 Isaeos (i860), made it his special aim to complete the work of 
 predecessors by restoring the distinctively Attic forms of words. 
 The mss. of Isaeos have some forms which can be at once re- 
 jected, such as oi>6'eis, icfiopea-av, etc., but they have also some 
 others on which critics are divided. Scheibe performed a delicate 
 task with much tact and judgment. Thus he corrected the mss. 
 
 by writing such forms as r}yyva for iveyva, o-vyKaray-qpaa-av for 
 (TvyKaTayr]pa(raaav, yiyvidOai for yLveaOat, Se'St/xev for 8eSia/xev, etc. 
 
 On the other hand he followed the consent of the Isaean mss. in 
 retaining such forms as At^aioyeVryv (instead of -17), cj>avrj(T()fxat 
 (not (jyai'ovixaL) ; and he also deferred to the mss. in cases where 
 the question might be considered open, as when he refrained from 
 altering EtAr/^utas into ELVet^vta?, <^parepes into ^paVopes. 
 
 Schom. = Schomann, Schb. = Scheibe. As before, Bk. = Bekker's 
 Berlin text, Turn = Baiter and Sauppe.

 ANTI PHON. 
 
 Antiphon : 480—411 B.C. Approximate period of extant 
 work, 421 — 411 B.C. Life in Attic Orators, i. i — 17. 
 
 Style. Antiphon, the earliest forensic speech-writer (Xoyo- 
 ypa^os), represents that early style of Attic prose composition 
 which Dionysius {(ie comp. verb. 22 — 24) calls the 'austere' or 
 * rugged ' (au'cTTrjpa dpixovta), as distinguished from the ' smooth ' 
 (yXacfivpd) of Isokrates, and the ' middle ' {ii-io-q) of Demosthenes. 
 Its leading characteristics are (i) dignity: 'the movement of the 
 whole is to be slow and majestic, impressing by its weight and 
 grandeur, not charming by its life and flow': (2) reliance on 
 contrasts of single words : e.g. yvtopio-Tat' — StKao-Tat — ho^aarai — 
 Kpirai, Antiph. Be Caed. Her. § 94 : (3) bold, but not florid, 
 
 imagery : e.g. k-m. Trj e/xavrov (XTraiSta t,wv trt KaTopv^^drjaofxai, Tetr. 
 11. B § 10: (4) sparing use of the 'figures of thought', crxvi^o-Ta 
 Stavoias, — as irony, rhetorical question, etc. : see Attie Orators, 
 ^- 29- (5) predominance of direct appeals to feeling (pathos) over 
 subtle expression of character (ethos): (6) in the structure of 
 sentences, the transition from a ' continuous ' style, Xe^t? dpop.ivq, 
 in which clauses are simply strung together, to a periodic style, 
 
 Ae'^tS KaT(.(TTpap.^ivr]. 
 
 Thucydides belongs to the same stage of Attic prose as 
 Antiphon, differing from him principally in (i) a more pregnant 
 brevity: (2) a tendency to peculiar arrangements of words, caused 
 by desire of emphasis on the key-note of the thought : e.g. Thuc. 
 V. 91, eVi crwTrfpLa vvv toOs Xdyovs epovp-ev Tr;s v/i,€Tepas •jtoXcw?, 
 instead of iirl awr. T17S vfx€T. TToX. : (3) a tendency to bring a greater 
 number of clauses within the compass of a single sentence, in

 order that the whole of a complex thought may be seen at one 
 view. — See Attic Orators, i. i8 — 44. On Antiphon's Works in 
 general, ib. 45 — 70. 
 
 I. TETPAAOriA B. /3. The Tetralogies have this special 
 interest, that they represent rhetoric in its transition from the 
 technical to the practical stage, from the schools to the law- 
 courts and the ekklesia. Antiphon stood between the sophists 
 who preceded and the orators who followed him as the first 
 Athenian who was at once a theorist of rhetoric and a master of 
 practical eloquence. The Tetralogies hold a corresponding place 
 between merely, ornamental exercises and real orations. Each of 
 them forms a set of four speeches, supposed to be spoken in 
 a trial for homicide. The accuser states his charge, and the 
 defendant replies ; the accuser then speaks again, and the defend- 
 ant follows with a second reply. The imaginary case is in each 
 instance sketched as lightly as possible; details are dispensed 
 with ; only the essential frame-work for discussion is supplied. 
 Hence, in these skeleton-speeches, the structure and anatomy of 
 the argument stand forth in naked clearness, stripped of every- 
 thing accidental, and showing in bold relief the organic lines of 
 a rhetorical pleader's thought. — Attic Orators, i. 45 f. The 
 Tetralogies are distinguished by their practical character from 
 the ' displays ' of the sophists as well as from the ' declamations ' 
 of the Augustan age. 
 
 The subject of the Second Tetralogy is the death of a 
 boy accidentally struck by a javelin while watching a youth 
 practising at the gymnasium. The boy's father accuses the youth 
 — whose father defends him — of accidental homicide ; and the 
 case comes before the court of the Palladion. In order to un- 
 derstand the issues raised, it is necessary to keep in mind the 
 Greek view*of accidental homicide. This view was mainly a 
 religious one. The death was a pollution. Some person, or 
 thing, must be answerable for that pollution, and must be 
 banished from the State, which would else remain defiled. In 
 a case like the supposed one, three hypotheses were possible : — 
 that the cause of the impurity had been the thrower, the person 
 struck, or the missile. There was a special court — that held 
 at the Prutaneion — for the trial of inanimate things which had 
 caused death. Here, however, the question is only of living

 agents. The judges have nothing whatever to do with the ques- 
 tion as to how far either was morally to blame. The question 
 is simply which of them is to be considered as, in fact, the author 
 or cause of the death. 
 
 The accuser's first speech consists only of a few sentences, in 
 which he says that the facts admit of no doubt. A homicide has 
 been committed, though an involuntary one. The penalty de- 
 manded is the banishment of the accused, in order that Athens 
 may not be polluted by his presence {jirj Trepiopav airacrav tyjv tto'Aii/ 
 vTro TovTov [jiLatvofi€VT]v § 2). It is expressed by the phrase ctpyeiv 
 <Lv 6 vo/xos etpyci, zA and 7. § ii. The condemned person re- 
 mained in exile until the relatives of the deceased gave their con- 
 sent to his return (ews av alhicriqraL tis twv Iv yeVei tou TreTrov^oTos : 
 cp. Dem. or. xxxvii. Adv. Pantaen. § 59, or. xliii. Adv. Macart.

 (slight esteem), — viz. Karac^poVr/o-ts (contempt), cTrrypeao-p-o's (active 
 spite), r/3pts, outrage (Ji/ief. 11. 2), — the point of lir-qpcau^o^ being

 III. nE^I TOY HPfiAOY $ONOY] Herodes, an Athenian 
 citizen, had settled at Mytilene in 424 B.C., after the revolt and 
 reduction of that town. He was one of the kleruchs among 
 whom its territory was apportioned, but not otherwise wealthy. 
 Having occasion to make a voyage to Aenos on the coast of 
 Thrace, to receive the ransom of some Thracian captives who 
 were in his hands, he sailed from Mytilene with the accused, — 
 a young man whose father, a citizen of Mytilene, lived chiefly 
 at Aenos. Herodes and his companion were driven by a storm 
 
pp.4. 5] NOTES. 157 
 
 to put in at Methymna on the north-west coast of Lesbos ; and 
 there, as the weather was wet, exchanged their open vessel for 
 another which was decked. After they had been drinking on 
 board together, Herodes went ashore at night, and was never 
 seen again. 
 
 The accused, after making every inquiry for him, went 
 on to Aenos in the open vessel ; while the decked vessel, into 
 which they had moved at Methymna, returned to Mytilene. 
 On reaching the latter place again, the defendant was charged 
 by the relatives of Herodes with having murdered him at the 
 instigation of Lykinos, an Athenian living at Mytilene, who had 
 been on bad terms with the deceased. They rested their charge 
 principally on three grounds. First, that the sole companion 
 of the missing man must naturally be considered accountable for 
 his disappearance. Secondly, that a slave had confessed under 
 torture to having assisted the defendant in the murder. Thirdly, 
 that on board the vessel which returned from Methymna had 
 been found a letter in which the defendant announced to Lykinos 
 the accomplishment of the murder. 
 
 It was necessary that the trial should take place at Athens, 
 whither all subject-allies were compelled to bring their criminal 
 causes. The ordinary course would have been to have laid an 
 indictment for murder (yjoa^r) ^6vov) before the Areiopagos. 
 Instead, however, of doing this the relatives of Herodes laid an 
 information against the accused as a 'malefactor' {Kanovpyos). 
 He was accordingly to be tried by an ordinary dikastery under 
 the presidency of the Eleven. ' Malefactor ', at Athens, ordinarily 
 meant a thief, a housebreaker, a kidnapper, or criminal of the 
 like class ; but the term was, of course, applicable to murder, 
 especially if accompanied by robbery. Date, about 417 B.C. See

 training as member of a chorus to be produced at the Thargelia, 
 and who was poisoned by a draught given to him to improve 
 his voice. The accused is the choregus, an Athenian citizen, 
 who discharged that office for his own and another tribe, and 
 at whose house the chorus received their lessons. The accuser, 
 Philokrates, brother of the deceased Diodotos, laid an information 
 for poisoning before the Archon Basileus ; and, after some delay, 
 the case came before the Areiopagos. It was not contended 
 that the accused had intended to murder the boy, but only that 
 he had ordered to be administered to him the draught which 
 caused his death. According to Athenian law this was, how- 
 ever, a capital offence. The present speech is the second made 
 by the defendant, and the last, therefore, of the trial. Its date 
 may probably be placed about 412 b.c, : see Aftic Orators, i. 62. — 
 A short extract is given here as illustrating the greater ease and 
 freedom of Antiphon's later style, which is already beginning to 
 emancipate itself from the stiffness of the auarrypa app-ovia.

 Approximate period of extant work, 410 — 390 B.C. Life in. Attic 
 Orators, i. 71 — 87. 
 
 Style. Andokides is less a rhetorical artist than a vigorous 
 speaker of quick native wit. The ancient criticism of oratory 
 tended to regard it too much from the reader's point of view, 
 and too little from the hearer's. This was unfavourable to 
 Andokides. He is declared by Hermogenes (170 a.d. tn.pX 
 IS. B. xi.) to be wanting in the distinctive excellences of 
 practical oratory, deliberative and forensic. His diction is 
 plain {dcf)eX->]s}, though not with the studied plainness of Lysias. 
 He is sparing in the use of the rhetorical figures 0/ language 
 (cryrip.a.Ta Aetews), such as antithesis, parallelism between the 
 forms of the two sentences (Trapt'o-ojo-t?), or assonance (Trapo/xotoio-ts) : 
 though he uses largely the figures of thought {a-yfuiara. SiavoUs:), 
 such as rhetorical question. In the arrangement of subject- 
 matter he is simple and inartificial (aTrAous — aKaracrKcvos). His 
 strength lies in narrative, diversified by anecdote and enlivened 
 by graphic description — sometimes by touches of true dramatic 
 power. In addition to these literary merits, his speeches are 
 of great historical value for the years 415 — 390 B.C. — See Attic 
 Orators, i. 88 — 108. On the Works of Andokides in general,

 20 I- nEPI TH2 EAYTOY KA0OAOY] Spoken before the 
 Athenian Ekklesia not later than the summer of 410 B.C. [See 
 Attic Orators, i. 109. Andok. lays stress on the service which 
 he has rendered to Athens by securing a supply of corn from 
 Cyprus: but the battle of Kyzikos in 410 B.C. was followed by the 
 re-opening of the corn-trade between the Euxine and Athens : 
 Xen. H. I. I. 35. The benefit for which Andok. claims credit 
 would have been of little importance had it been conferred 
 later than the middle of the year 410.] The object of the 
 speech is to procure the removal of certain disabilities under 
 which he was alleged to lie. His disclosures in 415 B.C. were 
 made under a guarantee of immunity from penalties. But the 
 decree of Isotimides, passed soon afterwards, excluded from the 
 market-place and from temples all ' who had committed impiety 
 and who had confessed it'; and his enemies maintained that this 
 decree applied to him. The appeal was unsuccessful. He re- 
 turned to Athens only after the general amnesty of 403 B.C. 
 Having first deprecated the resentment felt against him for 
 having denounced the mutilators of the Hermae in 415 B.C. 
 (§v^ I — 9), he proceeds, in the following passage, to speak of his 
 life in exile — his services to the army at Samos in 411 b. c. — 
 his return to Athens during the rule of the Four Hundred — and 
 his imprisonment at the instance of Peisandros.

 II. nEPI TQN MYSTHPmN]— Date, 399 B.C.— Andokides 
 had laid information, in 415 B.C., against certain persons whom 
 he accused of complicity in the mutilation of the Hermae. He 
 did so on the guarantee of impunity (aSeta) which a special decree 
 of the Assembly had given to all who should inform. Subse- 
 quently another decree was passed — known as the decree of Isoti- 
 mldes — that all who had committed impiety, and had confessed it, 
 should be excluded from the market-place and the temples. 
 
 Andokides had returned to Athens under the amnesty of 403 
 B. c. His accusers now (399 b. c.) charge him with having broken 
 the decree of Isotimides by attending the Mysteries and entering 
 the temple at Eleusis. The form of the accusation is an eVSet^is 
 a(T€/3etas, an ' information ' charging him with impiety. But, in 
 order to prove that he came under the decree of Isotimides, they 
 had to show that he had committed impiety in 415 B.C. 
 
 His speech is to show that he had not done so, either by 
 profaning the Mysteries or by mutilating the Hermae. The 
 Mysteries, from which it takes its title, is only one of its topics. 
 It would be better described as a Defence on a Charge of Impiety. 
 As to the Mysteries, Andok. affirms that he neither profaned them 
 himself nor informed against others as having done so(§§ 11 — 2)Z). 
 But his account of the Hermae affair is the most important part 
 of the speech. (Analysis of the whole in the Attic Orators, i. 117.)

 The speech On the Peace with Lacedaemon belongs to 390 b. c, 
 the fourth year of the Corinthian War. Athens, Boeotia, Corinth 
 and Argos were at this time allied against Sparta. The success of 
 Agesilaos in 391 had led the Athenians, probably in the winter of 
 391 — 90 B.C., to send plenipotentiaries, among whom was Andoki- 
 des, to treat for peace at Sparta. According to the terms proposed 
 by the Lacedaemonians, Athens was to retain her Long Walls — ■ 
 rebuilt three years before by Konon — and her fleet ; she was also 
 to recover Lemnos, Imbros and Skyros : and Boeotia was to be 
 gratified by the withdrawal of the Spartan garrison from Orcho- 
 menos. The plenipotentiaries did not use their powers, but 
 requested that the Athenian ekklesia might have forty days in 
 which to consider these proposals ; and returned, accompanied by 
 Spartan envoys, to Athens. It was in the ensuing debate — early 
 in the year 390 — that the speech of Andokides was made. — Attic 
 Orators, i. 83. The genuineness of the speech has been ques- 
 tioned, but without sufficient reason. One passage of it (§§ 3 — 12) 
 was adopted, with slight modifications, by Aeschines {De Fals. 
 Legat. §§ 172 — 176). See Attic Orators, i. 129. 
 
 Andok. first shows that a peace with Sparta is not a danger to 
 the Athenian democracy (§§ i — 12). He then argues that there 
 is no good reason for continuing the war, and that the proposed 
 terms are peculiarly advantageous to Athens (^§ 13 — 23). If the 
 Boeotians make peace on their own account, Athens will be left

 in 425, and a third in 422. The application of Egesta for help 
 against Selinus led to the great expedition of 415 B.C. Andok.

 Life: between 444 and 436 b. c. ace. to K. F. Hermann, etc. :

 Style. Lysias takes up the development of Attic prose at a 
 point where the stiffness of the older rhetoric, as seen in Anti- 
 phon's work, had been modified, but no perfect reconciliation 
 had yet been effected between literary finish and the Attic idiom 
 of ordinary life. Lysias achieves this reconciliation. Unlike 
 Antiphon before him and Isokrates after him, he has the art 
 of concealing his art. His distinctive qualities are a delicate 
 mastery of the purest Attic, a subtle power of expressing character, 
 a restrained sense of humour, and a certain flexibiUty of mind 
 which enables him under the most diverse circumstances to write 
 with almost unfailing tact and charm, — with that x'^P'^j hardly 
 to be analysed save in so far as felicity of expression and an 
 essential urbanity are implied in it, which the old critics felt in 
 him. 
 
 Technically, Lysias represents the 'plain' manner as dis- 
 tinguished from the 'stately' and the 'middle': (tcrxvos x°-P°-'^'^VP> 
 XiTTi or d</)e/\.i}s Ae'^is, opp. to [xeyaXoTrpeTryjs and /xear] : Cic 
 or. 6. § 20 grandiloqui — tenues — medius et quasi temperatus.) 
 His compositmi (avv6eai?) varies with the subject and the oc- 
 casion. In the first of the following extracts, for example, the 
 OXv/xiriaKo?, we find elaborate and artistic periods. In the fifth 
 extract — from the Kara 'Eparoo-^cVou?, where the public and private 
 characters are combined — the periodic structure is blended with 
 a style of greater ease and simplicity. In the last extract, the 
 Kara IlayKXewvo?, the manner of the composition is throughout 
 of a simpler kind. The diction (A-e'^ts) of Lysias is marked by 
 a general avoidance of words or phrases foreign to the ordinary 
 idiom of the day; by abstinence from rhetorical figures, except 
 such as consist in the parallelism or opposition of clauses ; and 
 by the union of clearness with conciseness. His power of 
 delineating character (rjOoTroua) is illustrated by the speech

 I. OAYMniAKOS. [Or. xxxiii.]— This is a fragment— pro- 
 bably the greater part — of an oration delivered by Lysias at 
 Olympia. The great panhellenic festivals afforded an appropriate 
 opportunity to poets and orators who desired to speak, not of 
 those interests or glories which belonged to a single city, but of 
 those which were common to Greece. The ancient Greeks, 
 although they never formed a nation, had a national sentiment, 
 founded on community of blood, speech and manners : and this 
 sentiment was probably never called forth more vividly than 
 when Greeks of all cities came together at Nemea or at the 
 Isthmus, at Delphi or at Olympia.

 each others' cities — for the prize of their arms' (id.). 
 
 The Olympiakos of Lysias was spoken, according to Diodoros, 
 in the first year of the 98th Olympiad, 388 B.C. — the year before 
 the Peace of Antalkidas, by which the Corinthian \Var was 
 brought to a close. Athens, Thebes, Argos and Corinth had 
 then been seven years at war with Sparta. During this time 
 two powers, both dangerous to the freedom of Greece, had been 
 rapidly growing. In the east the naval strength of Persia had 
 become greater than it had been for a century. In the west 
 Dionysios I., tyrant of Syracuse, had reduced Naxos, Katana

 and Leontini : had twice defeated Carthage ; and was threaten- 
 ing the Greek towns of Italy. A magnificent embassy from 
 the court of Dionysios, with his brother Thearides at its head, 
 appeared at the Olympic festival of 388 B.C. Tents em- 
 broidered with gold were pitched in the sacred enclosure; a 
 number of splendid chariots were entered in the name of Dio- 
 nysios for the four-horse chariot-race ; while rhapsodists, whose 
 skill in recitation attracted crowds, repeated poems composed 
 by their royal master. While eye and ear were thus allured by 
 the glories of the Syracusan tyrant, Lysias lifted up his voice 
 to remind the assembled Greeks that in Dionysios they must 
 recognise one of the two great enemies of Greece. Let them not 
 admit to their sacred festival the representatives of an impious 
 despotism. Let them remember that their duty is to overthrow 
 that tyranny and to set Sicily free ; and let the war be begun 
 forthwith by an attack upon those glittering tents. — Attic Orators,

 TEIAN A0HNH2I. [Or. xxxiv.] — 'A Plea against abolishing 
 the ancestral Constitution of Athens ' : a fragment, preserved (like 
 the last) by Dionysios. When, after the fall of the Thirty, the 
 Democracy was restored in 403 B.C., it was the aim of Sparta to 
 restrict it. One Phormisios proposed in the Ekklesia that only 
 land-owners should have the franchise, a measure which, according 
 to Dionysios, would have excluded about five thousand citizens. 
 The speech from which he gives an extract was made against this 
 motion during a debate in the Ekklesia. It appears to have been 
 written by Lysias for some wealthy citizen who was not personally 
 affected by the proposal, and may probably be regarded as the 
 earliest of the orator's works now known. — Attic Orators, i. 211. \

 numerous than w^e are, while those of Mantineia do not number 
 3000'. Clinton (i^ H. 11. 517) computes that at this time 
 Argos and Athens may each have had about 16,000 male citi- 
 zens, which would give a total free population for each of about 
 66,000 : similarly the free population of Mantineia and its terri- 
 tory would be about 13,000 {i7>. p. 417).

 III. YUEP MANTI0EOY. [Or. xvi.]— The name occurs only 
 in the title, which, contrary to the general rule, is perhaps of the 
 same age as the speech — ' A Defence for Mantitheos on his 
 Scrutiny before the Senate'. The office to which this scrutiny 
 related was perhaps that of an ordinary senator, since in § 8 the 
 speaker cites instances of persons who had really done what he is 
 charged with doing, and had yet been admitted to the Senate. 
 The complaint against him was that his name appeared on the 
 list (o-ai'iSiov, § 6) of those who had served as Knights in the time of 
 the Thirty. As or. xxvi. against Evandros shows (§ 10), the fact 
 of such service under the Tyrants became, after the restoration 
 of the Democracy, a disqualification for the office of senator. 
 Mantitheos must, then, have been at least eighteen years of age 
 in 405 B.C., and so must have been born before 422. He refers 
 to his share in campaigns subsequent to that of 394 B.C. (§§ 15 — 
 18). On the other hand, the tone of § 15 rather suggests that 
 Thrasybulo* was still alive ; — that is, that the speech is earher 
 than 389 B.C. The date may have been about 392 B.C. The 
 speaker, who was taunted with youthful presumption (§ 20), 
 cannot have been much more than thirty. — Attic Orators, i. 245.

 V. KATA EPATO20ENOY2. [Or. xii.]— Polemarchos, 
 brother of Lysias, had been put to death by the Thirty Tyrants. 
 Eratosthenes, one of their number, was the man who had ar- 
 rested him and taken him to prison. In this speech Lysias, 
 himself the speaker, charges Eratosthenes with the murder of 
 Polemarchos, and, generally, with his share in the Tyranny. 
 A special clause in the Amnesty of 403 B.C. excluded the Thirty 
 Tyrants, (^he Ten who had succeeded them, and the Eleven who 
 had executed their sentences. But any one even of these might 
 enjoy the Amnesty if he chose to stand a public inquiry, and was 
 acquitted. When the oligarchy was finally overthrown, Pheidon

 VI. KATA ArOPATOY. [Or. xiii.]— Agoratos, son of a 
 slave, had gained the Athenian citizenship by pretending (falsely, 
 his accuser says) to have had a hand in the assassination of Phry- 
 
pp. 55, 56] NOTES. 211 
 
 nichos in 411 B.C. (§ 76.) For six years afterwards he had Hved 
 at Athens, exercising the trade of an informer, and laying ' all 
 conceivable indictments' (ras l^ dvOpwirwv ypa^as, § 73) before 
 the law-courts. He is now charged with having slandered away 
 the lives of several distinguished citizens just before the establish- 
 ment of the Thirty. 
 
 It was in the spring of 404 B.C. that Theramenes came back 
 from Sparta with the hard conditions of peace. Athens had been 
 suffering for months the extreme of famine and misery; the mass 
 of citizens were thankful for relief on any terms. But there were 
 still a few men, influential by their position and services, who 
 stood out against the bargain which the oligarchical party were 
 about to strike with Sparta. The oligarchs, impatient to get rid 
 of their opponents, had recourse to the aid of Agoratos. It was 
 arranged that he should himself be charged with plotting to defeat 
 the peace, and should then denounce a certain number of other 
 persons as his accomplices. One Theokritos accused him before 
 the Senate. A party of Senators went to the Peiraeus to arrest 
 him. Agoratos, feigning alarm, took sanctuary at the altar in the 
 temple of Artemis at Munychia. Certain citizens who suspected 
 him to be the victim, or the agent, of a plot, gave bail for him, 
 and offered to take him out of Attica to await quieter times. He 
 declined this proposal, and appeared before the Senate to give 
 information. He denounced, first, the men who had bailed him ; 
 then several of the Generals and taxiarchs (§ 13), among whom 
 were the General Strombichides, Dionysiodoros (kinsman of the 
 accuser in this case), and probably Eukrates the brother of Nikias ; 
 also a number of other citizens. These, with Agoratos himself, 
 were imprisoned ; and it was decreed that they should be tried 
 both by the Senate and by a special court of Two Thousand. 
 Immediately afterwards the peace with Sparta was ratified. 
 
 The government of the Thirty having been estabUshed, the 
 prisoners were tried ; but not by the Two Thousand ; only by a 
 new oligarchical Senate. They were all condemned to death, 
 except Agoratos, who was banished. In 404 B.C. he joined the 
 democratic exiles at Phyle, and afterwards returned to Athens 
 with them ; but appears to have been ill received (§ 77). He is 
 now accused of murder by Dionysios, cousin and brother-in-law 
 to Dionvsiodoros.

 65 VII. nEPI TOY SHKOY. [Or. vii.]— ' On the Sacred Olive'. 
 The man for whom this defence was written — a rich Athenian 
 citizen (§§ 21, 31) — had originally been charged with destroying 
 a moria, or sacred olive, on a farm which belonged to him. As 
 to do this was a fraud upon the Treasury, the form of the 
 original accusation had been an apographe {o.iT€.ypd4>r]v, § 2). 
 But the charge was not supported by the persons who had rented 
 from the State the produce of the moriae on this farm (ot ewvrj/AeVot 
 ToOs napTTov? Tcov fxopiMv, § 2). Thc accusers had therefore changed 
 their ground. They now charge the defendant merely with up- 
 rooting the fenced-in stump {<jy]Ko<i) of a moria ; and they lay 
 against him an indictment for impiety. The chief accuser is one 
 Nikomachos. 
 
 Throughout Attica, besides the olives which were private 
 property (lOtat cXatai, § lo), there were others which, whether 
 growing on public or on private lands, were considered as the 
 property of the State. These were called vioriae (/xoptai) — the 
 legend being that they had been propagated (/xc/xopr^/xeVai) from 
 the original olive which Athene herself had caused to spring 
 tip on the Akropolis. This theory was convenient for their con- 
 servation as State property, since, by giving them a sacred 
 character, it placed them directly under the care of the Areio- 
 pagos, which caused them to be visited once a month by In- 
 
pp. 64, 65] NOTES. 221 
 
 spectors (iinixcXrjTaL, § 29), and once a year by special Com- 
 missioners (yvoj/ioves, § 25). To uproot a i7wria was an offence 
 punishable by banishment and confiscation of goods (§ 41). 
 
 The case is tried by the Areiopagos under the presidency 
 of the Archon Basileus. The offence was alleged to have been 
 committed in the archonship of Suniades (§ 11), 01. 95. 4, 
 397 B.C. To judge from § 42 (too-otjto) xp*''"? ^''o"''fpov) the trial

 67 VIII. KATA ©E0MNH2T0Y A. [Or. x.]— Theomnestos, a 
 young Athenian, had been indicted by one Lysitheos for tnrowing 
 away his shield in battle, but had been acquitted. The present 
 speaker had been among the witnesses of Lysitheos, and in the 
 course of the trial had been called a parricide by Theomnestos. 
 A certain Dionysios, also a witness of Lysitheos, was next prose- 
 cuted by Theomnestos for perjury, and was- sentenced to dis- 
 franchisement (§ 22). The present speaker then brought his 
 action against Theomnestos. 
 
 The Athenian law against Defamation {KaK-qyopla) punished 
 with a fine of 500 drachmas (abou^ £,20) the utterance of certain 
 reproaches classed as d-n-opprp-a (§ 2). To call a citizen a mur- 
 derer, a striker of father or mother, or to charge him with having 
 thrown away#his shield in battle, was among these. The present 
 case had already been submitted to arbitrators (§ 6) ; it now came 
 before an ordinary court, under the presidency of the Thesmo- 
 thetae. 
 
 From § 4 the date is certain. The speaker had been thirteen 
 years old in the time of the Tyrants (404 — 3 b. c), and was now 
 thirty-three: the speech belongs therefore to 384 — 3 B.C. — Aff/c

 IX. KATA nArKAEfiNOS. [Or. xxiii.]— I'he speaker had 
 formerly indicted Pankleon, a fuller living at Athens (§ 2), for 
 some offence not specified, and, believing him to be a resident- 
 alien, had summoned him before the Polemarch, who heard cases 
 in which foreigners were concerned. Pankleon thereupon put in 
 a ' plea to the jurisdiction ', on the ground that he was a Plataean 
 by birth, and, as such, entitled at Athens to the rights of an 
 Athenian citizen : and that, therefore, the action ought not to have 
 been brought before the Polemarch. This plea {Trapaypa<fi7]) gave 
 rise to a previous trial to decide whether the action, in its original 
 form, could be brought into court (§ 5). In such a case the first 
 speech was usually made by the maintainer of the special plea : 
 here it is evidently made by the opponent. The date is un- 
 certain. — A///c Orators, I. 302. 
 
 § I. op^ws T^v Blk7]v eXaxov] ' brought the action in proper 
 form '. The speaker's object is to show that Pankleon is not an 
 Athenian citizen but a foreigner, and that therefore the Polemarch 
 was the magistrate' w4io had jurisdiction in the Slkt]. What the

 cerned solely with the question concerning lis, form. The issue is 
 that raised by the Trapaypac^rj, or special plea, put in by Pankleon, 
 who relied on exceptio fori, denying that the Polemarch had juris- 
 diction. Every answer made in writing by a defendant to a plain- 
 tiff was dvTLypa(J3-Q. The irapaypa^iy] was a species of avTiypacfn^ — 
 that answer, namely, which consisted in an objection to the form 
 of the procedure. Hence in § 5 we read, avTeypdij/aTo p.t)

 Style. The work of Isokrates was to establish a standard 
 type of hterary rhetorical prose. His discourses were meant to 
 be read rather than to be spoken. This is one essential charac- 
 teristic which distinguishes them from the compositions of the 
 other Attic orators. Isokrates is properly aiiJ_orator ' onlyJn_his 
 forensic speeches, the earliest, and in his own view the least 
 significant, of his writings. In his later life he altogether repu- 
 diated Forensic Rhetoric : on the other hand, ' want of voice and 
 nerve ', as he tells us, deterred him from taking part in the debates 
 of the Ekklesia. The real work of his life was twofold. First, he 
 was an educator, the head of a school which became renowned — 
 teaching young men the art which he calls rj twv A-oywi/ TratSet'a, the 
 discipline of discourse — meaning by this, the art of speaking and 
 writing on large political subjects, considered as a preparation 
 for advising or acting in political affairs. (Cp. Attic Orators, ir. ch. 
 XIII. on his <f>L\oa-ocjiLa, or theory of culture.) Secondly, he was a 
 political essayist. In this quality — his writings being widely read 
 throughout Greece — he had perhaps a greater influence on popular 
 opinion than belonged to any literary man of his time. The style 
 of hterary prose which he developed had found general acceptance 
 before 350 B.C.; through Greek teachers who gave it a more 
 florid colour, it did much to mould the style of Cicero, who 
 speaks of himself as using 'all the fragrant essences of Isokrates, 
 and all the little stores of his disciples' {ad Att. 11. i); and 
 through Cicero, or directly, it has exerted an influence on modern 
 literature. It has been truly remarked that, for the modern 
 world, the oratory of the preacher is the best image of that 
 grave eloquence in which Isokrates excelled. Isokrates is one of 
 three Greek writers — Plato and Demosthenes being the others — 
 to whom Bossuet declares himself most indebted in the matter 
 of style. 
 
 Isokrates has not the distinctively Attic spirit, the subtle grace 
 or finished simplicity of Lysias. His dictio/i, indeed, resembles 
 that of Lysias in purity, and also— though it has a general bent 
 
234 SELECTIONS. [Isokrates 
 
 towards grandeur — in avoiding ornament of a poetical kind. But 
 his composition is of an altogether different stamp. Instead of 
 aiming at the vigorous compression fittest for real contests, it has 
 a certain rich diffuseness. Dionysios speaks of the vTraywyiK-rj 
 TTcptoSos, the 'meandering' periods of Isokr. — having in his mind 
 such an image as that of a river which leads us on from bend to 
 bend through the soft beauties of its winding course. Isokrates was 
 the first great artist in a Greek prose which, without being bound 
 by the constraints of vicfre (e/xjuerpos), has yet a free rhytlun of 
 its own (ivpv6iJ.w<; Koi [JL0V(TLK<2<; eivretv, Adz'. Sop/l. § 1 6, p. 83). 
 The peculiar smoothness of Isokr, results esp. from his careful 
 observance of h.\?> own rule, Sei ra ^wvT^evra jur} avfJCTrLineiv, i.e. a 
 vowel at the end of a word must not be followed by a vowel at 
 the beginning of the next, Plutarch speaks of Isokr, as d (fiofSov- 
 /u,€vos (})iov7]ev (ji(DV7]ei'TL avyKpovaai {De Glor. AtJien. c. 8), Demos- 
 thenes did not press this rule so far {Attic Orators, 11. 67), The 
 figures (a-xwoLTo) specially used by Isokr, are those which depend 
 on parallelism: viz, (i) dvTiO^cri'; — a parallelism in sense: (2) 
 Trapt'o-wcris, a parallelism in form between two clauses or sentences : 
 (3) Trapo/Aotwcris, a parallelism of sound, when the latter of two 
 clauses gives an echo of the former, either at its opening or at its 
 close, or throughout. The same antithetical bent appears in 
 Isokr. 's treatment of subject-matter, where his habit is to work 
 out a leading idea by developing all the contrasts which it 
 suggests. Thus the subject of the Panegyrikos is a Greek war 
 with Persia. Greece is dealt with in the first part, Persia in the 
 second : in part I., again, Athens is contrasted with Sparta : the 
 services of Athens to Greece are divided into the civil and the 
 military, — the latter being classed as in wars between Greeks or 
 in wars between Greek and barbarian : part II. shows that Persia 
 is open to%ttack,, while Greece has every motive for attacking. 
 
 Isokrates marks the moment at which the purest Attic prose 
 begins to pass over into an artificial literary prose of greater rich- 
 ness, but with less of spiritual grace and delicate precision. In 
 this respect his literary style corresponds to his intellectual posi- 
 tion. He belongs to the latter days of free Hellenic life, and 
 while he has the political exclusiveness of a true Hellene, is 
 already able to conceive that men not Hellenic in blood should 
 come to share in Hellenic culture — a conception which, in the 
 
pp. 73, 74] NOTES. 235 
 
 generation after his own, began to be realised by the civiUsation 
 of Hellenism. This has been well brought out by Curtius {Hist. 
 Greece \. 116, 204). ' Athens', says Isokr., 'has so distanced the 
 rest of the world in power of thought and speech that her disciples 
 have become the teachers of all other men. - She has brought it 
 to pass that the name of Greek should be thought no longer a 
 matter of race' but a matter of intelligence; and should be given 
 to the participators in our culture rather than to the sharers of our 
 common origin': Pancgyr. § 50. — See Attic Orators, 11. 16;

 I. NIK0KAH2 H KYnPIOL [Or. in.]— Nikokles sue- 74 
 ceeded his father Evagoras as king of the Cyprian Salamis in 
 374 B.C. The discourse of Isokrates entitled IIpos NiKo/cXe'a (or. 
 II.) was addressed to the young king soon after his accession. It 
 is a series of precepts on the duty of a ruler to his subjects. The 
 NtKOKXiys 7} Ki;7rptoi is a companion piece to the former. Here it 
 is Nikokles who is supposed to speak, and who instructs his Sala- 
 minian subjects in their duties towards their king. Since the 
 prince can appeal to his people's past experience of his rule (§63), 
 the date can hardly be earlier than 372 B.C. : on the other hand it 
 cannot be later than 355 B.C., and may probably be placed 
 between 372 and 365 B.C. 
 
 In the following passage the king urges the advantages of a 
 Monarchy as compared with an Oligarchy or a Republic. Here 
 Isokrates is essentially the professional rhetor — it being distinctive

 to argue either side of a question {ravavTia o-uXXoyi^crai, Ar. Ji/icf.

 (p. Ill) as well as in Xht Fanathc?iaikos,v{\\tre he interprets his 
 own political ideal, — a Democracy tempered by a censorship. —

 The advantages claimed for Monarchy, it will be seen, are 
 briefly these : (i) it discriminates merit, §§ 14, 15 : (2) it has more 
 insight into the natures and actions of men : (3) it is the mildest 
 of governments, § 16 : (4) its ministers learn and perform their 
 duties more thoroughly, §§ 17 — 18: (5) it is prompt in action, 
 § 19; (6) it has fewer jealousies, § 20 : (7) it has a more direct 
 interest in good government, §21: (8) it is more effective in war,

 77 II. EAENH2 EFKOMION. [Or. x].— The Encomium on 
 Helen (like another of his works, the Biisiris, or. xi.) is a slight 
 essay by Isokr. in a province not his own. Declamations on sub- 
 jects taken from epos or from the myths had always a prominent 
 place among the ' displays ' of ordinary Sophists. Such, for 
 instance, are the Encomium on Helen and the Dcfeiice of Palamedes 
 ascribed to Gorgias ; the speech of Odysseus Against Palamedes 
 ascribed to Alkidamas; the speeches of Ajax and Odysseus in 
 the contest for the arms, ascribed to Antisthenes. The bent of 
 Isokrates, as he himself tells us, was not towards this kind of 
 composition. He was not, indeed, hostile to it, any more than 
 he was hostile to criticism of the poets and other branches of 
 literary work which employed the Sophists. The encomia which 
 he depreciates in or. x. § 12 are encomia on bumble-bees and 
 salt; on the other hand he expressly commends the choice of 
 such a subjipct as Helen (§ 14) ; and if he speaks of Busiris as a 
 poor theme (or. xi. § 22), he clearly means only that it is one 
 which baffles the panegyrist. Yet it is important to note that he 
 comes upon this field of ' display ' not as a candidate for distinc- 
 tion, but merely as a critic. The Busiris and the Encomium on 
 Helen are alike criticisms, in which he first reviews the work of 
 others, and then shows, for the sake of vindicating his right to 
 criticise, how he would have done the work himself. 
 
 Two indications help to fix the time at which Isokrates wrote. 
 I. From § 3 it may be inferred that Gorgias was dead; and

 Gorgias died about 380 B.C. 2. In § i there is an allusion to the 
 three chief Sokratic sects — the Cynics, the Academy, the Mega- 
 rics. These sects must have already been mature. The language 
 implies further that Antisthenes, founder of the Cynics — who died 
 in 376 B.C. — is still alive. The Encomium may probably be put 
 about 370 B.C. — Attic Orators, 11. 93, 102.

 III. EYArOPAS. [Or. ix.]— On the occasion of a festival 
 held by Nikokles, king of the Cyprian Salaniis (cp. introd. to 
 or. III., p. 235), in memory of his father Evagoras (who died in 
 374 B.C.), Isokrates sent this encomium as his tribute. The date 
 is probably about 365 b. c. 
 
 Evagoras appears to have been a man of unusually strong 
 character, and of great abilities both military and political. Cyprus 
 was divided between Phoenician settlements, such as Kition and 
 Paphos, and later Greek settlements, such as Salamis and Soli. 
 But the bulk of the population was, till long after the time of 
 Evagoras, Phoenician ; and continual contact with the non-hel- 
 lenic East must always have tended to depress the Greek element 
 in Cyprus. Evagoras was the champion of Hellenism against 
 barbarism at this out-post ; first, as restorer of that Greek civilisa- 
 tion which the Phoenician and Tyrian masters of Salamis had 
 effaced ; afterwards, as antagonist of Persia in a War of Inde- 
 pendence. Perhaps the most striking passage in the memoir is 
 the following, which describes how commerce, arts, letters, humane 
 intercourse with the outer world, having become extinct under the 
 rule of the barbarian, speedily sprang into a new life under the 
 rule of the Hellene. — Altic Orators, 11. 113. 
 
 §§ 47-50- 
 §47. ■iTapakaji(x>v rrjv ttoXlv eK;5.] 'When the city (Salamis) 
 came into his hands, it had been reduced to barbarism ; owing to 
 the domination of the Phoenicians, it had no intercourse with 
 Greeks, no knowledge of the useful arts, no commerce, no har- 
 bour : but he supplied all these deficiencies ', etc. 
 
 SloL Tyv Twv ^oLVLKoiv dpx-^ The earliest Greek immigrants into 
 Cyprus seem to have found Phoenicians already established. The 
 Greek settlements traced their origin to Athens, Salamis, Arkadia, 
 Kythnos (one of the Kyklades) : Her. vii. 90. Long after the 
 time at which Isokrates is writing the Phoenician element in 
 Cyprus greatly preponderated over the Hellenic : thus Skylax in 
 his IlepiTrXoi)?, p. 97 (written in the time of Philip of Macedon, 
 359 — 23^ B.C.), calls the inhabitants of the interior collectively 
 ' barbarians '. Of the Greek cities on the coast, the chief in the 
 
p. 78] NOTES. 243 
 
 time of Skylax seem to have been Salamis, Soli and Marion. 
 (See Rawlinson on Her. v. 104.) 
 
 In 500 B.C. the Cyprian Salamis was ruled by a dynasty of 
 Greek princes tributary to Persia (Her. v. 104, 114). Ace. to 
 Isokr., this Greek dynasty — which claimed descent from Teukros 
 — was dispossessed by a Phoenician adventurer {Ik $otytK>^s avrjf) 
 if)vyd<;, § 19), whose descendants (e/<y«vot, § 21) held the throne 
 until it was again taken from them by Evagoras, the heir of the 
 old Greek kings. 
 
 Grote would place the Phoenician usurpation about 450 B.C. 
 (x. 21), with good reason: though Isokr. at least seems to have 
 conceived it as occurring much earlier. The restoration of the 
 Greek 'Teukrid' dynasty by Evagoras cannot have been later 
 than 411 B.C., in which year Andokides visited Cyprus, and found 
 Evagoras reigning at Salamis, [Lys.] /// Andok. § 28. And Eva- 
 goras must have been 'not merely established, but powerful' 
 (Grote X. 25) when he ventured to harbour Konon after Aegos- 
 potami (405 B.C.). At the time of his death in 374 B.C. Evagoras 
 was an old man (§ 71).

 IV. KATA TON 20$l2TON. [Or. xiii.]— 'Against the 
 Sophists'. — As Isokr. himself tells us {Antid. § 193), this discourse 
 was written at the beginning of his professional life ; and it may 
 probably be assigned to the year 391 or 390 B.C. The speech 
 would thus have the character of a manifesto in which, at the outset 
 of his career, the teacher protests against the system adopted by 
 other members of his profession, and declares the principles by 
 which he himself intends to be guided. In its extant form the 
 discourse is plainly imperfect. It breaks off at the point where 
 Isokr. is passing — as he passes in the introductions to the 
 Busiris and the Encomium on Helen — from destructive criticism 
 to positive illustration. 
 
 Isokr. accepts for himself the name of o-of^io-rrfs, as of 
 honourable import when rightly understood (A/itid. § 220), but 
 distinguishes himself from the dyeXoLot <TO(^t(jTat, the common herd 
 of the profession {Panathen. § 18). Under the title of o-ot^io-rui', 
 three classes of teachers are censured in this piece, viz. : — 
 
 (i) The Eristics, — 01 Trcpl ras eptSas 8taTpt)3ovTes, § 2 : whose 
 characteristic is that they profess, for a small fee, to impart abso- 
 lute knowledge {hnsr^i^- Isokr. probably includes, if he does 
 not specially designate, tlie minor Sokratics, and particularly 
 Eukleides.

 XoyoDs vTncryvuv/xevoL — meaning the teachers of Practical Rhetoric,

 Deliberative and Forensic. Now the general aim of these 
 teachers was that of Isokr. himself, viz. to train men for the 
 active duties of civic life. The point of this censure is that they 
 claim too large and infallible an efficacy for their method : TratSeta, 
 instruction, can do much, but it must be aided by i^vcn?, natural 
 aptitude, and by e/xTretpta, experience. 
 
 (3) The writers of Treatises on Rhetoric, 01 ras re'^vas ypa- 
 i/^avres. These are censured for devoting themselves to the Rhe- 
 toric of the law-courts, neglecting the higher or political province 
 of their art, and so becoming ' teachers of meddlesomeness and 
 greed'. 
 
 Here, Isokr. is stating what his c^t\oa-o<^ta, or theory of culture, 
 is not. In the discourse on the Antidosis (written 35 years later, 
 ill 353 B.c — see p. 85) he states what it is. — Attic Orators^ 11.

 special sense of Isokr., is the art of speaking or writing on 
 large political subjects, considered as a preparation for advising 
 or acting in political affairs. See Attic Orators, 11. 36, ch. xiii,

 Sokratics, e.g. Antisthenes and the Cynics, Eukleides and the

 tnium on tielen, § i. There, we find a clear allusion to Plato 
 also, as teaching that Valour, Wisdom and Justice form the 
 subject-matter of one science. Here there is prob. no reference 
 to Plato, who at this time (390 B.C.) was perh. not yet conspicu- 
 ous: in the Panathenaikos, however, (339 b.c.) the cpio-riKot 8ia- 
 Aoyot named as popular with young men (§ 118) must certainly 
 include the dialogues of Plato.

 The mention of kTvidj-rnkri here again points to the Sokratics. The 
 view of Isokr. was that the teacher of (/)tA.oo-o(^ia has to prepare men 
 to deal with occasions (Katpoi) as they arise. It is impossible to 
 foresee exactly all these occasions ; there can be no science (eVt- 
 cTTi'iixi]) of them. There can be only opinion (So^a), conjecture 
 (o-roxao-yud?), about them : and he is the wisest man who — exact 
 foresight being out of the question — can best conjecture what any 
 given crisis will demand of him {Attic Orators, 11. 40). Cp.

 V. HEPI ANTIAOSEfiS. [Or. xv.]— ' On the Antidosis', or 
 'Exchange of Properties'.— In the discourse 'Against the Sophists' 
 Isokr. sought to distinguish his own conception of his calling — as 
 a croc^icTTT/s in the higher sense — from those of teachers whose 
 views he deemed false and mischievous. In the present discourse 
 ■ — written 35 years later (353 B.C.) — he explains his own conception 
 more fully, and defends his art {-q twv Aoywv TraiScta) against its 
 assailants generally. Taken together, these two essays express 
 his whole literary and educational creed, both on its negative and 
 on its positive side : they are the prologue and epilogue of his 
 professional life. 
 
 Isokrates had lately been called upon to undertake the tri- 
 erarchy, or to make exchange of properties {atitidosis) with his 
 challenger. The case had come to a trial ; the trierarchy had 
 been imposed upon Isokrates, and he had discharged it (§ 5). 
 Vexed, however, by the general prejudice against his pursuits to 
 which he felt that the verdict had been due, he determined to 
 publish an Apologia — a discourse ' which should be an image of 
 his mind and life ' (§ 7). This he throws into the form of a speech 
 made in court against one Lysimachos (§ 14), who, by working on 
 popular prejudice, is seeking to cast the burden of the trierarchy 
 upon him. Much of the discourse is not, he allows, in the forensic 
 style (§ 10); yet, by the concluding allusion to a verdict (§ 323), 
 he aims, in some measure, at sustaining the fiction to the end. 
 
 It is known that, in 355 B.C., Isokrates had really been chal- 
 lenged to an exchange of properties by one Megakleides ; and, 
 being unable through illness to appear in court, had been repre- 
 sented by his adopted son Aphareus, whose speech on the occa- 
 sion is quoted by Dionysios. Now this is probably the trial to 
 which Isokrates refers as having been decided against him. It 
 must have taken place at least a year before the date of this dis- 
 course, since it is implied that the public service had now been

 VI. nANHrYPIKOX [Or. iv.]— The title means, 'A Discourse 
 for a PubHc Festival': in this case, for the Olympic festival of 380 
 B.C. The duty of Hellenic unity against the barbarian had already 
 been the theme of Gorgias and of Lysias in speeches delivered 
 at Olympia. It is not likely that, like theirs, the oration of Iso- 
 krates was recited at the festival by its author. His want of nerve 
 and voicf, and much in the composition itself, would probably 
 have deterred him from such an attempt. The discourse may, 
 indeed, have been recited for him ; but it is more likely that 
 it was first introduced to the Greek public by copies circulated 
 at Olympia, and sent to cities in which Isokrates had friends 
 among the leading men. 
 
 His appeal to Panhellenic patriotism was made at a time 
 when such patriotism was sorely needed. By the Peace of An- 
 talkidas in 387 B.C. Artaxerxes II. had become master of the 1 
 Asiatic Greeks, and ultimate arbiter in the affairs of western

 Hellas ; the Aegean, no longer protected by an Athenian fleet, 
 was infested by pirates ; the party strife which the dekarchies had 
 exasperated was everywhere filling the smaller cities with blood- 
 shed ; and Sparta, regardless of the autonomy which the Peace 
 had guaranteed to every state, was using these troubles for her 
 own ends. In 385 B.C. the Spartans had destroyed Mantineia; 
 in 383, besieged Olynthos ; in 382, seized the Kadmeia ; in 380, 
 besieged Phlius. 
 
 The Paiiegyrikos falls into two main divisions. In the first 
 (§§ I — 132) Isokrates urges that Athens and Sparta, laying aside 
 their jealousies, should assume the joint leadership of Greece. 
 He argues that, if Sparta at present holds the first place, Athens 
 has the better historical claim to it ; and that, therefore, a com- 
 promise might well be made. In the second part (§§ 133 — 189) 
 he shows the direction in which the forces of Greece, once con- 
 solidated, ought to be turned — namely against Persia. 
 
 The Paiiegyrikos is the earliest and the most complete expres- 
 sion of its author's ruling political idea — the idea of a Panhellenic 
 War on Persia. This, he believed, would heal Greek discord, 
 liberate the Asiatic Greeks, draft the roving and lawless paupers 
 who infested Greece into new Asiatic settlements, and bring 
 wealth into Greece Proper. (See the Life of Isokr., Attic Orators, 
 II. 20 f.) The tradition that Isokr. spent ten or more years on 
 this discourse {Quint, x. 4: Plut. Alor. 350 e) shows the ancient 
 feeling that it was a masterpiece of careful work. It is, indeed, 
 admirable alike for finished brilliancy of composition and for the 
 lucid power with which a wide range of topics and a multitude 
 of details are marshalled in subordination to the central thought. 
 
 Motives for an Invasion of Persia : §§ 160 — 186. 
 
 § 160. <ooT€ /;ioi So/cet] The general and permanent causes of 
 Persian weakness have just been stated : viz. that the country 
 cannot have good soldiers while the mass of the people is an 
 unruly, nerveless and slavish mob, or good generals, while the Per- 
 sians of the upper classes are insolent and abject by turns, with 
 pampered bodies and craven spirits. He now goes on to urge 
 that the present moment is peculiarly favourable for an attack 
 by the united forces of Greece.

 Vn. $IAmn02. [Or. v.]— This appeal to Philip of Mace- 
 don may fitly be taken after the Panegyrikos. As the latter 
 recommends that Athens should lead a Panhellenic War against 
 Persia, so this discourse presses the task on Philip. It is the final 
 expression — as the other was the first — of a life-long desire. 
 
 Philip had taken Amphipolis in 358 B.C. and Potidaea in 356, 
 The hostilities between him and Athens, carried on intermittently 
 from 356, were closed in March, 346, by the so-called Peace of 
 Philokrates. Before that event Isokrates had been composing a 
 letter to Philip ' On Amphipolis ', urging, in favour of peace, 
 that Amphipolis, the chief cause of the war, was not a desirable 
 possession either for Athens or for the king of Macedon (§§ 1,3). 
 
 This letter had not been sent when peace was concluded (§ 7). 
 Isokrates now writes on another and a larger subject. He sees in 
 Philip, at length reconciled to Athens, the man who can lead the 
 united Hellenes against Persia. Ever since the failure of the 
 PanegyrikoSf^ to bring about such an expedition under the joint 
 leadership of Athens and Sparta, he had been looking for an 
 individual powerful enough to execute his favourite plan (§§ 84, 
 128, 129). He had already applied to Dionysios I. — probably 
 about 368 B.C. {Ep. I. § 8) — and in 356 to Archidamos III. {Ep. 
 IX. § 16). This oration was addressed to Philip soon after the 
 Peace (§§ 8, 56), but before the conclusion of the Sacred War 
 (§§ 54) 74); that is, between IMarch and July, 346 B.C. 
 
 The most striking characteristic of the whole discourse is the 
 recognition of Philip as the first of Hellenes and the natural

 (Attic Orators, 11. 239) : KTrjo-ajxevov, then, cannot = ' on his acquir-

 into two great chapters, that which preceded and that which /ot/orced 
 his acquisition of the tyranny. Isokr. felt that the war must be 
 led either by a city or by a prince. He appealed successively to

 VIII. nAATAIKOS. [Or. XIV.]— The revolution of 379 E.G. 106 
 at Thebes had been a blow to Spartan influence throughout 
 Hellas, and especially in Boeotia. Agesilaos in 378 and 377, 
 Kleombrotos in 378 and 376, had invaded Boeotia without gain- 
 ing any advantage. By the end of 376 the oligarchies supported 
 by Sparta had been abolished in all the Boeotian towns except 
 Orchomenos; and the Boeotian Confederacy, with Thebes at its 
 head, had been reconstituted. 
 
 After its destruction in 427 B.C. Plataea had been left desolate 
 till 386, when it was rebuilt by Sparta as a stronghold against 
 Thebes. Cut off from Spartan support, Plataea had come (377 
 or 376 B.C.) into the Boeotian Confederacy; but, like Thespiae 
 and Tanagra (§ 9), had joined it unwillingly. The relief felt by 
 most other towns at riddance from the philo-Spartan oligarchies 
 was more than balanced, in the case of Thespiae, Tanagra and 
 Plataea, by hatred of Thebes. Diodoros states that the Pla- 
 taeans secretly offered their town to Athens. At any rate the 
 alarm felt at Plataea was so great that it was only on the days of 
 public assemblies at Thebes that the men ventured to go into the 
 fields, leaving their wives and children within the walls. 
 
 On one of these days a Theban force under the Boeotarch 
 Neokles surprised Plataea, in the latter half of 373 b.c. The 
 town was destroyed, and the territory was again annexed to Thebes. 
 The inhabitants, with such property as they could carry, sought 
 refuge, like their ancestors in 427, at Athens. Their case was 
 discussed there, not merely in the ekklesia, but in the congress of 
 the allies (onji/eSptov § 21); Kallistratos being the foremost advocate 
 of Plataea, as Epameinondas of Thebes. It was not till 338, after 
 Chaeroneia, that Plataea was restored; this time through the 
 enmity of Philip, as formerly through the enmity of Sparta, towards 
 Thebes. 
 
 The speech of Isokrates is supposed to be spoken by a 
 Plataean before the ekklesia; and there is nothing in the matter 
 or form of the speech itself to make it improbable that it was

 110 X. APXIAAMO2. [Or. VI.]— At the beginning of 366 B.C. 
 Sparta, Athens, Corinth and the smaller states dependent on 
 Corinth, as Epidauros and Phlius, were allied, and were at war 
 with Thebes and her allies, of whom the chief was Argos. But in 
 that year the treacherous attempt of Athens to seize Corinth gave 
 the Corinthians a sense of insecurity and a desire for peace. 
 They accordingly sent envoys to Thebes, asking on what terms 
 peace would be granted to the allies. The Thebans prescribed, 
 as one condition of peace, the recognition of the independence of 
 Messene, the new state founded by Epameinondas in 370. A 
 congress met at Sparta. The Spartans refused to recognise the 
 independence of Messene; and accordingly remained, with 
 Athens, at war against Thebes. The Corinthians, Epidaurians, 
 Phliasians, and probably some other small states, accepted the 
 condition, and made peace on their own account, p.. c. 366 : 
 see § 91. t 
 
 The Archldamos is in the form of a deliberative speech. It 
 purports to be spoken in 366 B.C., by Archidamos III., son of the 
 king Agesilaos, during a debate at Sparta on the Theban proposal. 
 There seems no reason to doubt that the speech was written in 
 366 B.C., either just before or soon after the actual decision of the 
 question. It may have been composed in the first instance as an 
 exercise ; yet, as discussing a question of contemporary politics 
 from the point of view which a large party at Sparta must really 
 have taken, it claims to be considered as something more.

 XI. APEOnAriTIKOS. [Or. vii.]— As a picture of the older 
 Athenian Democracy this discourse supplements the Pimegyrikos. 
 The latter describes the external relations of Athens in her great 
 days ; the Areopagitikos, her inner life. 
 
 In this speech Isokrates contrasts the Athenian Democracy 
 as it existed in the middle of 'the 4th century B.C. with the Demo- 
 cracy of Solon and of Kleisthenes (§ 16). He dwells chiefly on 
 two features of the elder Democracy : — i. the preference of 
 election (atpco-is) to ballot (/<Xi7p(Dcri9) in the appointment of state 
 officers, §§ 22 ff. ; 2. the supervision of public morals exercised 
 by the Council of the Areiopagos : §§ 36 — 55. It is owing to 
 the prominence of the latter topic that the speech has been called 
 'ApcoTrayiTtKo?. It is cast in a deliberative form. Isokrates sup- 
 poses himself to have given notice in writing to the prytanes of 
 an intention to speak ' On the Safety of Athens ' (TrepI o-wrv/ptas 
 Trpoo-oSov aTToypdij/aaOaL, §§ I, 15); and to be now urging in the 
 ekklesia, a» absolutely necessary to the welfare of the city, the 
 restoration of censorial power to the Areiopagos (cp. § 84). Like 
 the Dd Pace (Or. viii.), this speech was not delivered, or meant 
 for delivery, in the Assembly. The deliberative form was adopted 
 merely for the sake of giving greater life and impressiveness to 
 the pleading. 
 
 The date is to be inferred from five indications: — (i) There 
 was now peace on the frontiers of Attica (ra Trepl T-qv x^po-^'), and 
 a confident sense of security at Athens, §§ i — 3 : (2) The Athe- 
 nians had 'lost all the cities in Thrace', (§ 9): (3) had spent 
 
p. Ill] NOTES. 299 
 
 more than 1000 talents on mercenaries, ib.: (4) had got a bad 
 name m Hellas and incurred the enmity of Persia, § 10 : (5) had 
 been forced 'to save the friends of the Thebans' and to lose 
 their own allies. The latter half of 355 B.C. is the date to which 
 these indications seem to point. (See Aftk Orators, 11. 202 f., 
 where the question of the date is examined in detail.) 
 
 The powers exercised by the Areiopagos before the reforms 
 of Ephialtes were of two kinds, definite and indefinite. The 
 definite powers were: i. A limited criminal jurisdiction: 2. the 
 supreme direction of religious worship, especially of the cultus of 
 the Eumenides. The indefinite powers were : i. A general super- 
 vision of all magistrates and law-courts : 2. a general guardianship 
 of the laws, with the right of protest (though not of veto) when 
 proposed new laws conflicted with old : 3. a general control of 
 the education of the young : 4. a general censorship of public 
 morals : 5. competence to assume, in emergencies of the State, 
 a dictatorial authority. 
 
 The definite powers of the Areiopagos were never at any 
 time taken from it. But Ephialtes abolished almost wholly the 
 indefinite powers. It is for the revival of these — especially of 
 (3) and (4) — that Isokrates is anxious. While it possessed these, 
 the Areiopagos had been the strongest influence, though mainly 
 a negative influence, in the State; it had been able to impress 
 a conservative character upon the whole civic body. Deprived 
 of these, it was merely a criminal court of narrow competence. 
 Its connexion with what was most venerable in the old religion, 
 and the high standing of its individual members, still secured 
 to it, indeed, a large measure of respect. Isokrates speaks of the 
 good influence which, even in his own day, wrought on those 
 who became members of the college. But politically the Areio- 
 pagos was now powerless. The plea of Isokrates for a restoration 
 of its strength is strikingly illustrated by the protest of Aeschylos 
 against its enfeeblement. It is not on any well-defined function, 
 but rather on those prerogatives which, being vague, were bound- 
 less, that orator and poet alike insist : — 
 
 Here, on the Hill of Ares, 
 Once seat and camp of Amazons who came 
 In anger against Theseus, and defied 
 From their new ramparts his acropolis.

 § 36. yeyei^r/ju-eVa?] I believe this to be the true reading, and not 
 ytyvo/xeVas (= at lyiyvovTo, adopted by Benseler from the Urbino 
 ms.), because the perf. better expresses the feeling of Isokr. that this 
 glorious chapter of Athenian history was closed. The Trpa^eis are 
 the political and social life of Athens under the Old Democracy, 
 and before the rule of the demagogues. Isokr. would date the 
 latter from the death of Perikles — regarding the administration 
 of Perikles as a transitional period, in which the deterioration, 
 moral and political, was mitigated by the personal qualities of 
 the leader: see esp. Z>e Face % 126, p. 109, 'n.€pLKXy]'i...Xa/3aji' tt^v

 The other 5000 were divided into 10 sections of 500 each. On 
 the morning of each day when the courts sat, lots were cast to 
 determine which court should be assigned, for that day, to each 
 section. In some cases only part of one section was employed ; 
 in others, two or more sections sat together, — the number of 
 dikasts in a court ranging from 200 to 1500 or even 2000. The 
 courts were assigned by lots to the dikasts (tc3i/ StKao-TT^piW eViKc- 
 KXrjpwixivwv, Dem. Adv. Pantaen. § 39), Each dikast received a 
 ticket (crvixjSoXov — not mvaKiov, which denoted the tablet given to 
 each of the 6000 heliasts of the year), and a staff, (^aKTTjpta, of the 
 colour which distinguished the court in which he was to sit (o/ao-

 ticket, he received his day's fee from the KwAoxpeVat. 
 
 A// who ' drew lots before the law-courts ' were already heliasts. 
 The only uncertainty was as to whether they should be employed 
 on that particular day. And this is the very point of the passage. 
 The dikast's fee, wretched as it was, had actually become the 
 main-stay of citizens who were living from hand to mouth. Cp.

 emergency) they were called avrcperat (Thuc. iii. 18). The Pen-

 117 XII. AiriNHTIKOS. [Or. xix.]— The six forensic speeches 
 of Isokrates which are extant cover a period of about ten years, 
 403 — 393 B.C. The speech Against Euthynus (xxi) maybe placed 
 in 403, immediately after the restoration of the Democracy; that 
 Against Kallimachos (xviii) in 402 ; the De Bigis (xvi) in 397 
 or 396 ; the speech Against Lochites (xx) in 394 ; the Trapezitikos 
 (xvii) and Aeginetikos (xix) in the second half of 394 or early 
 
 in 393- 
 
 In his later writings Isokrates nowhere recognises this phase 
 of his own activity. He speaks with contempt of those who 
 write for the law-courts, and emphatically claims it as his own ij 
 merit that he chose nobler themes. It may have been partly '* 
 the tone of such passages which emboldened his adopted son 
 Aphareus to assert that Isokrates had never written a forensic 
 speech. This statement is decisively rejected by Dionysios, 
 
pp. 1 1 6, 117] NOTES.

 who concludes, on the authority of Kephisodoros, the orator's 
 pupil, that Isokrates wrote a certain number of such speeches, 
 though not nearly so many as Aristotle had reported. The 
 modern hypothesis that Isokrates composed the extant forensic 
 orations merely as exercises (/AcXerai), not for real causes, is 
 another attempt to explain his later tone. But these later ut- 
 terances merely mean that Isokrates regarded his former work 
 for the law-courts as an unworthy accident of his early life, 
 previous to the beginning of his true career. Nowhere, be it 
 observed, does he deny that he had written for the courts, or 
 that, to use his own phrase, he had been a doll-maker before he 
 became a Pheidias. He only says that his choice, his real calling, 
 lay in another direction. — Attic Orators, i. 7 f. 
 
 The Aeginetikos is so called because the case to which it re- 
 fers was tried in Aegina, — probably, to judge from the indications 
 in §§ 18 — 20 and 36, at the end of 394 or early in 393 b.c. 
 Thrasylochos, a citizen of Siphnos, one of the Kyklades, had 
 at his death left his property to the speaker, whom he had pre- 
 viously adopted as his son. The speaker's right to the inherit- 
 ance is disputed by a daughter of the testator ; and the speech 
 is in answer to her claim (eTrtSt/cao-ta). The case is tried at 
 Aegina, where the speaker had settled (KaroiKio-a/Aci/os, § 24) 
 before his death. — Att. Or. 11. 217. 
 
 The narrative, of which the following passage is the chief 
 part, is briefly as follows. The speaker's object is to show that 
 the will is not only genuine, but also just and reasonable, since 
 his own conduct towards the testator Thrasylochos had established 
 a strong claim. In the first place he had saved the very property 
 now in question. Thrasylochos and his brother SopoUs, citizens 
 of Siphnos, had, for security, placed the greater part of their 
 fortune in the neighbouring island of Paros. Paros was suddenly 
 seized by a party of democratic exiles, Parians and Siphnians, 
 led by one Pasinos. At the risk of his life, the speaker sailed by 
 night to Paros, and carried the endangered property back to 
 Siphnos. Presently the democratic masters of Paros attacked 
 and took Siphnos itself. The speaker — whose family belonged 
 to the aristocracy of the island, and had even given it kings- 
 was among those who were forced to fly. He took with him, not 
 only his own mother and sister, but Thrasylochos, who was then

 in weak health. The speaker and his family wished to remain 
 at Melos. But Thrasylochos entreated them to accompany him 
 to Troezen ; and, though they knew the place to be unhealthy, 
 they consented. The speaker's sister and mother died soon after 
 their arrival. He afterwards nursed Thrasylochos through a long 
 and distressing illness in Aegina. During that illness the half 
 sister of Thrasylochos, who now claims his property, never once 
 visited him ; nor, on his death, did she attend his funeral (§§ i6 — 
 
 33)- 
 
 §§ 18—27. 
 
 § 18. Kttt Trepi ^ev tQ>v 7raXaiwv...£xeiv] 'The whole stOry of 
 the past would be long to tell : when, however, Pasinos seized

 island to be more secure than any other '. twv TraXatwv : the early

 set up by Peisander during the rule of the Four Hundred was 
 deposed by Theramenes, who established a democracy in its 
 place (Grote viii. 159). The oligarchy was doubtless restored in 
 Paros, as elsewhere, after the final defeat of Athens in 405 B.C. 
 From § 36 of this speech it is clear that the speaker belonged 
 to the oligarchic party, and therefore that the exiles before whom 
 he fled were democratic. The democratic revolution, led by the 
 otherwise unknown Pasinos, may have been encouraged by the 
 blow dealt to Sparta — and at the same time to oligarchy through- 
 out Hellas — by the victory of Konon at Knidos in the autumn

 XIII. AAEHANAPfil. [Epist. ix.]— In writing to Philip 
 of Macedon, who was not then at open war with Athens, Iso- 
 krates takes the opportunity of enclosing a letter to the young 
 Alexander. Philip was in Thrace or the Chersonese from May, 
 342 B.C., to the latter part of 339 B.C.; and, at some time after 
 his departure, appointed Alexander his regent in Macedonia. 
 But, when this letter was written, that arrangement had not yet 
 been made. Alexander, a boy of fourteen, is busy with his 
 studies. It was probably in this very year (342 B.C.) that Alex- 
 ander began to receive the lessons of Aristotle. 
 
 § I. Trpos Tov Trarepa. . .ypd<f>oiv] referring, probably, to Epist. 11. 
 of the extant series, in which Isokr. remonstrates with Philip for 
 recklessly exposing his life, and urges him to intervene in the 
 affairs of Athens with the same prudence which he had just shown 
 (342 B.C.) in constituting the Thessalian tetrarchy : see At^ic

 {Antid. § 271, note, p. 254), in the sense that the precise circum- 
 stances of a future situation cannot be foreseen : but that the 
 study of political questions (u7ro0ecreis...7repi twv kolvwv 7rpayp,aTwv, 
 i/?. § 276, p. 86) will form intelligent opinion, S6$a. He held, 
 further, that he who cultivates the art of persuasion will cultivate 
 aperr/, moral excellence, as a means to that end, id. § 278. And 
 so here he claims for his TratSeta that, through it, Alexander (i) 
 is already able to form intelligent conjecture, S6$a, about the 
 future : (2) that he will kno7e', when the time comes, the prin- 
 ciples of government — iTnaTtjaei hinting that he would be at no 
 disadvantage as compared to the pupils of those who profess to 
 impart absolute IrrKTrrniy}, Adv. Soph. § 8, p. 81 : (3) that he will 
 be able to distinguish between justice and injustice, merit and

 XIV. $IAinnni. [Epist. m.]— A letter written to Philip 
 of Macedon in 338 B.C., some time after the battle of Chaeroneia, 
 when Isokrates had completed his ninety-eighth year. It is thus 
 the latest of all his extant writings. 
 
 The genuineness of the Third Letter has been doubted (as by 
 Prof. E. Curtius Hist. Gr. v. 459) : but there seems to be no 
 ground, internal or external, for doubting it, except the difficulty of 
 reconciling it with the tradition that Isokrates committed suicide on 
 learning the tidings of Chaeroneia. [Dionys. Z>^/j'(?^/'. i. ; Paus. i. 18.

 8; Philostr. Vit Sophist. 1. 17. 4: Lucian (?) MaKpoj8tot§ 23 : (Plut.) 
 Vit. Isocr. § 14: Anon. Biogr.]. According to the usual account, 
 he was in the palaestra of Hippokrates at Athens when he heard 
 the news of the fatal defeat. He repeated three verses of Euripi- 
 des — verses commemorating three aliens who had been conquerors 
 of Greeks, — Danaos, Pelops, Kadmos — and four days afterwards, 
 on the burial-day of those who fell at Chaeroneia, he died of 
 voluntary starvation. Undoubtedly Isokrates regretted the struggle 
 between Athens and Philip : but the result of the struggle was 
 that the idea of his life — a Panhellenic war against the barbarian — 
 had been made possible. The conduct of Philip to Athens after 
 Chaeroneia was studiously temperate and conciliatory ; there was 
 nothing in it to estrange Isokrates from his ideal leader, who, 
 having struck one necessary blow, was now bent on healing the 
 discords of Greece. It would be more easy to conceive that 
 Isokrates should have destroyed himself because he saw Athens 
 still resolved to resist, and could not support the anguish of a 
 divided loyalty. But, to my mind, the Letter itself leaves little 
 room for doubting that it was written after the conclusion of the 
 peace between Philip and Athens, and was taken to Philip by 
 Antipater on his return : see §§ i, 2. Cp. Schafer, Demosth. u. 
 seine Zeit, iii. 25. — Attic Orators, 11. 31 f. : 255, 7iote i. 
 
 § I. SuXixOrjv Kot Trpos 'AvTtVaTpov] Demades, who had been 
 taken prisoner at Chaeroneia, was sent by Philip to Athens as the 
 bearer of proposals for peace. The Athenian captives were to be 
 restored : Oropos was to be transferred from Thebes to Athens. 
 On the other hand, Athens was required to recognise Philip as 
 the military head of Greece. On receiving this message, the 
 Athenian Ekklesia sent an embassy to Philip, who was then 
 at Thebes. Among the envoys were Demades, Phokion and 
 Aeschines. They were hospitably entertained by Philip, and 
 returned to Athens with the message that Philip released the 
 prisoners without ransom, and would presently send, for interment 
 at Athens, the remains of those who had fallen at Chaeroneia. 
 
 Antipater, the young Alexander, and probably Alkimachos, 
 were the envoys who escorted these relics to Athens. By them 
 the conditions of peace were formally proposed to the Senate 
 and the Ekklesia. Demades then drew up a i/zTfc^tcr/xa by which 
 the treaty — known as ' the Peace of Demades ' — was finally

 ISAEOS.

 Style. Isaeos has a twofold interest. He is the earliest Attic 
 master — not, indeed, of forensic rhetoric — but of strict forensic 
 argument. He also represents the final period of transition in 
 the history of Attic oratory, the transition from the studied 
 * plainness ' (a'c^e'Xeia) of the Lysian school to the open triumph of 
 that technical mastery (SetvoV?;?) which reached its summit in 
 Demosthenes. We have seen that the peculiar significance of 
 
322 SELECTIONS. [Isaeos 
 
 Isokrates is rather for literary rhetoric than for oratory. With 
 Isaeos, we return to the development of practical oratory : and 
 his place in this must be determined, first, by his relation to his 
 predecessor Lysias, secondly by his relation to Demosthenes. 
 
 Isaeos closely resembles Lysias in diction (A.e^i?) : the qualities 
 of purity, conciseness, clearness, simplicity, vividness (ivdpyeia) 
 are common to both. In composition (o-w^ecrts), on the other 
 hand, there is a marked difference. Lysias broke through the 
 rigid monotony of the earlier periodic style, replacing it by 
 one which was more flexible and various : yet, though his compo- 
 sition as a whole has ease and variety, his love of antithesis 
 frequently gives too much stiffness and uniformity to the structure 
 of his periods themselves. Isaeos is exempt from this excessive 
 love of antithesis ; but, on the whole, his composition is distin- 
 guished from that of Lysias mainly by the stamp of conscious art. 
 In reading him we have a continual sense of trained and confident 
 skill. The more open and vigorous character of this art, as com- 
 pared with that of Lysias, is illustrated by the freedom with which 
 Isaeos employs the animated 'figures of thought' (or^yuara 
 Siai/otas), especially the rhetorical question (e.g. or. viii. § 28, 
 p. 143). This does not deprive Isaeos of ethical persuasive- 
 ness. Reasoned remonstrance, vigorous contention, just indigna- 
 tion, are powerfully expressed : it is only in the delineation of 
 the ingenuous youth or the plain citizen that he yields to the 
 veiled subtlety of Lysias. In the treatment of subject-matter the 
 contrast gains strength. Lysias is unusually content with the 
 simple four-fold partition, — Trpooijxiov, Si-)]yr]cn<;, Trto-Tcts, cTTt'Aoyos. 
 Isaeos interweaves narrative and proof, managing his complex 
 material with manifold tactics, — doing everything with art, but 
 nothing by rule. Lysias seldom attempts more than a rhetorical 
 or sketchy nroof : Isaeos elaborates a complete logical proof: as 
 Dionysios says, Lysias speaks Kar iv6vfxr)ij.a, but Isaeos, koI Kar 
 iTrix^iprjfxa [Atiic Orators, 11. 289). 
 
 'The oratorical power' (Scivorrjs) 'of Demosthenes', says the 
 same critic, ' took its seeds and beginnings {ra o-Trep/xara koX rcis 
 apxas, Isae. 20) from Isaeos'. This is true in the limited sense 
 that Demosthenes derived important hints from Isaeos (i) in 
 versatile arrangement of material, (2) in elaboration of system- 
 atic proof, (3) more generally, in that art of close and strenuous

 conflict, the art of grappling with the adversary's case point by- 
 point, which the Greek critics mean by dywvi^eo-^ai, to Ivaywviov. 
 The two speeches of Demosthenes against Aphobos (363 b. c), 
 and the two against Onetor (362 B.C.), were written at the 
 time when their author {act. 22 or 23) was probably most under 
 the influence of Isaeos. The two speeches against Onetor — 
 which exhibit the influence in its most mature form — are espe- 
 cially Isaean in this, that they end, not with an ordinary perora- 
 tion, but with a keen argument swiftly thrust home (Dem. Adv. 
 Onet. I. §§ 37 — 1<^ : 11. §§ 10 — 14). On the other hand these 
 earUest speeches of Demosthenes have a thoroughly original 
 stamp. The Hnk between Isaeos and Demosthenes is chiefly 
 technical, depending on the essential continuity of Attic prose 
 expression as an art. It is also, in a narrower sense, personal, 
 so far as a vigorous intensity of logic was common to the intel- 
 lectual character of both. But that is all. The great achieve- 
 ments of Demosthenes are his own : so, too, the masterpieces of 
 Isaeos, in their own kind, bear a distinctive stamp of keen ability 
 and consummate art. — Cp. A^^ic Orators, 11. 273 — 310. 
 
 On the Works of Isaeos generally, ib. 11. 311 — 368. The 
 striking characteristic of the extant twelve speeches is the con- 
 trast between monotony of subject and versatility of tone : the 
 form has its affinities at once with earlier and with later style. 
 Of the twelve, the three typical speeches are (i) the fifth, On the 
 Estate of Dikaeogenes — Lysian in the graceful and persuasive 
 management of narrative : (2) the eleventh. On the Estate of 
 Hagnias — Demosthenic in its unity of impulse and its victorious 
 mastery of technical resource : (3) the eighth, On the Estate of 
 Kiron — distinctively Isaean in its mediation between these types. 
 
 It is from these that the following extracts have been taken :

 childless, shared among them two-thirds of his estate. The other 
 third went to his first cousin, Dikaeogenes III., son of his uncle 
 PFOxenos, in accordance with a will produced by Proxenos, in 
 which the deceased declared Dikaeogenes III. to be his adopted 
 son, and heir to one-third of his estate (vlos Trot-f^ros cttI TptVw /xcpet 
 T)7? ovaLw;, § 6). 
 
 Twelve years later (§ 7), Dikaeogenes III. alleged that this 
 first will was invalid. Under a second will, he said, he was heir, 
 not to a third only, but to the whole of the estate. He gained his 
 cause. The sisters of the testator were deprived of their shares 
 and the whole was transferred to Dikaeogenes III. 
 
 Ten years more elapsed (§ 35). Meanwhile the nephews of 
 the testator had grown up. They now resolved to seek redress 
 for their mothers and themselves. They began by bringing an 
 action against one Lykon, who had been called by Dikaeogenes 
 III. as a witness to the second will. Lykon was convicted of 
 perjury. 
 
 The state of things was now this : — Dikaeogenes III. had 
 himself declared the first will — which gave him one-third — to be 
 invalid. The judges of Lykon had declared the second will — 
 which gave him all — to be false. Accordingly, the nephews (with 
 the exception of Menexenos II., who had deserted their cause) 
 now sued Dikaeogenes III. for the whole estate. One Leochares 
 interposed a protest (Siaftaprvpia) that their claim was inadmissible. 
 They indicted Leochares for perjury. Leochares was certain to be 
 convicted. Dikaeogenes III. therefore made a compromise. He 
 was to keep his original one-third, and leave his adversaries in 
 secure possession of the other two-thirds. Leochares and Mnesi- 
 ptolemos became his sureties for the performance of this engage- 
 ment. 
 
 Leochares is now sued (by an lyyvr]<i Slkt]) to discharge his 
 liability as surety, since his principal Dikaeogenes III. has made 
 default. The speaker, son of Polyaratos (§ 5), is one of the 
 nephews of the testator, and is supported by his first cousin 
 Kephisodotos (§ 2). — Af/ic Orators, 11. 349. 
 
 The date is probably 390 B.C., — the sea-fight off Knidos men- 
 tioned in §§ 6, 42 being that of 412 B.C. (Thuc. viii. 42), not the 
 more famous battle of 394 B.C. This question has been fully 
 examined in the Attic Orators, 11. 350 f.

 The speaker first defines his case by quoting his own affidavit 
 (d.vT(DfJio<Tia, § i). He then refers to a register {airoy pac^rj) of the 
 property left by his uncle, to prove that Dikaeogenes HI. has not 
 refunded the due amount, and that Leochares has therefore not 
 discharged his suretyship (ttJv efeyywrjv ovk aTrc'SwKci'), §§ i — 4. The 
 facts, of which an outline has been given above, are then narrated 
 in the following passage, §§ 7 — 24. 
 
 §7. cTTctST/ cm/xavTo, K.T.X] 'When they had divided the 
 estate, after taking oaths not to transgress the terms of the agree- 
 ment, each party remained for twelve years in possession of the 
 share assigned to him'. This refers to i\\e Jirst will (412 b.c), 
 under which Dikaeogenes III., as adopted son of the testator, 
 Dikaeogenes II., received o?ie third of the estate. The other two 
 thirds were shared between the four sisters of the testator, repre- 
 sented by their respective husbands, — viz. Polyaratos (father of 
 the speaker), Demokles, Kephisophon, Theopompos. — kvei^avro :

 the years 412 — 400 b.c, though there were short periods during 
 which the sittings of the law-courts were suspended by war or 
 internal trouble, yet there were also longer periods during which 
 an action might have been brought. Cp. Thuc. vi. 91, where 
 Alkibiades, urging the Spartans to occupy Dekeleia, predicts 
 that one of the results will be to stop the Athenian revenue 
 from the law-courts (ocra airo StKao-Tr^pitov vvv (o(j>eXovi>Tai, — alluding 
 to court-fees, Trprraveia, and to fines or confiscations). The pre- 
 diction was fulfilled, since, as Thuc. vii. 28 says, all the citizens 
 were required for military duty. This interruption fell within 
 the period ueferred to here (412 — 400 b.c). Cp. [Dem.] or. xlv.

 childless Athenian citizen could, either during his life or by testa- 
 ment, adopt any Athenian citizen as his son and heir. Permission 
 to execute a will is said to have been first given to Athenian 
 citizens by the laws of Solon, but it was expressly restricted to 
 those citizens who had no direct male descendants. The faculty 
 of adoption was the germ of testamentary power, and was in- 
 tended primarily to meet a case in which the head of a house 
 left behind him, at his decease, no one duly qualified by nearness 
 of blood to offer the sacrifices at the hearth and the grave. In 
 the Hindoo system of succession the religious aspect of adoption 
 is still the foremost one : (see the Tagore Law Lectures for 1870, 
 Lect. IX. On the Rite of Adoption, pp. 208 f., by Mr Herbert 
 Cowell). The Roman will of Cicero's time was already a true 
 testament. The Athenian SiaO-qK-r] belongs to an intermediate 
 stage. While the religious continuity of the family is still nomi- 
 nally the first principle, the main object in practice is to enlarge 
 the childless testator's choice of heirs. — Cp. Maine, Ancient Law,

 II. nEPI TOY ArNIOY KAHPOY. [Or. xi.]— 'On the 
 Estate of Hagnias'. — Theopompos, the speaker and defendant, 
 possesses the estate of Hagnias. Half of this estate is claimed 
 from Theopompos on behalf of his own nephew, the son of Stra- 
 tokles. The form of the prosecution is an Information for mal- 
 t7'eatinent (eto-ayyeXta KaKojo-ecos) ; the son of Stratokles being con- 
 sidered as an orphan whom his uncle, Theopompos, has wronged. 
 The date is 359 B.C. — Attic Orators^ 11. 354 — 8. 
 
 Theopompos had already, under a legal decision, taken this 
 same estate away from Phylomache II. (see the stemma), daughter 
 of his own second cousin Eubulides 11. 
 
 The essential points are these : — (i) Theopompos and Hagnias 
 were the sons of aves/ztot, first-cousins, and were therefore second- 
 cousins to each other : (2) Eubulides II., father of Phylomache II., 
 was^fr^Z-cousin of Hagnias. 
 
 §§ I— 19- 
 
 Theopompos begins by reading the laws which regulate the 
 succession of collateral kinsfolk to an estate; and shows that, 
 by these, his nephew, the son of Stratokles, is excluded. There is 
 no reason to suppose that the 7rpooLp.Lov is lost. The ninth ora-

 abruptness. 
 
 §§ I — 2. 8ta TavO\..K\'r}povoijLl.av\ 'I have read you the laws, 
 because the plaintiff contends that, under the first of them, the 
 boy [the son of Stratokles] is entitled to half the estate ; but this 
 is untrue. For Hagnias was not our brother \riixiv, Theopompos 
 himself and the other second-cousins of Hagnias, § 10]; but the 
 law, speaking of a brother's property, has given the inheritance — 
 
 [i) first, to brothers, being sons of the same father, and the 
 children of such brothers ; this is the first degree of kinship to the 
 deceased : but failing these, 
 
 (2) secondly, the law calls to the succession sisters by the same 
 father, and their children : failing these, 
 
 (3) in the third degree {rpircd yevei) it gives the preference to 
 first cousins (avei/fiois) on the father's side, continuing it to their 
 children (f^^XP'- o.^^i^i-'^v Trat'Swi/ = /a^XP' dveij/LaSwv). 
 
 (4) Failing these also, the law reverts to the direct line [cis 
 TO yeVos, the direct lineage on the maternal side, as opp. to col- 
 lateral kinship on the paternal] and gives the ownership of the 
 property [Troiei Kvptous avrwv, sc. t(^v xp^'j/^arwi'] to the kinsmen of 
 the deceased on the mother's side, under the same rules by which, 
 in the first instance {li "PX^^), it called the paternal kinsfolk to the 
 inheritance '. 
 
 The gist of the whole argument is that Theopompos, being the 
 son of a first-cousi7i (dveif/iov TraT?) is, under provision {3), in the 
 succession on the paternal side, while his nephew, being the son 
 of a second-cousin, is out of it.

 less, of course, was his nephew, the son of Stratokles. Phylo- 
 mache, as daughter of a paternal first-cousin of Hagnias, had 
 a better claim than any living relative. If Phylomache had died, 
 then the next heir would have been Glaukon, who would have

 III. nEPI TOY KIPONOS KAHPOY. [Or. viii.] ' On the 
 Estate of Kiron '. — Kiron married his first-cousin, by whom he 
 had one daughter. This daughter was married, first, to Nausi- 
 menes ; secondly, to another husband by whom she had two sons, 
 of whom the eldest is the speaker. 
 
 After the death of his first wife, Kiron married the sister of 
 one Diokles, and had by her two sons, both of whom died youn'g. 
 
 At the death of Kiron, his estate was claimed by his daughter's 
 eldest son. But the son of Kiron's brother, instigated by Diokles, 
 set up a counter-claim on two distinct grounds : i. That Kiron's 
 grandson is illegitimate : 2. That, supposing him legitimate, a 
 brother's son has a better claim than a daughter's son. 
 
 This spe^h is the defendant's answer. 
 
 The only indication of the date is that the speaker and his 
 brother were born after the archonship of Eukleides, 01. 94. 2, 
 403 B.C. (§ 43, /xer' ^vKX.f.L^rjv yap ap^ovTa yeyovafxev). The speech 
 cannot, then, be put before 383 B.C. On the other hand, the 
 speaker's plea of 'utter inexperience' (§ 5) implies youthfulness. 
 Now, if he was a young man, the date cannot be much below 
 383, since otherwise it would have been superfluous for him to 
 tell the judges that he was born after 403. The date is probably 
 about 375 B.C. — Attic Orators, 11. 327 f.

 property of others, but also hope by their own assertions to 
 abolish the privileges which the laws confer': i.e. not only does 
 the claimant seek to deprive me of property which in fact 
 is mine, but he also mis-states the law on the subject. The 
 first clause refers to the claimant's statement that the speaker's 
 mother was not the legitimate daughter of Kiron : the second^ to 
 his statement that a brother's son inherits before a daughter's

 §§ 31 — TyT^^ — a passage which deserves to be placed beside this of 
 Isaeos : — ' The slave, to whom the prosecutors had doubtless 
 promised freedom, and whose release from agony likewise de- 
 pended upon them, was probably induced to calumniate me on 
 both grounds — in the hope of winning his freedom, and in the 
 desire of deliverance from anguish at the moment. Now I 
 fancy yoni all know this, — that the party in whose hands the 
 chief conduct of the examination rests have the exaniined on their 
 side, and ready to say anything that will please them : for in the 
 torturers is the hope of the tortured, especially if the slandered 
 persons happen not to be present. Had it been I who gave the 
 order to rack the slave as speaking falsely, that very threat would 
 probably have deterred him from bearing false witness against me. 
 As it was, the prosecutors were at once presidents of the inquisi- 
 tion and protectors of their own interest. So long, therefore, as the 
 slave felt that his prospects in slandering me were hopeful, he was

THE ATTIC ORATORS 
 
 FROM ANTIPHON TO ISAEOS, 
 By R. C. J ebb, M.A., LL.D., Edin. 
 
 IN TWO VOLUMES. 8vo. 2z,s. 
 
 ' In the plan of Mr Jebb's volumes a short but most careful bio- 
 graphy of each orator precedes the chapters in which he treats of their 
 style and examines the works which bear their name. These memoirs 
 are among the most interesting portions of the work, and have often 
 a special value as throwing a light not merely fresh but striking on 
 the history of the time. Nothing can be more delightful than the 
 pages in which Mr Jebb dwells on the glories of Athenian workman- 
 ship so long as, in his ovv^n phrase, the life of society and of the state 
 ran in the same channel, and on the decay which passed over it so 
 soon as the streams diverged.... The charm of Mr Jebb's pages has 
 tempted us already to indulge in large quotation ; from the glowing 
 chapter which he devotes to the matured civil eloquence of Athens it 
 is difficult indeed to resist the temptation of quoting far more largely. 
 Throughout, the great orator stands before us, mighty because clothed 
 in the armour of righteousness, unapproachable in the majesty of his 
 art because resting on the strong foundation of truth, and victorious 
 over his great rival from the fearlessness imparted by absolute sincerity 
 of purpose. ...Of the revival which shed its glory on the Rome of Hor- 
 tensius and Cicero we must not say more than that it is treated by Mr 
 Jebb with the same wealth of learning and the same refinement of 
 taste which impart to his work as a whole a singular and delightful 
 charm,' — Ediiibii7-gh Review. 
 
 ' Mr Jebb's scholarly work possesses an interest which will extend 
 beyond the circle to which it seems at first to be exclusively addressed. 
 Scholarship is daily and yearly enlarging its borders, and single 
 authors are more and more read in the light of their contemporaries 
 and predecessors. A work which sums up the characteristics of the 
 earlier orators throws valuable light at once on the general progress of 
 letters, on the individual growth of the Greek tongue, and on the 
 general history of the most interesting group of communities in the 
 ancient world. The point of view chosen by Mr Jebb has been wisely 
 chosen and firmly maintained. Avoiding the extremes of a dry accu- 
 mulation of facts and scraps on the one hand, and of mere critical 
 generalities on the other, he has brought together a select body of 
 matter which cannot fail to interest in itself, while having also a 
 distinct bearing on the comparative history of literature.... By the aid 
 of Mr Jebb's volumes, together with the Greek text, young scholars 
 
may lay a substantial foundation for an intimate knowledge, not only 
 of the springs of Greek oratory, but of Greek prose in general. To 
 the preparation of the chronological tables which accompany the work 
 Mr J ebb has devoted much independent and original research.... Such 
 a work will be indispensable to the classical student, and acceptable to 
 the general reader.' — Times. 
 
 'The subject is of universal interest.... The scientific treatment of 
 the lives is, on the whole, as good as the artistic, and the latest results 
 of historical research are judiciously utilized. The conditions which 
 influenced the representative orators, and the influence which they 
 themselves exercised on affairs and individuals, are so well indicated 
 as to make these essays welcome contributions to scientific history.... 
 No pains have been spared in facilitating the use of the two handsome 
 volumes as books of reference, as witness a copious table of contents, 
 marginal headings, a register of orations and letters, a good index, and 
 a table of annals containing the results of new and original studies in 
 chronology.... We would in conclusion assure our readers that Prof. 
 Jebb has clearly not addressed himself only to classical students, but 
 offers much that is attractive and suggestive to any person of moderate 
 taste and culture.' — Athenceum. 
 
 ' The book before us is the more welcome as the important subject 
 with which it deals has not yet met with a comprehensive treatment 
 at the hands of any English scholar.... On taking up the book we were 
 prepared for much delicate insight into the varieties of style, and much 
 brilliant handling of the Greek originals, and we were not disappointed. 
 The work is that of a scholar with a rare appreciation of language and 
 a noble enthusiasm for Greek.... His attitude is as much that of the 
 modern literary critic as of the professional scholar. And his literary 
 gifts are such as entirely to justify his adopting this point of view.... 
 His native feehng for the beauties of Greek literature is so keen that 
 he never writes better than when he is following its unassisted light. 
 He has produced a book which shows quite a singular and exceptional 
 power of appreciating and carefully analysing the form of Greek 
 literature, and which will, we have no doubt, prove a powerful aid to 
 the study of the Greek orators among English scholars. It is by no 
 means creditable to English scholarship that the reading of Lysias 
 and Isokrates has almost entirely dropped out of our school course. 
 A careful perusal of Mr Jebb's work will probably convince those who 
 have the charge of classical education in England of their mistake in 
 allowing this state of things to continue, and will stimulate them to 
 alter it.' — Prrfpssor Nettleship in MacmillaiCs Magazine. 
 
 ' It will not be Mr Jebb's fault, if, with all the help that these 
 volumes give, the earlier Attic orators are not more studied in 
 England. ...To the scholar, who must know something more than the 
 choice examples of a literature, Mr Jebb's book will prove a valuable — 
 we had almost said a necessary — acquisition.' — Guardian. 
 
 * No more solid proof of the enlarged scope of classical scholarship 
 in this country has appeared within the last score of years than this 
 essay of a m.ost competent scholar to write the history of Greek 
 oratory.... He has apparently not overlooked any material criticism 
 advanced by other writers, and it is impossible not to be impressed 
 with a sense of the valuable service he has rendered in the field of 
 
classical literature which he has selected for illustration, and of the 
 access of light, knowledge, and familiarity with the ancient models of 
 oratory for which his readers are indebted to this lucid and well- 
 arranged survey,' — Saturday Review (first notice). 
 
 'The chapters which treat of Lycurgus, Hypereides, yEschines and 
 Demosthenes, though necessarily sketchy, are also signally graphic. 
 Any one who refers to the notices of these orators, certainly the least 
 known of them, in the pages of Donaldson's continuation of Miiller's 
 History of Greek Literature, will appreciate the greater fulness, detail, 
 and impression of portraiture in Mr Jebb's history.. ..A remarkable 
 book, and one that is likely to become a standard work.' — Saturday 
 Review (second notice). 
 
 * British scholarship can still relish, as a question of taste and 
 literature, the debate which sprang up in Augustan Rome, of Atticism 
 against Asianism....This keen and fruitful debate, with its decision in 
 harmony with our own most genuine convictions, is the starting point 
 selected by Professor Jebb in his splendid work on " The Attic Ora- 
 tors."... Of this rich magazine Prof. Jebb has made admirable use, 
 conferring on us the much needed resume of Attic oratory in a forni 
 as complete and round as anything we have on the kindred subject of 
 Attic poetry.' — New York Nation. 
 
 ' Of Professor Jebb's mastery of the Greek language it is super- 
 fluous to speak — in that he is well known to have few living Enghsh 
 rivals ; but he possesses also in a high degree a quality which does 
 not always go with profound scholarship — a fine literary taste, and a 
 faculty which does not always accompany taste — that of lucid exposi- 
 tion and compact and logical arrangement. Hence the attentive 
 reader of these two volumes rises from their perusal, not only instructed 
 by Professor Jebb's detailed criticisms of the writers whom he dis- 
 cusses, but in full possession of his historical idea. He teels, as the 
 author intends that he should, that he has been enabled not merely to 
 grasp the respective Ihiai of a series of Attic orators, but also to 
 understand the gradual growth of Attic oratory and its relation to the 
 growth of Attic prose. We are able to follow in his pages, and with a 
 full comprehension of the cause and manner of each step in the 
 process, the majestic development of the most perfect organ of human 
 thought that the world has ever seen.' — Pall Mall Gazette. 
 
 -•&' 
 
 ' We have no other work in our language treating so fully of the 
 Attic orators. Professor Jebb has collected a large mass of valuable 
 material.... The book is invaluable for those who wish to study the 
 Attic orators. It is also pervaded by a fine tone, an earnest, pure, 
 and noble disposition, and a love of what is really good.' — Scotsman. 
 
 ' Professor Jebb's masterly account of these "Attic orators" deals 
 with them chiefly from the literary side.... The fullest knowledge is 
 fortunately united in him with great power of explanation and arrange- 
 ment, and with that ripe taste which should always be, yet seldom is, 
 the result of a classical education.... One of the very best of English 
 works upon ancient literature.' — Glasgow Herald. 
 
 ' Professor Jebb's work on the first five of the famous Ten Attic 
 Orators will be a welcome gift to classical students, but not to these 
 alone.... The most keen and flexible weapon that was ever at the 
 
service of an orator was no immediate and spontaneous product of a 
 kindly nature, springing full-armed from the head of Zeus.... To watch 
 how it gradually assumed its spring and its keenness is one of the 
 most welcome tasks of the scholar ; but even those whose interests in 
 literature are more general and less specific can hardly fail to take an 
 interest in the process as its various stages are pointed out to them by 
 the eloquence and unerring insight of a guide like Professor Jebb. 
 The development of Attic prose is of especial importance to the 
 student of the Greek language, but the value and attractiveness of its 
 study is by no means confined to him. Thanks to the translations 
 freely interspersed, which are in accuracy and in grace alike all that 
 was to be expected from Professor Jebb — higher praise we would give 
 them if we knew how to do so — the English reader can trace for 
 himself the gradual growth of a style of unrivalled perfection.... It is 
 needless to call the attention of professional students to these volumes 
 of Professor Jebb. They will learn for themselves to value the pains- 
 taking completeness, the minute accuracy, the finished scholarship 
 with which a worthy subject has been treated worthily.' — Manchester 
 Examiner and Times. 
 
 ' The English style is faultless, the translations from the Greek are 
 •thoroughly true and exquisitely worded, and the whole result admirably 
 represents the characteristics, not only of the individual orators who 
 are referred to, but also of the entire process of Athenian history from 
 the first to the last of them.... The "Attic Orators" is a book which 
 will at once delight and help the student, as well as prove an invalu- 
 able addition to the classical library of every reading man.' — Glasgow 
 News. 
 
 'A critical history of Greek prose composition, the development 
 whereof is intimately connected with that of Attic oratory, has long 
 been wanted by classical students, and will be welcome to all who 
 take an interest in the evolution of human thought and expression. 
 But apart from the antiquarian and philological interest of the subject, 
 Professor Jebb has treated it in such a catholic spirit, with so much 
 brilliance and tact, that he has succeeded in producing a standard 
 work on universal prose literature, which should be attentively perused 
 by modern students of rhetoric... We must congratulate Professor 
 Jebb on having achieved a brilliant success in a department of study 
 which has hitherto received little attention, notwithstanding its great 
 importance.' — Examiner.
