Produktbeschreibung
Hypereides, Athenian lawyer-politician, contemporary of Demosthenes, and one of the canonical Ten Attic Orators, was credited in antiquity with more than 70 speeches. All were lost until the late 19th century when six were recovered in Egypt, five of them forensic, which the author has translated.
Professor Whitehead has provided a new translation of the five surviving forensic speeches of the Athenian lawyer-politician Hypereides (390/89-322 BC). Hypereides' importance lies not only in his speeches, but also in his centrality in the political life of ancient Athens, as a contemporary of Demosthenes, and one of the canonical Ten Attic Orators. This book, which includes a general introduction and lavish historical and literary commentary, represents the first complete collection of Hypereides' works in any language.
