Series Statement:
Greek orators 4
Content:
Despite his poor reputation as a rhetorician among critics both ancient and modern, the four speeches attributed in MSS to Andocides, the second of the canon of ten Attic orators, are important examples of forensic and deliberative oratory and political invective from the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC. They also provide vital evidence for the development of Attic prose in this period and for Athenian legal processes, and are major historical sources. This edition, with notes keyed to the translation, contains the first commentary in English on the whole corpus of Andocides' work, making it accessible to scholars and students with or without Greek.
