Book Synopsis Demosthenes, Against Meidias (oration 21) by : Demosthenes
Download or read book Demosthenes, Against Meidias (oration 21) written by Demosthenes and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demosthenes was punched in the face by Meidias in the theater at Athens in 348 B.C. His prosecution speech for this offence is one of the most intriguing texts in Greek literature. It tells the story of his long feud with Meidias and gives much valuable information about Athenian law and festivals, and about the concept of insolent behavior which the Greeks call hubris. This edition presents a larger number of manuscripts than earlier editors have used, and is supplemented with a double apparatus criticus giving testimonia and variant readings. It also provides a full introduction on historical, legal, literary, and textual matters, a complete translation of the speech, and a more detailed commentary than any previously published.

Book Synopsis Demosthenes: Against Meidias by : Demosthenes
Download or read book Demosthenes: Against Meidias written by Demosthenes and published by Bristol Classical Press. This book was released on 2002-09-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demosthenes was punched in the face by Meidias in the theatre at Athens in 348 BC. His prosecution - a masterpiece of Greek oratorical prose - is one of the most intriguing forensic speeches to survive. It not only details Demosthenes' personal feud with Meidias but, in passing, gives valuable information about Athenian law and festivals, and especially about the Greek concept of hubris (insolent behaviour). This edition, originally published in 1990, represents the latest scholarship on the text, collating a larger number of MSS than hitherto. It includes a very full introduction on historical, legal, literary and textual matters; a complete facing-page translation; and a detailed commentary.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Demosthenes by : Gunther Martin
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Demosthenes written by Gunther Martin and published by Oxford Handbooks. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a speechwriter, orator, and politician, Demosthenes captured, embodied, and shaped his time. He was a key player in Athens in the twilight of the city's independence, and is today a primary source for its history and society during that period. The Oxford Handbook of Demosthenes sets out to explore the many facets of his life, work, and time, giving particular weight to elucidating the settings and contexts of his activities, as well as some of the key themes dealt with in his speeches, and thereby illustrating the interplay and mutual influence between his rhetoric and the environment from which it emerged. The volume's thirty-five chapters are authored by experts in the field and offer both comprehensive coverage and an up-to-date reference point for the issues and problems encountered when approaching the speeches in particular: they not only showcase how Demosthenes' rhetoric was profoundly influenced by Athenian reality, but also explore its reception from Demosthenes' own day right up until the present and how his presentation of his world has subsequently shaped our view of it. The wide range of expertise and the different scholarly traditions represented are a vivid demonstration of the richness and diversity of current Demosthenic studies and the contribution the volume makes to enriching our knowledge of the life and work of one of the most prominent figures of ancient Greece will be of significance to a wide readership interested in Athenian history, society, rhetoric, politics, and law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oration of Demosthenes Against Meidias: Edited for Use in Schools and Colleges, With Introduction, Analysis, Notes and Index This edition is designed for the use of students generally, and is not quite so elementary in some respects as that of the late Mr Holmes. The text is compiled from the editions of Baiter and Sauppe, who are referred to as the Zurich editors, and Buttmann (Ed.5). For the notes I am very much indebted to Meier, Buttmann, Schaefer, C.R. Kennedy, and Holmes. Critical notes are given only on such points as have seemed specially important for the settlement of the text, or generally interesting and instructive with regard to textual criticism. If I have occasionally taken the part of advocatus diaboli as represented by the bully Meidias, it is not out of sympathy with the defendant, but because the self-assertion and exaggeration, and the intense vindictiveness against a private enemy evinced in the speech are calculated to prejudice modern taste against the orator. He tells us that for deciding an arbitration case in his favour, one Straton had been deprived of his rights as a citizen by illegal procedure on Meidias part some years before, and yet Demosthenes does not seem to have raised his voice against this persecution until he wanted by exciting pity for Straton to increase the chance of getting redress for his own comparatively trifling wrongs.
