Book Synopsis Dinarchus, Hyperides, and Lycurgus by :
Download or read book Dinarchus, Hyperides, and Lycurgus written by and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fifth volume in the Oratory of Classical Greece. This series presents all of the surviving speeches from the late fifth and fourth centuries B.C. in new translations prepared by classical scholars who are at the forefront of the discipline. These translations are especially designed for the needs and interests of today's undergraduates, Greekless scholars in other disciplines, and the general public. Classical oratory is an invaluable resource for the study of ancient Greek life and culture. The speeches offer evidence on Greek moral views, social and economic conditions, political and social ideology, law and legal procedure, and other aspects of Athenian culture that have been largely ignored: women and family life, slavery, and religion, to name just a few. This volume combines the surviving speeches of three orators who stand at the end of the classical period. Dinarchus was not an Athenian, but he was called on to write speeches in connection with a corruption scandal (the Harpalus affair) that put an end to the career of Demosthenes. His speeches thus raise many of the vital issues surrounding the Macedonian conquest of Athens and the final years of Athenian democracy. Hyperides was an important public figure who was involved in many of the events described by Dinarchus and Lycurgus. His speeches open a window into many interesting facets of Athenian life. Lycurgus was one of the leading politicians in Athens during the reign of Alexander the Great and put Athenian public finances on a more secure footing. He was also a deeply religious man, who tried to revive Athenian patriotism after the crushing defeat at Chaeronea.
Book Synopsis The Lycurgus Cup by : Joseph Thomas Rossettie
Download or read book The Lycurgus Cup written by Joseph Thomas Rossettie and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The LYCURGUS Cup is a literary fiction painted on the authentic historical tapestry of the Eastern Mediterranean in the year 400. It is an adventure story, but constructed around a number of theological problems of the day. The central character, Veritus, is a student from Corduba who has come to Ephesus to interview a powerful but dying Roman bureaucrat. Several attempts are made on his life, but why? By whom? He soon finds that he is embroiled in an undeclared war of theology. He becomes a pawn in this deadly game as he agrees to set a trap for the Capoderms, a group of intolerant "protectors of the faith." Instead of closing the trap, he finds himself betrayed and at the point of death in a wine cellar on the Sinai. There, during that night, he goes through a transformation, a personal Pentecost, during which he is given the Faith by the Holy Spirit. He emerges as a man of faith and is extricated from the hands of the evil Capoderms by a remarkable sequence of events.

Book Synopsis Plutarch's Politics by : Hugh Liebert
Download or read book Plutarch's Politics written by Hugh Liebert and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plutarch's Lives were once treasured. Today they are studied by classicists, known vaguely, if at all, by the educated public, and are virtually unknown to students of ancient political thought. The central claim of this book is that Plutarch shows how the political form of the city can satisfy an individual's desire for honor, even under the horizon of empire. Plutarch's argument turns on the difference between Sparta and Rome. Both cities stimulated their citizens' desire for honor, but Sparta remained a city by linking honor to what could be seen first-hand, whereas Rome became an empire by liberating honor from the shackles of the visible. Even under the rule of a distant power, however, allegiances and political actions tied to the visible world of the city remained. By resurrecting statesmen who thrived in autonomous cities, Plutarch hoped to rekindle some sense of the city's enduring appeal.
Book Synopsis In the Name of Lykourgos by : Miltiadis Michalopoulos
Download or read book In the Name of Lykourgos written by Miltiadis Michalopoulos and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2014-08-30 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of the 3rd century B.C. Sparta was a shadow of its glorious past. Politically and militarily weakened and with huge inner social problems, she seemed to have followed the fate of most contemporary city- states and fallen on the fringe of the political developments of her time. The 3rd century was a time when the great states and the Hellenistic empires were prominent. But contrary to the other city states, which compromised with the new political forces of their time, Sparta resisted stubbornly and tried to reclaim the hegemony of southern Greece. In this fight, Sparta showed unexpected vigor, even defying one of the most formidable powers of the time: Macedonia. The uneven collision that followed culminated tragically and painfully for Sparta at the Battle of Sellasia in 222BC. And still Sparta refused to compromise. After a while, she managed to recover and became once more a player on the international stage, not hesitating this time to challenge the most powerful state of the ancient world: Rome. This last Spartan twilight, the revolutionary movement that sparked it and the two ultimate turning points of her history [the battle of Sellasia and the siege of Sparta by the Romans] are analysed in this book with exhaustive bibliography and special emphasis on the military aspects of this epic fight. The original Greek edition of In the Name of Lykourgos received great critical acclaim and was named winner of the 2009 Lakedaimonian Prize of the Academy of Athens. It is here translated into English for the first time.

Download or read book Minor Attic Orators: Lycurgus. Dinarchus. Demades. Hyperides written by and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: V.I. ANTIPHON of Athens, born in 480 B.C., spent his prime in the great period of Athens but, disliking democracy was himself an ardent oligarch who with others set up a violent short-lived oligarchy in 411. The restored democracy executed him for treason. He had been a writer of speeches for other people involved in litigation. Of the fifteen surviving works three concern real murder-cases, the others being exercises in speech-craft consisting of three 'tetralogies' whereof each tetralogy comprises four skeleton speeches: accuser's; defendant's; accuser's reply; defendant's counter-reply. ANDOCIDES of Athens, born c440 B.C., disliked the extremes of both democracy and oligarchy. Involved in religious scandal in 415 B.C., he went into a money-making exile. After at least two efforts to return, he did so under the amnesty of 403. In 399 he was acquitted on a charge of profaning the 'Mysteries' and in 391-390 took part in an abortive peace embassy to Sparta. Extand speeches are: 'On his Return' (a plea on his second attempt); "On the Mysteries' (a self-defence); 'On the Peace with Sparta'. The speech 'Against Alcibiades' (the notorious politician) is suspect.
