LYSIAS; C. CAREY (ED. ) - Lysias: Selected Speeches

Cambridge University Press, 1993. Softcover. ISBN: 0521269881. Creasing to wraps. Many Pencil notes to about 15 pages. Scholar's name to ffep (Bonnie Maclachlan [née Ward]). Ffep creased. Faint dampstaining to a couple of pages. ; Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics; 248 pages; The Greek writer Lysias is a fascinating source for the study of Athenian law, society and history in the late fifth century B.C. Six of his professional legal speeches are included in this new edition, both for their intrinsic interest and for the accessibility of their language. In his introduction, Dr. Carey discusses Lysias' life and place in the evolution of Greek prose style and in the development of Greek rhetoric. He approaches the speeches as attempts to secure a verdict favorable to the speaker and assesses how effectively the selection and deployment of arguments promote this end. He addresses textual issues and problems of Lysias' style and syntax, while focusing particularly on literary concerns: Lysias' use of rhetorical devices, his marshalling of fact and argument and his manipulation of contemporary values and prejudices..
