Guy Westwood

The Rhetoric of the Past in Demosthenes and Aeschines

Oratory, History, and Politics in Classical Athens

Buch

Offering an incisive analysis of all surviving public speeches of contemporaries and bitter rivals Demosthenes and Aeschines, this volume examines how democratic politicians in classical Athens created versions of the city's past to persuade mass decision-making audiences, cement their own authority, and compete for public endorsement.
