Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of ten ancient Greek forensic orations, translated into English from the original Attic dialect with analytical commentary. Each speech is carefully chosen to reflect a different aspect of ancient Greek political and legal thought and practice. The orations are grouped into three major categories: those concerned with homicide, those concerned with impiety, and those concerned with political affairs. Within each category, the arrangement is primarily chronological, and the speeches, many of which were delivered in high-profile cases, are accompanied by extended discussions of the historical and cultural background. The orations collected here constitute a unique window into the thinking of the ancient Greeks on issues of law, morality, and justice. Together, they provide insights into the origins of Western legal and intellectual tradition, and they continue to be a goldmine for classicists and legal historians. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332974610_0
