A Thankless People (Hdt. 5.91.2)
The Spartan call to arms against Athens in Hdt. 5.91.2 includes charges of falsification of oracles, lack of xenia, hubris, and, in particular, that the Athenians are “a thankless people” (δήμῳ ἀχαρίστῳ). That term is fraught with ideological implications more germane to the time of the work’s composition than to the time of the supposed event
Dicaearchus of Messana The Sources, Text and Translation
The methodology of this collection follows that established in the FHS&G edition of Theophrastean material beginning with a list of titles of works ascribed to Dicaearchus and continuing with texts relating to his life, writings, thought and influence. Almost without exception, the fundamental criterion for inclusion has been that Dicaearchus is named in the text. Those texts that deal with psychology 13–32 are arranged in such a way that varying…
Something to Do with Dionysus
In the Poetics, Aristotle draws a close connection between epic and tragedy, seeing tragedy largely as a development of the Homeric origins of Greek poetry into drama through a merging of the choral traditions of Dionysiac ritual with the mythic and poetic traditions of epic. In ancient times in tragedy at first the chorus alone performed the drama. Later Thespis invented one actor, in order to give the chorus a break, and Aeschylus a second and …
The Documents in the Attic Orators
BOOK REVIEWS/COMPTES RENDUS 177 slaves seem to be worn by non-slave characters. In particular, the popular “B” mask was used for non-slave roles in the Apulian, Paestan, and Sicilian traditions (201–203). Vases which likely illustrate scenes from comedies in the Attic tradition, however, invite no such slippage, even going so far as to provide characters both a slave mask and a label with a servile name (203). In the latter fourth century, moreov…

Writing Greek Law by Michael Gagarin
166 PHOENIX aware of this debate (248, n. 12; 309, n. 16), but her own contribution to this evolving field is limited. Her digression on temporal projections in Demosthenes, Aeschines, and Isocrates reveals a certain homogeneity in the selection of past events and figures favored for citation in these speakers, but acknowledges that there is also “considerable variation in their use and presentation of the past” (272). Also, the concluding sectio…
Influences on Peripatetic Rhetoric
Each paper explores the influences on different parts of Peripatetic rhetoric, its discussion of character, emotion, reason, and style, its relationships with other texts, including those of Theodectes and the Rhetorica ad Alexandrum, and its relationship with the oratory of the 4th century BC
Influences on Peripatetic Rhetoric
Aristotle and the Law Courts
In the Politics, Aristotle recognizes participation in law courts as an essential element in citizenship, yet there has been relatively little scholarship on how he sees this participation being realized. References to law courts are sprinkled widely through the Politics, Rhetoric, and Ethics, as well as the Athenaiôn politeia, where their importance is revealed most clearly. Ernest Barker took great pride in the English administration of law: if…

Demosthenes
Athens' Democratic Witnesses
W HILE DISCUSSING THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF HIS DISPUTE, a speaker in the Athenian popular courts will pause from time to time to direct that testimony be given, or read, that he is speaking the truth.l The witness testimony (marturia) then confirms what the speaker has already said himself-and probably for this reason is usually not recorded or even interpolated into the surviving text of the speech. But just what role did these witnesses play? There…
The Beginnings of Rhetorical Theory in Classical Greece
In this provocative new book, Edward Schiappa argues that rhetorical theory did not originate with the Sophists in the fifth century B.C.E., but developed nearly a century later. Closely examining the terminology of early rhetorical history, Schiappa not only revises the way we understand that history but also contends we must alter the way we read both the Sophists and Aristotle and Plato
The Litigious Athenian
Greek Law in Its Political Setting
This volume explores the way in which law integrated with other aspects of life in ancient Greece. The papers collected here reveal a number of different pathways between law and political, social, and economic life in Greek societies. Emanating from several scholarly traditions, they offer a range of contrasting but complementary insights rarely collected together. What emerges clearly is that law in Greece only takes on its full meaning in a br…

Sympheron, Dikaion and Nomoi in Deliberative Rhetoric
Athenian Identity and Civic Ideology
In Identity and Civic Ideology, Alan Boegehold and Adele Scafuro bring together a group of scholars who explore the nature and meaning of Athenian citizenship. Departing from the narrow perspective of constitutional historians and embracing sociological concerns as well, the range of topics attests to a broad vision of the concepts of citizenship and civic ideology in a society in which the boundary between public and private, sacred and secular,…

The Public and the Private in Aristotle's Political Philosophy
Aristotle offers a conception of the private and its relationship to the public that suggests a remedy to the limitations of liberalism today, according to Judith A. Swanson. In this fresh and lucid interpretation of Aristotle's political philosophy, Swanson challenges the dominant view that he regards the private as a mere precondition to the public. She argues, rather, that for Aristotle private activity develops virtue and is thus essential bo…
