  • Two Passages in Thuchydides

    Open AccessCecil Grayson, C H GraysonARTICLEThe Classical Quarterly1972

    This need not in itself be surprising if the speeches of Thucydides are, as many believe, fairly free compositions, but it is difficult to explain the immediate irrelevances of [P] in particular on any view of , if this is what Thucydides is claiming to give us (1. 22. 1).
