Excerpt from Antithesis in the Attic Orators From Antiphon to Isaeus: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, (Department or Greek) The Greeks were the first, so far as we know, to employ antithesis extensively; first to analyze it, and formulate the principles of its usage. Any scientific treatment of the figure must accordingly begin with them. The field of Attic eloquence has been chosen as being the most suitable for the study of the subject. And there is no better standard than antithesis for a comparative study of the rhetorical style of the several orators.

This book offers an edition of the third speech of the fourth-century BCE orator Isaeus. It contains a new Greek text, based on a full collation of the manuscript evidence, an English translation, an extensive introduction, and a detailed commentary on the textual, linguistic, legal, rhetorical, stylistic, and historical issues encountered in the speech. The book demonstrates the high level of oratorical skill possessed by the under-appreciated orator Isaeus, and casts light on some exceedingly complex aspects of Athenian family law and society in the fourth century. It is accessible to readers without knowledge of ancient Greek, and is essential reading for anyone interested in Attic oratory, rhetoric, and Athenian law.
