This volume provides a commentary on the six surviving speeches of
the fifth-century BC Athenian orator Antiphon, all of which concern
homicide, together with a fragment of Antiphon's final speech at
his own trial for treason in 411 BC. The commentary discusses
grammatical, stylistic, textual, legal, rhetorical, historical and
other matters and focuses especially on Antiphon's argumentation
and forensic strategy: why he presents these arguments in this
particular way. The work includes a new Greek text which restores
some of the special qualities of Antiphon's style that
twentieth-century editors have edited out and a substantial
introduction to the life and work of Antiphon, the nature of
Athenian law and legal oratory and the style and textual tradition
of Antiphon.
