How does one construct a role for oneself in the fourth-century
democratic city? This commentary on Isocrates' Antidosis , which
includes a full translation as well as an extensive introduction,
demonstrates that a rhetorician may do so by assuming roles that
subvert many of the conventions invoked by the genre - a
non-speaker in a rhetorical community, a rhetorician in a world
where rhetorical performativity has derogatory connotations, a
philosopher following the trial of Socrates. Moreover, Yun Lee Too
demonstrates how the narrative of 'self' in the Antidosis is to be
understood as a sophisticated amalgam of literary, rhetorical,
philosophical, and legal discourses.
