Greek Orators I: Antiphon, Lysias - Aris & Phillips Classical Texts First published in the United Kingdom in 1985, cor edition
M. Edwards
Rational persuasion and appeal to an audience's emotions are elements of most literature, but they are found in their purest form in oratory. The speeches written by the Greek Orators for delivery in law-courts, deliberative councils and assemblies enjoyed an honoured literary status, and rightly so, for the best of them have great vitality.
