earliest surviving orators, Antiphon and Andocides. Antiphon
(ca. 480-411) was a leading Athenian intellectual and
creator of the profession of logography ("speech writing"),
whose special interest was law and justice. His six
surviving works all concern homicide cases. Andocides (ca.
440-390) was involved in two religious scandals - the
mutilation of the Herms (busts of Hermes) and the revelation
of the Eleusinian Mysteries - on the eve of the fateful
Athenian expedition to Sicily in 415. His speeches are a
defense against charges relating to those events."--BOOK
JACKET. "Antiphon's speeches are introduced and translated
by Michael Gagarin, Professor of Classics at the University
of Texas at Austin. Andocides' speeches are introduced and
translated by Douglas M. MacDowell, Professor of Greek at
the University of Glasgow."--BOOK JACKET.
