This multiauthored volume, as well as bringing into clearer focus the notion of drama and oratory as important media of public inquiry and critique, aims to generate significant attention to the unified intentions of the dramatist and the orator to establish favourable conditions of internal stability in democratic Athens. We hope that readers both enjoy and find valuable their engagement with these ideas and beliefs regarding the indissoluble bond between oratorical expertise and dramatic artistry. This exciting collection of studies by worldwide acclaimed classicists and acute younger Hellenists is envisaged as part of the general effort, almost unanimously acknowledged as valid and productive, to explore the impact of formalized speech in particular and craftsmanship rhetoric in general upon Attic drama as a moral and educational force in the Athenian city-state. Both poet and orator seek to deepen the central tensions of their work and to enlarge the main themes of their texts to even broader terms by investing in the art of rhetoric, whilst at the same time, through a skillful handling of events, evaluating the past and establishing standards or ideology.

War is one of the most visible subjects of ancient historiography. Yet historians did not simply recount battles and campaigns: they also reflected on the nature of warfare itself and on the forces that shape conflict. This volume explores how Greek and Roman historians conceptualize war and integrate it into broader interpretations of human action, political life, and historical development. Through close readings of authors from Herodotus and Thucydides to Polybius, Appian, Cassius Dio, and late antique historians, the contributors examine how ancient writers explain the origins of wars, interpret success and failure in military action, and reflect on the interaction between strategy, chance, leadership, and human character. By shifting attention from war as a sequence of events to war as a problem of historical interpretation, the volume highlights the intellectual and narrative frameworks through which ancient historians made sense of conflict and its role in shaping the past.
