As a speechwriter, orator, and politician, Demosthenes captured, embodied, and shaped his time. He was a key player in Athens in the twilight of the city''s independence, and is today a primary source for its history and society during that period. The Oxford Handbook of Demosthenes sets out to explore the many facets of his life, work, and time, giving particular weight to elucidating the settings and contexts of his activities, as well as some of the key themes dealt with in his speeches, and thereby illustrating the interplay and mutual influence between his rhetoric and the environment from which it emerged. The volume''s thirty-five chapters are authored by experts in the field and offer both comprehensive coverage and an up-to-date reference point for the issues and problems encountered when approaching the speeches in particular: they not only showcase how Demosthenes'' rhetoric was profoundly influenced by Athenian reality, but also explore its reception from Demosthenes'' own day right up until the present and how his presentation of his world has subsequently shaped our view of it. The wide range of expertise and the different scholarly traditions represented are a vivid demonstration of the richness and diversity of current Demosthenic studies and the contribution the volume makes to enriching our knowledge of the life and work of one of the most prominent figures of ancient Greece will be of significance to a wide readership interested in Athenian history, society, rhetoric, politics, and law.

Religious Argumentation in Demosthenes

Gunther Martin examines the references to religion in the speeches of Demosthenes and other Athenian orators in the 4th century BC. In Part I he demonstrates the role religion plays in the rhetorical strategy of speeches in political trials: his main argument is that speakers had to be consistent in their approach to religion throughout their career. It was not possible to change from being a pragmatic to a `religious'' speaker and back, but it was possible, whenwriting for others, to use religion in a way one would not have used it when delivering a speech oneself. In Part II Martin deals with assembly speeches and speeches in private trials, in which religious references are far scarcer. In the assembly, unless genuinely religious matters are discussed,religion seems to have been practically inadmissible, while in private trials it is procedural elements that supply the majority of religious references.

Euripides’ Ion is a highly complex and elusive play and thus poses considerable difficulties to any interpreter. On the basis of a new recension of the text, this commentary offers explanations of the language, literary technique, and realia of the play and discusses the main issues of interpretation. In this way the reader is provided with the material required for an appreciation of this entertaining as well as provocative dramatic composition.

Aufgrund seiner Vielschichtigkeit gehört der Ion zu den am schwersten fassbaren Tragödien des Euripides. Theologie, Politik und Gattungsgesetze sind nur drei der Themen, die in der Forschung zu dieser Tragödie über einen ausgesetzten und wiedergefundenen athenischen Prinzen und Sohn des Apoll kontrovers diskutiert werden. Der vorliegende Kommentar liefert eine Neuedition des Textes zusammen mit detaillierten Erläuterungen, die auf sprachliche Schwierigkeiten ebenso eingehen wie auf literarische und dramaturgische Fragen. Ein besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf Elementen, durch die zeitgenössische soziale, rechtliche und poltische Ideen und Institutionen in die mythische Handlung integriert werden. Die Einleitung behandelt neben den großen interpretatorischen Problemen auch die Bearbeitung des Mythos durch Euripides, die Datierung und die Geschichte des Texts. So erhält die Diskussion des Stückes sowohl in den Einzelheiten als auch im Ganzen eine neue Grundlage.

This volume collects papers on pragmatic perspectives on ancient theatre. Scholars working on literature, linguistics, theatre will find interesting insights on verbal and non-verbal uses of language in ancient Greek and Roman Drama. Comedies and tragedies spanning from the 5th century B.C.E. to the 1st century C.E. are investigated in terms of im/politeness, theory of mind, interpersonal pragmatics, body language, to name some of the approaches which afford new interpretations of difficult textual passages or shed new light into nuances of characterisation, or possibilities of performance. Words, silence, gestures, do things, all the more so in dramatic dialogues on stage.
