''A Review of Lord Brougham’s Translation of the Oration of Demosthenes on the Crown'' is a critical analysis of Lord Brougham’s translation of the famous speech by the ancient Greek orator Demosthenes. The book was written by George Burges and published in 1840. In the review, Burges examines the accuracy and quality of Lord Brougham’s translation, comparing it to other translations and the original Greek text. Burges also discusses the historical and political context of the speech, which was delivered in Athens in 330 BC and is considered one of the greatest speeches in Western history. The review is written in a scholarly style and provides valuable insights into the translation of ancient texts and the study of classical literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
