This volume presents two significant works by Demosthenes: 'The Oration On the Crown' and the 'Philippic Orations.' These speeches are pivotal examples of classical rhetoric and offer invaluable insights into the political landscape of ancient Greece during the rise of Philip II of Macedon. 'The Oration On the Crown' is Demosthenes’ masterful defense of his political career, delivered in response to accusations made against him. The 'Philippic Orations' comprise a series of impassioned speeches urging the Athenians to resist Philip’s expansionist ambitions. Edited with comprehensive notes by T.H.L. Leary, this edition provides essential context and analysis for students and scholars alike. Demosthenes’ powerful oratory continues to resonate today, serving as a testament to the enduring importance of persuasive speech and civic engagement.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
