Overview

Excerpt from Demosthenes Against Androtion and Against Timocrates: With Introductions and English Notes OF the two Speeches included in this volume, the shorter, Against Androtz'on, has never yet been separately edited in England. The only separate edition of it appeared just fifty years ago in Germany, that of O. H. Funkhaenel, with Latin notes, Leipzig, 1832. The other and longer speech, A gainst Timocmtes, has not been separately edited at all; though its composite character, and the uncertainty how far in its extant form it corresponds with the speech actually delivered, have given it a prominent place in recent critical discussions. A tolerably clear field is thus open, it has been thought, for an edition with an English commentary; and the close connexion of the two speeches both in subject-matter and treatment, extending even to the repetition of whole passages with only slight altera tions, has suggested the dual arrangement here adopted.
