- Readings in Greek Historiography - Adultery, Murder, and
Treason in Ancient Athens |
| In
this introduction to Attic oratory we will be looking at the
court speeches written by Lysias in defense of his clients, which
give us a vivid picture of the everyday life and society of ancient
Athens. Focussing on court cases of adultery, murder and treason,
we will read and think about questions of law, sexuality, gender
and morality. Apart from Lysias we will read comparable excerpts
from other orators, such as Antiphon, complemented by some secondary
reading. |
