Transition In The Attic Orators

Transition In The Attic Orators is a scholarly work by Robert Dale Elliott that explores the evolution of Greek oratory from the 5th to the 4th centuries BCE. The book focuses on the transition from the classical period, characterized by formal speeches and rigid structure, to the more fluid and emotional style of the later period. Elliott examines the works of famous orators such as Lysias, Isocrates, and Demosthenes, analyzing their rhetorical techniques and the ways in which they adapted to the changing political and social landscape of ancient Athens. The book also delves into the cultural and historical context of the time, providing a comprehensive understanding of the factors that influenced the development of Greek oratory. Transition In The Attic Orators is an essential resource for scholars of ancient Greek history, literature, and rhetoric, as well as anyone interested in the evolution of language and communication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
