Author Description

Excerpt from Aeschines Against Ctesiphon (on the Crown): Edited on the Basis of Weidner's Edition Aeschines has gained more than he has lost by the fate which has associated him so intimately with the great rival who over shadows him. While his orations have an interest of their own, that interest is greatly increased by the fact that in each of them he stands opposed to Demosthenes.
