Along with the other Philippics of Demosthenes', it is arguably one of the finest deliberative speeches from antiquity. The present volume provides the first commentary in English on the Philippics  since 1907 and promises to encourage more study of this essential Greek orator. Aiming his\n\u003cbr\u003ecommentary at advanced undergraduates and first-year graduate students, Cecil Wooten addresses rhetorical and stylistic matters, historical background, and grammatical problems. In addition to a full commentary on Philippic I, this\n\u003cbr\u003evolume includes essays that outline Philippics  II and III, set them in their historical context, and emphasize the differences between these later speeches and the first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44058069631214,"sku":"9780195333275","price":32.25,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780195333275.jpg?v=1706211450","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/commentary-on-demosthenes-philippic-i-a","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
