The Speeches of Isaeus: With Critical and Explanatory Notes
ISBN: 9781108059367 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 818 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Very little is known about the life of the Attic orator Isaeus, who was active during the first half of the fourth century BCE, and many of his speeches have been lost to posterity. Published in 1904, these surviving speeches, presented in the original Greek with extensive commentary by the classical scholar William Wyse (1860 1929), are mostly concerned with the convoluted intrigue of inheritance disputes.

A Commentary on Selected Speeches of Isaios
ISBN: 9789004258570 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Isaeus
ISBN: 9780674992221 / Angielski / Twarda / 1927 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Though he occupies a firm place in the canon of the ten Attic orators, Isaeus seems not to have been an Athenian, but a metic, being a native of Chalcis in Euboea. From passages in his work he is inferred to have lived from about 420 to 350 BC. But no contemporary mentions him, and it is from Dionysius of Halicarnassus that we learn he was the teacher of Demosthenes, a fact confirmed by several unmistakable examples of borrowing from or imitation of him by his great pupil.
Isaeus took no part in politics, but composed speeches for others, particularly in cases of inheritance. While he... Though he occupies a firm place in the canon of the ten Attic orators, Isaeus seems not to have been an Athenian, but a metic, being a native of Chalc...
