This volume collects all of the surviving state funeral orations from classical Athens. Like tragedy these speeches present an image of an idealized Athens. The narratives of past Athenian glories found in these speeches feature many of the same mythical tales that were also presented on stage. Like many of the plays the funeral orations emphasize important themes such as Athenian unity their aid to suppliants and their willingness to drive away foreign invaders to protect the other Greeks. The selective version of more recent history found in the funeral orations also highlights these same qualities by focusing on the role of Athens during the Persian Wars 490-479 when the city helped save the other Greeks from invading foreigners and by passing over other events such as the Peloponnesian War 431404 in which Athens opposed fellow Greeks. Although nearly all of the surviving Greek tragedies are set in the distant mythical past the significant exception is Aeschylus Persians the audience in the theater would recognize aspects of contemporary Athens in the depiction of ancient Athenian heroes such as Theseus. The funeral orations draw similar connections more explicitly by presenting a continuous narrative tying the present generation with the great heroes of long ago." -- with a bonus offer-- .

Gilt crest to head of each vol. of army officer politician and aide-de-camp to George III James St Clair Erskine 2nd Earl of Rosslyn 1762-1837. The scarce first Foulis edition of Thucydides a highly regarded printing: ‘It is beautifully printed and called by Harwood “one of the most correct of all the Greek classics published at Glasgow.” Copies of it are now scarce and in fine condition bear a considerable price’ Dibdin. The text is Duker’s the translation the same as had appeared in Duker’s 1731 folio which is ultimately Valla’s but as revised by Estienne Portus and Duker. This is the variant issue with the Latin text following the Greek text instead of on alternating leaves. Gaskell 375; ESTC T99792; Dibdin II 509.
