by Nick Fisher (Commentary)
This is a commentary on Aeschines' "Against Timarchos", the prosecution speech in the politically crucial trial of 346/5BC. It is a rhetorical masterpiece of misrepresentation, which persuaded the jury to convict Timarchos despite the fact that Aeschines had virtually no evidence of his misdeeds.
