  Demosthenes is regarded as the greatest orator of classical antiquity. Part of the Oratory of Classical Greece series, this volume contains his Funeral Oration for those who died in the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC, and the so-called Erotic Essay, a rhetorical exercise in which the speaker eulogizes the youth Epicrates for his looks.
