  • "This volume is offered to enable the modern reader to understand and then to appreciate the oratorical artistry of Demosthenes. There are many lessons to be learned from a careful reading of his oration On the Crown -- historical, moral, political, rhetorical -- and the essays in the volume are offered as guides to such study. A fresh translation in the modern idiom was created especially for this book by Professor John J. Keaney of the Department of Classics of Princeton University. Part One of the book deals with the historical situation and the speech itself. Part Two opens with a brief resumé of the rhetorical factors to be considered in evaluating any speech. - Introduction."
