Summary
This is a monograph, in English, about Demades, an influential Athenian politician and a collaborator of many leaders of classical Greece, including Alexander the Great and Demosthenes. Reflecting that most of the available sources about Demades belong to the Roman imperial period, this book proceeds from presenting the figure of Demades as a later rhetorical construct to revealing the problematic nature of our overall knowledge about classical Greece.
