505 0 Introduction / Jonathan Powell, Lene Rubinstein, and
Christos Kremmydas -- Hypokritēs in action: delivery in
Greek rhetoric / Mike Edwards -- Performing the speech in
Athenian courts and assembly: adjusting the act to fit the
bēma? / Victor Bers -- Staging a prosecution: aspects of
performance on Cicero's Verrines / Kathryn Tempest --
Synēgoroi as 'healers' in the social imagination of the
Imperial age / Dimitris Karambelas -- The exploits of
Honorius: evidence for Roman advocacy in the time of
Justinian / Jonathan Powell -- The rhetoric of the Common
Law / Sir John Laws -- Bibliography -- Index.
520 "His volume brings together six papers relating to oratory
and orators in public fora of Classical Greece and Rome.
Edwards and Bers explore aspects of oratorical delivery in
the Athenian courts and Assembly, including the demands
placed on orators by the physical settings. Tempest
examines the conceptions of oratorical competence and
incompetence, particularly in respect of performance, as
they are implied in Cicero's criticisms of the rival
prosecutor in the trial of Verres. Papers by Karambelas
and Powell look at evidence for the importance of advocacy
in the Second Sophistic and the late Roman Empire
respectively. In an introduction, the editors discuss
recurrent themes connected with the orator's competence
and performance, while the final paper of the volume, by
Lord Justice Laws, reflects on the continuing relevance of
rhetoric in the modern, highly professionalised practice
of the law in England."--|cBack cover.
