Eschine était un éminent homme d'État grec et l'un des dix orateurs attiques. Sa maîtrise de la rhétorique et de l'art oratoire en fit une figure marquante de la politique athénienne de son époque.
"This is the first commentary in any language on Aeschines' Against Timarchos, the prosecution speech in the politically crucial trial of 346/5BC. The case was that Timarchos was forbidden to hold public office and disenfranchised because he had engaged in improper homosexual relationships in the past and had wasted his inheritance on debauchery. This book provides a new translation, a full introduction, and a commentary, all accessible to those without knowledge of Greek"--Publisher
