Description:The book offers a critical investigation of a wide range of features of religious discourse in the transmitted forensic, symbouleutic and epideictic orations of the Ten Attic Orators, a body of 151 speeches which represents the mature flourishing of the ancient art of public speaking and persuasion. It is articulated in four chapters: Chapter 1 provides a full-scale survey of the persistently and recurrently used features of religious discourse in Attic oratory. Chapter 2 aims to contextualize, comment on and explain the use of specific patterns of religious discourse in specific oratorical contexts, examining the means or restrictions that these contexts generate for the speaker.
