Aeschines' powerful speeches include Against Timarchus, On the False Embassy, and Against Ctesiphon.$bAeschines, orator and statesman of Athens, 390 or 389-314 BCE, became active in politics about 350. In 348 he was a member of a mission sent to the Peloponnese to stir up feeling against the growing power of king Philip of Macedon; but in 347, when part of a peace-making embassy to Philip, was won over to sympathy with the king, and became a supporter of the peace policy of the Athenian statesman Eubulus. On a second embassy in 346 to ratify a peace Aeschines' delaying tactics caused the famous orator Demosthenes and Timarchus to accuse him of treason, a charge which he successfully rebutted in the strong extant speech Against Timarchus. In 344-343, when Demosthenes accused him again in a speech, Aeschines replied in the fine extant speech having the same title On the False Embassy and was again acquitted. In 336, when Ctesiphon proposed that Demosthenes should be awarded a crown of gold for state service, Aeschines accused him of proposing something which would violate existing laws. At the trial Aeschines' extant speech Against Ctesiphon was answered by Demosthenes in his masterpiece On the Crown. Aeschines, discredited, left Athens and set up a school of rhetoric at Rhodes. He died in Samos. As examples of Greek oratory the speeches of Aeschines rank next to those of Demosthenes, and are important documents for the study of Athenian diplomacy and inner politics. 606 $aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Greek 606 $aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Greek$3(OCoLC)1129363$2fast 607 $aAthens (Greece)$xPolitics and government$vEarly works to 1800 615 0$aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Greek. 615 7$aSpeeches, addresses, etc., Greek 700 $aAeschines$0155491 702 $aAdams$b C.

As against current views that Ezekiel represents the collapse of prophetism into priestly and scribal forms, she argues that something radically different in prophecy begins with Ezekiel. Ezekiel represents the creation of a new literary idiom for prophecy. He develops an archival speech form oriented less toward current events than to reshaping the tradition. He has taken a step backward from direct confrontation with an audience as the basic dynamic of communication, and has m 410 0$aBible and literature series ;$v21. 410 0$aJournal for the study of the Old Testament.$pSupplement series ;$v78. 606 $aHebrew language$xStyle 615 0$aHebrew language$xStyle. 676 $a224 676 $a224.4066 676 $a224/.4066 700 $aDavis$b Ellen F$01154165 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782385103321 996 $aSwallowing the scroll$93710057 997 $aUNINA
