Excerpt from The Orations of Isocrates, Vol. 1 Wnnn the publishers requested me to undertake the present work. They kindly placed at my disposal a ms. Translation as far as 5 70 of the Philippus by another scholar, Mr. A. H. Dennis. Of Exeter College. Oxford. Who has been prevented by professional engagements from revising and completing it. This portion of the volume I have left as far as possible as it was written. Only making alterations when rendered necessary by the use of a later edition of the text; and, in some few cases. Where another rendering appeared to be preferable. For the General Introduction, short Introductions to each speech. The whole of the Notes, and the remainder of the Translation, I am responsible. So far as I am aware. This is the first attempt at a complete English translation of the works of Isocrates. Although, as a rule. He is an easy author to understand, the elaborate correspondence of clauses. And even of words, in the original renders it dim cult to represent him satisfactorily in English. And I can only hope that my version may be found fairly correct. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
