		At the battle of Issus Craterus was still under the wing command of Parmenion, but it is clear that, at least by now, he was given more responsibility; not only did he command his own battalion, but he also had overall command of the three pezhetairoi battalions on the left.

	Plutarch: Life of Demetrius (1) - translation
		As soon as Antigonus was apprised how the battle went, he said, " Ptolemaeus has, indeed, beaten boys, but he shall soon have to do with men." However, as he did not choose to repress the spirit of his son, on his request, he gave him permission to try his fortune again by himself.
		During the interval, after the Lamian war, and the battle of Crannon, the government was called an oligarchy, but in fact, was monarchical, for the power of Demetrius of Phalerum met with no restraint.
		The approaching battle aroused the attention not only of the parties concerned, but of all other princes; for besides the uncertainty of the event, so much depended upon it that the conqueror would not be master of Cyprus and Syria alone, but superior to all his rivals in power.

	The Diadochi: The liberation of Athens
		And so the Athenians recovered their democracy after fifteen years; in the intervening period since the Lamian War and the battle of Crannon [9] the constitution had ostensibly been oligarchic, but was in actual fact the rule of one man because of the power exercised by Demetrius of Phalerum.
		Demetrius had shown his magnificence and greatness in his benefactions, but the Athenians proceeded to make him offensive and obnoxious through the extravagant honors they voted to him.
		In the battle of Crannon, Antipater defeated them (5 September 322); he had placed a garrison in Athens and put an end to the democracy.

	Is the Pen Mightier Than the Sword?
		Using the battle as the climax would have encouraged by its very nature a negative treatment of the orator who ran away, but instead Plutarch shapes the Life to lead up to the death scene, where he considers the orator to have atoned for many of his past faults.
		Philip manipulates and distorts the beginning of the decree, a speech act captured in stone (Demosthenes Demosthenous Paianeus tad' eipen), by scanning it and turning it into a jingling verse; but when sober he realises the power of the words he has mocked; this is then supported by the respect of the Persian king.
		The triumph is short-lived, however, at least in one sense, as the Greeks are crushed in battle at Crannon (the sword prevailing once again) and Demosthenes' death follows immediately in Plutarch's account.
