Dinarchus wrote, for one or more of these prosecutors, the three speeches which are still extant: Against Demosthenes, Against Aristogeiton, and Against Philocles.

His own dating rests on the observation that Dinarchus says he was old when he delivered his speech against Proxenus in 291/90 and on his assumption that this means he was seventy years old at the time.
Dinarchus is accusing Demosthenes of failing to perform this duty.
Dinarchus asks the court to compare two decrees (par' allela) of Demosthenes, but only identifies one in the main clause, which is not read out until 83.

 Apophasis (Special Investigations)
Dinarchus says that either the Areopagus or the Assembly could initiate an apophasis: “The council of the Areopagus is bound, gentlemen, to follow one of two methods in making all its reports (τὰς ἀποφάσεις).
Dinarchus describes the sequence of events: “In the case of Polyeuctus of Cydantidae, when the people instructed the Council of the Areopagus to inquire whether he was accompanying the exiles to Megara and to report back after the investigation, it reported that he was doing so.
But, Dinarchus reminds the jury, “Polyeuctus came into court and you acquitted him, on his admitting that he was going to Megara to Nicophanes who, he said, was married to his mother.

 Context: Dinarchus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Dinarchus was an orator who made his career in Athens (see Oratory).
So, when a speech by Dinarchus is cited as evidence, it should be understood that this was a speech he wrote for an Athenian citizen to deliver before a jury or in the Assembly.
Christopher W. Blackwell, “Dinarchus,” in C. Blackwell, ed., Dêmos: Classical Athenian Democracy (A. Mahoney and R. Scaife, edd., The Stoa: a consortium for scholarly publication in the humanities [www.stoa.org]) edition of April 8, 2003.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2000.09.10
The discussion of Dinarchus' manuscripts and papyri is drawn from the fuller treatment in W 1; the thorough account of the discovery and publication of Hyperides' speeches on papyrus is interesting and useful.
The Greek texts of the three speeches are based on the Teubner texts of Conomis for Dinarchus and Jensen for Hyperides (though for the latter W follows the OCT numbering of the speeches, not Jensen's).
The commentary on Dinarchus 1 is a condensed version of W 1, which generally drew praise for its sound and thorough treatment of historical issues.

Dinarchus was not an Athenian, but he was called on to write speeches in connection with a corruption scandal (the Harpalus affair) that put an end to the career of Demosthenes.
His speeches thus raise many of the vital issues surrounding the Macedonian conquest of Athens and the final years of Athenian democracy.
Hyperides was an important public figure who was involved in many of the events described by Dinarchus and Lycurgus.

Taylor is best known for his editions of some of the Greek orators, chiefly valuable for the notes on Attic law, e.g.
Lysias (1739); Demosthenes Contra Leptinem (1741) and Contra Midiam (1743, with Lycurgus Contra Leocratem), intended as specimens of a proposed edition, in five volumes, of the orations of Demosthenes, Aeschines, Dinarchus and Demades, of which only vols.
Taylor also published (under the title of Marinor Sandvicense) a commentary on the inscription on an ancient marble brought from Greece by Lord Sandwich, containing particulars of the receipts and expenditure of the Athenian magistrates appointed to celebrate the festival of Apollo at Delos in 374 BC.

 Electronic Antiquities Volume I, Number 1
Recently I published an article on ring composition in Greek oratory and the implications of that device for the literary critic and for the ancient historian.
In the course of my work on Dinarchus and now on the other Greek orators, I wondered whether the orators used ring composition in other writings and not just in their speeches, which were intended for a wide circulation.
Since, through my work on Dinarchus, I seem to be championing the 'stylistic underdogs', Demosthenes was thus excluded (ring composition, incidentally, is evident in Demosthenes' public and private speeches); (10) this left Isocrates.

The book critically evaluates the speeches of Dinarchus and of Hyperides against Demosthenes and Hyperides' funeral oration as historical sources for Athens in the last years of the reign of Alexander the Great and also the Lamian War.
The history of the period is discussed in detail, as is the rhetorical style of these two orators.

Leland may be added a paragraph from the sketch of Dinarchus that appears in the “Encyclopedia Britannica”: “It must always be borne in mind that Dinarchus, was a Corinthian, a mere resident alien at Athens, whose sympathies were in favor of Athenian oligarchy under Macedonian control.
Little in the man’s life, so far as we know it, enjoys our respect or esteem; his position must, at least, be broadly distinguished from that of such a man as Æschines, an Athenian citizen, who, while his city could still be served, abetted its enemies; or, from that of such a hireling as Demades.

 Phocion by Plutarch
The orator Agnonides, however, at once fell foul upon Phocion, and impeached him of treason; Callimedon and Charicles, fearing the worst, consulted their own security by flying from the city.
Phocion, with a few of his friends that stayed with him went over to Polysperchon, and out of respect for him, Solon of Plataea, and Dinarchus of Corinth, who were reputed friends and confidants of Polysperchon, accompanied him.
But on account of Dinarchus falling ill, they remained several days in Elatea, during which time, upon the persuasion of Agnonides and on the motion of Archestratus, a decree passed that the people should send delegates thither to accuse Phocion.
