	Ethics of Philip, Demosthenes, and Alexander by Sanderson Beck
		Jealous of the friendship between Plato and Dion, Dionysius II sent Dion into exile for writing a letter to Carthaginian commanders in Sicily even though he was their usual diplomatic contact; so Plato returned to Athens.
		The supporters of Dionysius II were confined to the Ortygia citadel when Dion and the Syracusans took the garrison Epipolae and the fort of Euryalus, freeing the political prisoners.
		When Halicarnassus was set on fire and abandoned by Memnon, Alexander appointed Ada queen of Caria, while she adopted him as a son.

	Dion - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Dion
		When his brother-in-law the tyrant Dionysius I died 367, Dion invited Plato, the philosopher, to Syracuse with a view to making Dionysius II a philsopher-king.
		Dion also conspired against Dionysius the Younger, seeing his subjects desirous of a conspiracy, and that he himself was always drunk: and even a man's friends will do this if they despise him; for from the confidence he places in them, they think that they shall not be found out.
		To him we owe the Brasidas, the Dion, the Epaminondas, the Scipio of old, and I must think we are more deeply indebted to him than to all the ancient writers.

		Oh, Dion, if you know how something in me cares for freshness and for peace!" Her glad energies were strangely stilled; yet there was a kind of force in her stillness, the force that is in all deep truths of whatever nature they may be.
		When Dion had watched him into the distance, beyond which lay the shining glory of the sea, and looked up to Rosamund again, she was pulling the little dry leaves from her undulating hair.
		Dion's eyes told her that they were drawing nearer and nearer to the secret he knew of, and was going to reveal to her.

		There is a considerable fragment commonly considered as a part of the 35th book, which however more probably belongs to the 36th, and from this book onward to the 54th the work is extant complete, and embraces the history from the wars of Lucullus and Cn.
		But with all these excellences, Dion Cassius is the equal neither of Thucydides nor of Tacitus, though we may admit that his faults are to a great extent rather those of his age than of his individual character as an historian.
		He had been trained in the schools of the rhetoricians, and the consequences of it are visible in his history, which is not free from a rhetorical tinge, especially in the speeches which are introduced in it.

		But we may justly suspect that the historian Dion was the author of a counsel so much adapted to the practice of his own age, and so little to that of Augustus.
		Plutarch and Dion Cassius swell the massacre to 150,000 citizens; but I should esteem the smaller number to be more than sufficient.

		Whereas his nephews were inexperienced, Dion had wielded power as administrator and commander under their father, and he felt himself competent to guide the hands of young Dionysius, whom he regarded as quite contemptible.
		Dion was now suspected of aiming at tyranny himself, and he put an end to Heraclides' intrigues by having him murdered.
		Dion, however, lacked the states manlike qualities which were required to save Sicily from anarchy; for, although his motives may have been philosophically admirable, he was a rigid advocate of intellectual and political aristocracy, a ruthless despiser of the proletariat, and in his relations with Heraclides both weak and treacherous.

		Dion wrote several historical works, but the most important was a History of Rome ('Pw^aV/c^ 'lo-ropia), which alone has come down to us, though in a sadly mutilated state, only a comparatively small portion having reached us entire.
		Dion Cassius himself intimates that he treated the history of republican Rome briefly, but that he endeavored to give a more minute and detailed account of those events of which he had himself been an eyewitness.1
		It must also be borne in mind, as Dion himself observes, that the history of the empire presented many more difficulties to the historian than that of the republic.

		Dion Cassius, at that time praetor, had been a personal enemy to Julian, i.
		The historian Dion, who had admired the flourishing, and lamented the desolate, state of Byzantium, accused the revenge of Severus, for depriving the Roman people of the strongest bulwark against the barbarians of Pontus and Asia
		Dion Cassius seems to have written with no other view than to form these opinions into an historical system.

	Rome - Vol I, Chapter V - Notes
		Dion does not say that Severus destroyed Byzantium, but that he deprived it of its franchises and privileges, stripped the inhabitants of their property, razed the fortifications, and subjected the city to the jurisdiction of Perinthus.
		The marriage of Plautilla with Caracalla was unfortunate; and the prince who had been forced to consent to it, menaced the father and the daughter with death when he should come to the throne.
		Dion considers the conspiracy the invention of Caracalla, by whose command, almost by whose hand, Plautianus was slain in the presence of Severus.

	Table of Contents and Excerpt, Todd, Lysias
		For instance, Dionysius of Halicarnassus argued that Lysias could not have written the two speeches written for Iphicrates, because they belonged some years after his presumed death around 378 (Dion.
		It is on the basis of similar considerations that modern scholars agree that Lysias 20, which belongs in 410 or 409, is too early to be by Lysias, whose career makes best sense if it began in 403/2.
		They have been selected because they are sufficiently substantial to give a clear idea of what was happening in the speech and are therefore likely to be of most interest to readers of this series.

		On the death of that emperor, his testament was publicly read in the senate.
		It was, however, scarcely in his power to place the superiority of his predecessor in a more conspicuous light, than by thus confessing himself unequal to the task of defending the conquests of Trajan.
		As the authors of almost every revolution that distracted the empire, the Praetorians will, very soon, and very loudly, demand our attention; but, in their arms and institutions, we cannot find any circumstance which discriminated them from the legions, unless it were a more splendid appearance, and a less rigid discipline.

	Cheryl Walker, Hostages in Republican Rome - Chapter 1: Meaning and Purpose of Hostageship in the Greco-Roman World ...
		For example, native levies serving with the Roman army are very occasionally referred to as hostages (Livy 23.4.8; 7.2; 31.10; 40.47.10 et al.) [23] as are prisoners of war (Dionysius of Halicarnassus 3.57.1).
		[33] Dionysius of Halicarnassus could relate, and apparently believe, that Latinus had adopted the hostages Romulus and Remus in the absence of any heirs of his own (Dionysius of Halicarnassus 1.73.2).
		Further, we may infer that, by the time of the early Principate, there was some revulsion at the idea that innocent hostages could be used to expiate the guilt of their countrymen (Livy 28.34.7-10).
