	Lysias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lysias lifted up his voice to denounce Dionysius as, next to Artaxerxes, the worst enemy of Hellas, and to impress upon the assembled Greeks that one of their foremost duties was to deliver Sicily from a hateful oppression.
		Lysias was a man of kindly and genial nature, warm in friendship, loyal to country, with a keen perception of character and a fine though strictly controlled sense of humour.
		Lysias is the earliest writer who is known to have composed purucof; it is as representing both rhetoric and a false or that he is the object of attack in the Phaedrus.

	King Lysias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Lysias' coins use almost entirely the type of King Demetrius: the elephant scalp, Herakles standing, crowning himself, and holding his club, with the single addition of a palm to signify victory.
		Lysias issued some coins which bear the name of the "Western" king Antialcidas on the reverse, in the Kharoshthi script: MAHARAJASA JAYADHARASA AMTIALIKIDASA "The victorious king Antialcidas", together with the pilei (hats) of the Dioscuri, a type typical of Antialcidas.

	Table of Contents and Excerpt, Todd, Lysias
		Lysias himself recounts how he and his brother Polemarchus were among a small group of metics arrested by the Thirty, allegedly on suspicion of being hostile towards the regime, but really (according to Lysias) in order to confiscate their considerable wealth (Lys.12.12-19).
		We are told that Lysias himself was a beneficiary of a decree proposed immediately after the restoration by Thrasybulus, one of the democratic leaders, granting citizenship to those metics who had assisted the democrats, but that this decree was promptly challenged by Archinus, one of the other democratic leaders, and annulled as unconstitutional.
		The survival of a speech, therefore, cannot be taken as evidence that it was one of Lysias' finest, let alone that it was (or was regarded) as authentic, either in the sense of being genuinely by Lysias or in the sense of being a genuine speech.

		His summary of the meager evidence for Lysias' life and career is sensible throughout, gently endorsing the later date of 445 for Lysias' birth and treating the Lysianic references in Plato's dialogues, troublesome in their dramatic dates, as evidence for Lysias' fame and social standing rather than as chronological markers for Lysias' biography.
		Lysias 2, to take an epideictic example, is valuable because it is a plausible and appropriate speech for its apparent dramatic occasion, a funeral oration delivered during the Corinthian War.
		Lysias does not attack the defendants primarily because they were metics, but because they were putting their own private gain before the city's welfare.

		Lysias' attested forensic activity, on the standard assumption that speech 20 (from c.410) is not by him, appears to span the years 403/2 to c.380.
		Lysias made no radical changes to the overall structural framework which he inherited from Antiphon, but expansion of the non-argumentative parts of the speech, especially narrative, gave his oratory a more varied literary character while still fulfilling forensic requirements.
		Lysias, though, is another matter, and from all points of view one must regret not being able to juxtapose Euth., in any useful way, with Lysias' fragmentary and undatable Against Theomnestos (Oxyrhyncus Papyri 1606); this likewise concerned an attempt to recover a monetary deposit made without witnesses.

		LYSIAS was the son of Cephalus, grandson of Lysanias, and great-grandson of Cephalus.
		His father was by birth a Syracusan; but partly for the love he had to the city, and partly in condescension to the persuasions of Pericles the son of Xanthippus, who entertained him as his friend and guest, he went to live at Athens, being a man of great wealth.
