The Fourth Oration of Isocrates, Called The Panegyric (1875) is a book that presents the fourth oration of the ancient Greek rhetorician Isocrates. The oration is known as the Panegyric, and it was delivered in 380 BC to commemorate the end of the Corinthian War. The book provides a complete translation of the oration into English, along with a detailed introduction that explains the historical context and significance of the speech.In the Panegyric, Isocrates praises Athens and argues that it is the duty of all Greeks to work together to achieve peace and prosperity. He emphasizes the importance of education and moral character in achieving these goals, and he criticizes the political leaders of his time for their failure to uphold these values.The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Greek history, rhetoric, or philosophy. It provides a window into the political and intellectual world of ancient Athens, and it offers insights into the values and beliefs that shaped the ancient Greek civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
