Beschreibung
Introduction, translation into Italian and commentary of the oration Contro Timoteo, delivered by the orator Apollodorus in the 60s of the 4th century BC and included in the corpus Demosthenicum.
The introduction deals with issues related to the type of legal action, the dating of the speech, the structure and legal relevance of the arguments put forward by the orator, and the figure of the banker in the socio-economic landscape of classical Athens. The introduction is completed with a prosopographical appendix on the historical figures mentioned in the text (Callistratus, Iphicrates, Jason, Alceta) and a section on the manuscript tradition, as well as a textual note. The introduction is followed by the translation, the first in Italian for this text. Finally, the long commentary, the first extensive commentary the oration has received.
The volume will provide a useful working tool for scholars and students who find themselves having to consult or read the oration Against Timothy. Indeed, both the introduction and the commentary combine a close philological, historical and legal analysis of the text with a focus on the most recent theoretical models (Neosubstantivism, New Institutional Economics, New Institutional History).
