Document Details : Title: Zwischen Kontinuität und Wandel Subtitle: Die Kommunikation von Rhetoren und Demos im klassischen Athen Author(s): PIEPENBRINK, Karen Journal: Ancient Society Volume: 45 Date: 2015 Pages: 1-26 DOI: 10.2143/AS.45.0.3110540 Abstract : The article demonstrates that in Athenian democracy in the communication between speakers and demos from the age of Pericles to Demosthenes’ time profound continuities prevail. The expectations of the demos towards the speakers do not change within this period. The same applies to the institutional framework conditions under which the speakers operate. There are just gradual changes in argumentation, for example concerning reference to the past. |
