Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In classical Athens, a funeral speech was delivered for dead combatants almost every year, the most famous being that by Pericles in 430 BC. In 1981, Nicole Loraux transformed our understanding of this genre. Her The Invention of Athens showed how it reminded the Athenians who they were as a people. Loraux demonstrated how each speech helped them to maintain the same self-identity for two centuries. But The Invention of Athens was far from complete. This volume brings together top-ranked experts to finish Loraux's book. It answers the important questions about the numerous surviving funeral speeches that she ignored. It also undertakes a comparison of the funeral oration with other genres that is missing in her famous book. What emerges is a speech that had a much greater political impact than Loraux thought. This volume puts the study of war in Athenian culture on a completely new footing. A funeral speech was delivered almost every year in classical Athens. Forty years ago, Loraux showed how important it was for maintaining Athenian self-identity. But her famous book left many questions unanswered. In answering them, this volume puts the study of war in Athenian culture on a completely new footing. This item is printed on demand.
