Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 1999.

Throughout the 5th and 4th centuries BC, at the close of each campaign season the Athenian state honored its dead in a public burial ceremony, choosing a prominent orator to give the keynote address. Two of those orations, those of the orators Demosthenes and Hypereides, are the subject of After the fall: the funeral orations of Demosthenes and Hypereides, a thesis written by Judson Spencer Herrman under the direction of Albert Henrichs. The work is written in the format of a critical edition with translation and commentary.

520 $a Throughout the 5th and 4th centuries BC, at the close of each campaign season the Athenian state honored its dead in a public burial ceremony, choosing a prominent orator to give the keynote address. Two of those orations, those of the orators Demosthenes and Hypereides, are the subject of After the fall: the funeral orations of Demosthenes and Hypereides, a thesis written by Judson Spencer Herrman under the direction of Albert Henrichs. The work is written in the format of a critical edition with translation and commentary.
520 $a The textual edition is based on a fresh collation of the papyrus that provides the sole basis for Hypereides' speech and four of the most important Byzantine manuscripts of Demosthenes. This is the first edition of Demosthenes' speech to report accurately the readings of the manuscripts with respect to prose rhythm. The Hypereides edition is the first to conform to editorial conventions which are now standard for papyrological texts, and the critical apparatus contains more information about the suggestions of earlier scholars than can be found in existing editions.
520 $a The commentary focuses on literary and historical issues. It considers the position these two orations hold within the epitaphic genre and also demonstrates their significance as sources of historical information for the last days of classical Athens. In contrast to the other surviving funeral orations, the speeches of Demosthenes and Hypereides were delivered much in the form which survives. The authenticity of these two funeral orations makes their study crucial for an understanding of the epitaphic genre. Unlike the other orations, these two speeches are detailed sources for the history of their period. They were delivered at two of the most important junctures in 4thcentury Athenian history: the tragic defeat by Philip at Chaeronea in 338 and the Lamian War, which finally brought Athens and the rest of Greece under Macedonian control in 322.
