The subjects of this dissertation are the linguistic elements and stylistic features which define the social practices of the 4th century elite orator as he addresses the Assembly audience. I focus on tactics of communication such as the orator's identification of his audience, and other "ceremonial" aspects of speech. The features studied are rhetorical elements with strong social implications.

520 $a The subjects of this dissertation are the linguistic elements and stylistic features which define the social practices of the 4th century elite orator as he addresses the Assembly audience. I focus on tactics of communication such as the orator's identification of his audience, and other "ceremonial" aspects of speech. The features studied are rhetorical elements with strong social implications.
520 $a This study proceeds from the assumption that a speaker's language will inevitably accomodate and construct the social context of delivery. It considers linguistic forms because they contribute to our understanding of a social code and social relations, indeed, the social entity. The approach of the speaker to his audience, that is, contributes to the social reality of citizens' life in 4th century Athens.
520 $a In chapter 1, I consider Demosthenes' approach to the audience in terms of politeness, a feature whose usage linguists and anthropologists convincingly argue is tied to the social context of speech. I consider Demosthenes 14, his earliest Assembly speech. Section 1.2 is a study of Demosthenes' tactics of politeness throughout his Assembly career. In chapter 2, I investigate how Demosthenes relates his audience to a particular socio-economic category. Section 2.1 considers the historical evidence for the exclusivity of the socio-economic category of those liable to pay eisphora; section 2.2.1 is a study of the formula Demosthenes uses for these financial contributions to the state; section 2.2.2 concerns Demosthenes' socio-economic typification and subject positioning of his audience.
520 $a The larger issue these studies point to is the relationship between an elite speaker and citizens of a generally inferior social and economic status. Demosthenes' Assembly speeches can provide answers to practical and important questions about the social conventions used in address to an Athenian audience, and can show in detail methods employed in the face of the serious internal differences within the Athenian democracy. The kind of relationship Demosthenes created with his audience informs us about a popular---and thereby legitimatized---manner by which the speaker and audience managed differences and generated ideas about the social entity.
