Book Description
Excerpt from Notes, Grammatical and Rhetorical, Upon the Oration on the Crown: With an Historical Sketch But, besides this reason for studying them in connection, the student of Demosthenes has another; although the final struggle in which Demosthenes contended for Grecian independence took place in the latter period, yet, without a knowledge of the former, it is impossible either to understand the historical statements and allusions in the speeches of the orator, or to comprehend the objects and principles of the policy recommended in them. II. State of Greece at the commencement of this General Period. 404, B. C. 2. In treating of the state of Greece at the opening of this period, it will be sufficient to speak of Athens and Sparta; and first, of Athens. The battle of AEgospotami which was fought in September or October, 405, B. C., resulted in the capture of almost the entire Athenian fleet, only twelve triremes escaping of the one hundred and eighty-two of which it was composed. Farther resistance was impossible: Byzantium, Chalcedon, Lesbos, Thasos, Samos, indeed, all the cities either in alliance with Athens or dependent upon her, both on the islands of the AEgean, in Thrace and in Asia Minor, submitted to Lysander, - thus was Athens stripped of her foreign possessions. Six months after, about the middle or end of March, 404, B. C., the city itself was taken, and the Peloponnesian war ended. 3. Athens was compelled to submit to the following terms of peace: that her Long Walls and the fortifications of the Piraeus should be destroyed, her vessels with the exception of twelve surrendered, her foreign possessions abandoned, and her citizens confined to the territory of Attica; moreover, that the political exiles should be restored, and Athens become a member of the Peloponnesian confederation, under the headship of Sparta.
