Demosthenes, the famous Attic statesman and orator of the fourth century BC, has inspired and influenced authors and politicians from antiquity through Byzantine times to the present day, and the study of his speeches has never ceased. Numerous fragments of papyri and parchments from Ancient Egypt survive, and there are more than two hundred Greek manuscripts containing Demosthenes still available today, dating from the ninth to the 16th century. The contributions in this volume deal with various palaeographical, cultural and historical aspects of the transmission of Demosthenes: Luciano Canfora on the history of the text of Demosthenes through the ages; Herwig Maehler on commentaries preserved in papyri; Konstantinos A. Kapparis on the speeches of Apollodoros incorporated in the Corpus Demosthenicum; Stefano Martinelli Tempesta on the relationship between the primary manuscripts; Ernst Gamillscheg on the origin of the Codex Parisinus graecus 2934 (S); Brigitte Mondrain on palaeographical and philological aspects of some manuscripts, including a new dating of the Codex Monacensis graecus 485 (A); Sofia Kotzabassi on the transmission and reception of Demosthenes in Byzantium in the 13th century. Further contributions by Herbert Bannert, Lisa Benedetti, Lorenzo Maria Ciolfi, Jana Gruskova, Felipe G. Hernandez Munoz, Laszlo Horvath and Donal Spence McGay are concerned with other questions of the transmission of the Corpus Demosthenicum, and also more generally with Demosthenes and Greek rhetoric.
