Excerpt from Eight Orations of Lysias: Edited With Introduction, Notes, and Appendices This volume of selected orations of Lysias is intended primarily for students who have never before read an Attic Orator. It is not based upon any single German edition. Yet the editor is far from laying claim to much originality. He has drawn freely from his many predecessors, and, in especial, he is indebted, on nearly every page of the notes and the appendix, to Rauchenstein and Frohberger, as will be clear to all who know the editions of these two scholars. In the Introduction, the present editor, like everyone who now writes on an Attic Orator, has found invaluable aid in the work of Blass. A list of the books to which reference is made by abbreviations will be found prefixed to the Index, and a list of editions of Lysias in Appendix B.
