Antiphon was an orator and statesman who took up rhetoric as a profession. He was a Sophist and a contemporary of Socrates . These definite assertions are, however, disputed by some historians. The problem seems to revolve round whether there was one Sophist philosopher named Antiphon who lived around this time or whether there are two, or as some experts claim, three distinct Antiphons. In what follows we shall assume that at least the orator named Antiphon was the same person as the Sophist who made the mathematical advances. This is the same line as taken in [1] while in [2] only Antiphon as an orator is discussed without reference to the philosophical or mathematical works. In [7] the hypothesis that Antiphon is one, or several different men is discussed without any definite view being preferred either way. A number of speeches which were written by Antiphon have been preserved. Three of these speeches were real speeches made by Antiphon as the prosecutor in murder trials. Twelve speeches are specimen speeches written by Antiphon for use in teaching students the skills of prosecuting and defending clients in cases. The speeches come as three collections of four; two prosecution speeches and two defence speeches for each of three different cases.

From WCD
Antiphon the Sophist , philosopher, poet and writer of divinatory literature (5c. B.C.) edit
From Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology
Of Athens, a sophist and an epic poet, Suidas, who says that he was surnamed logomageiros , and others state, that he occupied himself with the interpretation of signs. He wrote a work on the interpretation of dreams, which is referred to by Artemidorus Cicero , and others (Artemid. Oneirocr. 2.14; Cic. de Divin. 1.20, 1.51, 2.70.) He is unquestionably the same person as the Antiphon who was an opponent of Socrates , and who is mentioned by Xenophon Memorabilia 1.6.1; compare Diogenes Laertius Seneca Controv. 9), and must be distinguished from he rhetorician Antiphon of Rhamnus , as well as from the tragic poet of the same name, although he ancients themselves appear to have been doubt as to who the Antiphon mentioned by Xenophon really was.

Throughout his career Gagarin has been interested in Athenian law and the Athenian orators. In this book he seeks to show as he has already argued in GRBS 31 (1990), 27-44 and in his article on Antiphon in the 3rd edition of the OCD that one and the same Antiphon was author of the law-court speeches attributed to Antiphon (1, 5, 6), of the three Tetralogies (2, 3, 4), and of the philosophical works, particularly Truth and Concord After a short Introduction, ch. i provides an account of the sophistic movement as a background to Antiphon's career, stressing the spirit of enquiry and scepticism, and the fondness for paradoxes and challenges to traditional thinking and for competition and debate. To attribute to all the sophists a primary interest in rhetoric is unfair, but they were all interested in one of more aspects of logos , and particularly in the art of arguing on both sides of a subject and in the relationship between argument and truth. They are better regarded as humanists, who "see in human beings the one measure of knowledge and values" (p. 33), than as total relativists.

A second major merit of P.'s edition, compared with those of Diels-Kranz or Untersteiner, is the updating of the collection of texts. These are all taken from existing editions, but in some important cases, e.g. that of the Oxyrhynchus papyri which preserve parts of Antiphon's treatise 'On truth', this means a considerable advance. P. has also added some new material, of which mostly consists of parallel passages that had previously been neglected but also papyrological and epigraphical finds unknown to former editors. Thus, provided with a rich bibliography and several indexes, P.'s work will prove to be a starting-point and an indispensable resource for further research. The fact that its goal is not to establish any general thesis concerning Antiphon does not detract from this judgement; rather, the detailed, well-documented and sensible commentary and introduction that result from this reserve are further reasons for approval. As P. states in his preface, the goal of his edition is simply to present a collection and discussion of all the evidence for the life and writings of Antiphon the sophist. In what follows I will present and discuss the main parts of the work: introduction, text and translation, and commentary. I will linger on a little over the introduction, because there the general line of interpretation that P. applies in his commentary becomes apparent.

Personal Papers Alex Rosenberg On The Priority of Intellectual Property Rights, Especially in Biotechnology Here I want to advance an argument for giving intellectual property rights which are untrumpable by any other sort of considerations from human welfare. The notion that there are basic human or natural rights, which cannot be overridden no matter what the welfare-consequences of do so, is a familiar one. But no one supposes that intellectual property rights, or indeed any property rights, are among this privileged set. Moreover, that considerations from human welfare should underwrite such status for any human right is perhaps more surprising. After it all, it is to limit the writ of welfare-considerations that untrumpable rights are invoked.

Antiphon the Athenian
Oratory, Law, and Justice in the Age of the Sophists Table of Contents and Excerpt 2003 Friends of the Dallas Public Library Award
Texas Institute of Letters By Michael Gagarin
"Gagarin demonstrates persuasively that Antiphon the logographer is identical with the Antiphon who made intellectual contributions on more abstract topics." Antiphon was a fifth-century Athenian intellectual (ca. 480-411 BCE) who created the profession of speechwriting while serving as an influential and highly sought-out adviser to litigants in the Athenian courts. Three of his speeches are preserved, together with three sets of Tetralogies (four hypothetical paired speeches), whose authenticity is sometimes doubted. Fragments also survive of intellectual treatises on subjects including justice, law, and nature (physis), which are often attributed to a separate Antiphon the Sophist. Were these two Antiphons really one and the same individual, endowed with a wide-ranging mind ready to tackle most of the diverse intellectual interests of his day? Through an analysis of all these writings, this book convincingly argues that they were composed by a single individual, Antiphon the Athenian. Michael Gagarin sets close readings of individual works within a wider discussion of the fifth-century Athenian intellectual climate and the philosophical ferment known as the sophistic movement. This enables him to demonstrate the overall coherence of Antiphon's interests and writings and to show how he was a pivotal figure between the sophists and the Attic orators of the fourth century. In addition, Gagarin's argument allows us to reassess the work of the sophists as a whole, so that they can now be seen as primarily interested in

Excerpt
This study, which originated as a Princeton doctoral dissertation, explores how greed and injustice figure in selected texts from Homer to Aristotle and how these two concepts are woven into Athenian history, especially in the oligarchic episodes of the late fifth century B.C. Balot breaks new ground in exploring how a range of authors employs the concepts of greed and injustice to analyze relations within the polis and between city-states. The result is a stimulating account of the centrality and malleability of these ideas in Hellenic and, more particularly, Athenian thinking. While this study passes over many Athenian texts that might illuminate its topic and contributes more to intellectual history than to political or social history, it provides insights into the texts on which it focuses.
