PKEFACE.

THISlittle book is intended as a help towards the study of

an author at present too much neglected in English

schools and colleges. Mr. J. E. Sandys has said of Isocrates

that " there is, perhaps, no Attic author who is equal to him in

simplicity of constructions, in purity of language, and trans-

parency of style. " It is this," he adds, " that renders him pecu-

liarly suitable as a stepping-stone to the less easy prose of the

other Attic orators, and of Aristotle, Plato, and Thucydides;

it is this that has made him as favourite a subject in the schools

of Germany as he was in our English schools during the

sixteenth and seventeenth centuries." Yet Mr. Sandys' edition

of the Ad Demonicum and Panegyricus is (so far as I know)

the only selection that has been hitherto made from the

twenty-one orations of this author. ^

Professor Jebb has said with regard to a portion (^^^ 133-159)

of the Panegyticm that " it contributes to the history of Greece

a vivid picture of the barbarian world in contact with Hellas at

a critical moment." These words apply with equal force to the

oration I have selected—the Evwjoras. The text adopted is

that of Blass's revision of Benseler in the Teubner series. I

' Professor Jebb has published a vohuno of aolecti(Jiis from tlie Attic

orators.

liave noted, however, in an appendix, all deviations from the

more conservative text of the Ziirich editors.

For the notes I am mainly indebted to the following works:

Dr. 0. Schneider's Isocrates Ausgewdhlte lieden; Professor R.

C. Jebb's Attic Orators ; Dr. F. Blass's Isokrates und Isaios ; and

Mr. J. E. Sandys' Ad Demonicum and Panegyricus.

Reference is made to Curtius' Greek Grammar; Farrar's

Greek Syntax' ; and Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses.

INTEODUCTION.

A N account of the life, works, and style of Isocrates will be

^ found in the following books :—Jebb's Attic Oratoi's

MahaflPy's Greek Classical Literature ; Blass's Attische Bered-

samkeit, vol. ii. ; Encyclopcedia Britannica, art. " Isocrates " (written

by Professor Jebb).

The Evagoras (or. ix.), the To JSicocles (or. ii.), and the Nicocles

(or. iii.), may be conveniently classed together as the three

Cyprian orations of Isocrates. The To Demomcus (or. i.) is

ascribed by Blass to a pupil of Isocrates.

Evagoras began to reign about 411 B.C., assisted Conon at

Cnidus in 394, was engaged in a ten years' war with Persia,

probably from 390 to 380, and was assassinated probabl}- in

378. His son Nicocles succeeded him in that year, and reigned

till about 360. The friendship of Evagoras and Conon was

transmitted to their sons Nicocles and Timotheus. During the

years 378-370, Timotheus Avas engaged in organising the new

Confederation, both in the Archipelago and in the Ionic Sea, and

Isocrates (known to Timotheus since about 384) accompanied

him as companion and secretary, and at this time may have

10 INTKODUCTION.

begun the friendship of Isocrates with the royal house of

Salamis.

The oration

ToNlcocles was written soon after the accession

of Nicocles, probably in 376. The Nicocles must have been

written after the To Nicocles, and several years after the acces-

sion of that monarch. The Evagoras, also, must have been

written at a considerable, but not a long, interval from the

assassination of Evagoras. It may be dated approximately 370.

Isocrates speaks of the Evagoras as the first example of an

encomium on a contemporary ; it may be classed with his own

encomium on Timotheus in the AnfAclosis, the Agesilaus of

Xenophon, and the encomia in honour of Mausolus,

The researches of recent historians have fully justified the

lanofuaofe of Isocrates in this oration. Mr. Grote^ describes

Evagoras as " a Greek of pre-eminent vigour and intelligence,

remarkably free from the vices usual in Grecian despots, and

forming a strong contrast in this respect with his contemporary

Dionysius, whose military energy is so deeply stained by crime

and violence."

" In this age," writes Professor Ernst Curtius,^ " poor m

men and in deeds, no other figure is to be met with so attrac-

tive as that of Evagoras. While elsewhere we find nothing but

reaction and decay in the public life of both Hellenes and

barbarians, Cyprus is a land of a hopeful progress, entirely

associated with the lofty efforts of this one man. He had with

heroic vigour not only recovered the princely power of which

his house had been despoiled, but he had also begun to make a

Greek land of the whole island, which, after the days of Cimon,

INTRODUCTION. 1

had been flooded by Phoenicians, and completely estranged from

the Hellenes ; so that the Cyprians now thoroughly detached

themselves from the East, would marry none but Greek wives,

and outvied one another in their devotion to Grreek manners,

culture, and art.^ Evagoras looked upon himself personally as

an Athenian, because he sprung from the Teukridae, whose

home was in the island of Salamis. . . . and he delighted in

connecting himself in any way with Athens, as with the luminous

prototype of that culture, the spread of which he now regarded

as the task of his life."

The Evagoras is in every respect—in the disposition of the

parts, in the choice of words, and in the structure of the periods

—a good example of the style of Isocrates at his best. Blass

draws attention to the Homeric tone of §§ 62-63, and to the

accumulation of antitheses in §§ 44-46. If, on the one hand,

Evagoras is worthy of this encomium, on the other hand, this

encomium is worthy of Evagoras.

Isocrates acknowledges {Aiitid., 40) that he received presents

from Nicocles, but the statement that he received 30 talents

for the Evagoras (" Hypoth." Evag.) is probably an exag-

geration.

NOTES.

§§1—11. Proem. Great men would be more gratified by an

encomium in celebration of their achievements than by the most

magnificent funeral obsequies. Such encomia, however, have not

hitherto been attempted, since men are unwilling to recognise the

merit of their contemporaries. An attempt at such a composition

will be made with reference to Evagoras, great as are the difficulties

with which the orator has to contend as compared with the poet.

cf. Sandys' note on IV. 11, p.^rpLOT-qra';. The secondary tenses of the

indicative are used in final clauses after tVa, to denote that the end

or object is dependent upon some unfulfilled condition, and, therefore,

is not, or was not, attained. This construction is peculiar to Attic

Greek. Goodwin, § 44, 3. (.vXoyrifTovTai, future middle in passive

that Evagoras began to reign "about 411 or 410 b.c." (411 b.c. is

probably the latest year we can take), justly observing that "he

Professor Jebb remarks [Attic Orators, II. p. 113):—"Perhaps the

most striking passage in the memoir is that which describes how

commerce, arts, letters, humane intercourse with the outer world,

having become extinct under the rule of the barbarian, speedily

sprang into a new life under the rule of the Hellene."

§§ 57 med. to 65. The Cyprian War.

The question of the chronology of the Cyprian War is closely

connected with that of the date of publication of the Panegyricus.

In that oration Isoc. makes several allusions to the war of Evagoras

against Persia (See Or. IV., §§ 124; 134, 135; 141; 153, 154;

161, 162; 179). The war lasted ten years (Isoc. Evag., § 64;

Died., XV. 8. 9). In the course of it Evagoras was defeated at sea

by the Persians ; was soon afterwards blockaded in Salamis ; and,

after a brave resistance, capitulated. Isoc. in Or. IV. § 141, alludes

to the sea-fight ; in § 134 he speaks of the blockade as existing; and

in § 141 he says that the king of Persia has now wasted six years

in the war; which apparently means six years from the navalengagement in 386-5 b.c. (Blass, Isokrates und Isaios, p. 231),

though some take it to mean six years from the beginning of the war

(Jebb, Attic Orators, II., p. 159). We learn from Diodorus that the

war lasted ten years (XV. 8. 9) ; that the sea-fight took place in 886

(XV. 2—4), and that Evag. capitulated in 385 (XV. 8). Now the

date of the rancgi/ricits is determined by § 126, where it is said that

the Spartans are besieging Olynthus and Phlius. Olynthus was

besieged in 383 b.c, Phlius early in 380; both fell towards the close

of 379. The speech cannot, then, have been published before 880,

or after 379. Since 380 b.c. was the first year of the hundredth

" lutrod." to Pan., p. XLIII. ; Reinhardt " Introd." to 5th edition of

Eauchenstein's Pan. and Areop. ; Mahafiy, History of Classical Greek

Literature, II., p. 226. I see, however, from Professor Mahaffy's

note, that Blass, Attische Beredsamheit, IV., 350, now inclines to

884 B.C.). It thus appears that Isoc. in 380 speaks of the Cyprian

War as still going on, whilst Diodorus states that it ended in 385,

both stating that it lasted ten years.

W. Engel (De temjwre quo divulgatus sit Isoc. Panegyr., Berlin,

1861) relying on the statement of Diodorus (XV. 8) that the war

ended in 385, tries to reconcile Diodorus with Isoc. by supposing

that, with the exception of §§ 125—132, which allude to 380 e.g.,

the Panegyricus was published in 385, just before Evag. capitulated.

The " six years " of Isoc. would then be 391^—385, during which the

war was actively prosecuted, 394—391 having been years chiefly

of preparation. Engel's argument, from the tone of §§ 125—132,is ably met by Reinhardt [I.e., pp. 32, 33), Jebb {I.e., p. 151), and

Blass [I.e., pp. 230, 231). It is sufficient to say here that the

argument from chronology is discredited by the self-contradiction of

Diodorus, who in XIV. 98 states that the first preparations for the

war were made in 390 (Reinhardt, I.e., p. 33). Engel's view has

been adopted by Rauchenstein and Curtius, the latter giving the

following dates : Subjection of the Cyprian principalities 394—1

Persian war without important events 391—387; Evagoras at the

height of his power, loss of the fleet, and capitulation 386—5 {History

of Greece, trans, by Ward IV., p. 242).

CHnton {F. H., vol. II., p. 279, appendix c. 12 on the Cyprian

War) rejecting the chronology of Diodorus, and dating the entire

Panegyricus in 380, believes that the war began in 385, in which year

Evagoras suff'ered his defeat at sea, and ended in 376. The " six

years " of Isoc. are then 385—380. The blockade of Salamis must

have followed close upon the defeat, and we must suppose a resist.

elusion is drawn mainly from his interpretation of Pan., § 141, where

he explains Tr/DoSeSuo-Tu'x^Kcv as implying that this engagement was

the '-'first actioQ of the war "; it should, however, rather be rendered

"

Hasalready sustained a defeat " (Sandys and Benseler, ad. loc).

Clinton evades the necessity of contradicting Xenophon by represent-

ing the two Athenian expeditions sent to assist Evag. in Cyprus,

first in 390 b.c. (Xen., Hell, IV. 8, 24), next in 388 b.c. (Xen., Hell.,

V. 1, 10), as relating to "hostile measures before the war began."

Clinton's view is adopted by Jebb {I.e., p. 159) and by Schneider

(note on Evag., § 64).

[Benseler (note on Pan., § 141) quotes Diodor., XV. 9, as

authority for the statement that the war ended in 376 (!)].

The view which I have adop'ued is that of Grote, Sandys, and

Blass, who consider that the war began in 390, and ended in 380.

The " six years " are to be reckoned from 38^, when Artaxerxes

began active operations against Evagoras, and the latter was

defeated in the sea-fight. (Professor Jebb has shown that Grote's

alternative hypothesis—that the " six years " are to be dated from the

peace of Antalcidas—is untenable.)

Evagoras seems to have been forced into war by the Persians

(^Evag., § 58, Trpos Sc tovtov outws c/c ttoXXov TrcpiScws cf^f, ware

§ 62, i-n-ei^rj rjvayKda-Or] TroXe/Aetv). Evagoras, at first successful,

worsted and humbled Amathus, Kitium, and Soli, which cities,

under Agyris, adhered to Artaxerxes, attacked the Phoenicians on

the mainland, took Tyre, and induced some of the Cilician towns to

revolt {Evag., § 61, 62; Diodorus, XIV. 98; Ephorus, Fnig. 134).

He received powerful aid from Akoris, the native and independent

king in Egypt, and from Chabrias, and the force sent by the

Athenians. The Athenians, from gratitude to Evag. for his protec-

tion to Conofl, twice sent a squadron to his assistance, although the

alliance was an inconvenient one. See Xen., PJeiL, IV. 8, 24 (b.c.

390), V. 1, 10 (B.C. 388), Lysias, XIX. 21—23, Cornelius Xepos,

§ 162). In 38| Evagoras, having previously gained a battle on land,

attacked the Persian fleet at Kitium, and, after a hard-fought contest,

was completely defeated and blockaded in Salamis (Diodor., XV. 4).

He held out until 380 or 379, still helped by Akoris ; while Tyre and

several towns in Cilicia also continued in revolt against Artaxerxes

(Isoc, Pan., § 161). The long resistance of Evagoras may be partly

accounted for by the mutinous disposition of Persia's Greek con-

tingents, and by the dissensions of the Persian commanders Tiribazus

and Orontes (Isoc, Pan., § 153, rov<; fxeO'avrwv ei? Ki;7rpov

The Persians, wearied by his obstinate resistance, acceded to his

propositions for peace, consenting to leave him in full possession of

Salamis, under payment of a stipulated tribute, Diodorus (XV. 8, 9)

says that Evag. broke off the negotiations, because the Persians

inserted in the convention the words" like a slave to his master,"

and only renewed them on the offensive phrase being withdrawn.

Mr. Grote regards this anecdote as no way improbable, but is

surprised at the omission of "so choice a morsel for the panegyrist"

by Isoc

Mr, Sandys has the following note on Pa7i., § 134 : " The lost

histories of Callisthenes would doubtless have thrown the fullest

light upon the events of this war. It so happens, however, that an

abstract of an account of it, by Theopompus, was made by Photius

(the learned patriarch of Constantinople in cent. 9, a.d.), Bibl. Cod.,

176, p. 120, Bekker. This abstract proves that the war was begun

before the peace of Antalcidas, was not vigorously waged till after

that peace, and was apparently not concluded until the accession of

Nectanebis I. to the throne of Egypt, an event which cannot be fixed

with certainty. Theopomp., Frag. Ill, ed. Miiller (part of a summary

On the subject of the hiatus in Isoc. see Sandys' Introduction to Ad

passages in which alteration is impossible raises considerable doubts

as to the propriety of altering the MS. reading where such alteration
