In this study of Greek and Roman history, the author addresses the limitations imposed by the available evidence, stressing the fact that there is much that the modern scholar cannot learn by consulting the ancient sources. With emphasis on the fundamental importance of asking the right questions, he challenges the special status accorded to classical texts and exposes the flaws in the traditional approach to ancient history. He even goes on to suggest alternative methods for re-constructing history.

Excerpt from Extemporary Speech in Antiquity: A Dissertation While the object of the following pages has been to consider the part played by extemporary speech in the theory and practice of the orators and rhetoricians of ancient times, it has been thought best to set the discussion in the framework of a running commentary on Greek oratory in general, in order to give to the paper some sort of unity. In case of many of the orators there are only a few' isolated references to their practice as speakers, and of some of them we can only say, after considering the evidence, what in each case was the probable method followed. Many topics which might have been investigated in connection with the main subject, necessarily have been left untouched, since a discussion of them would carry the treatment far beyond the confines of a single paper. An attempt has been made to bring the discussion into relation to modern theory and practice by means of the parallels in the foot-notes, though of necessity these have been few and short. In the notes I have endeavored to give credit to all articles from which I consciously received any suggestion; if I have in any case failed to do so, the oversight has been unintentional. Particular mention must be made of Blass's Attische Beredsamkeit, which has proved invaluable. In conclusion I wish to express my gratitude to Dr. Paul Shorey of the University of Chicago, at whose suggestion the paper was written, and to whose comments and criticism any value it may have is largely due.

Excerpt from Famous Speeches: Selected and Edited, With Introductory Notes That speaking has for some time tended to become more practical few would dispute. But there may be quite as much art in practical Speaking as in any other. An argument may be put in an almost infinite variety of ways, and yet there must always be a way which is best suited to a particular audience at a given time and place. Now that the habit of public speaking is more widely diffused than it ever was before, it is natural that variety Of methods Should also multiply. Comparison will Show how different are the modes of explana tion and illustration, of attack and defence, to which modern orators have recourse. One thing, however, is clearly dis cernible in most modern speeches, and that is what may be called their comparative concentration. Speaking is far less discursive than it was in times of ampler leisure and fewer subjects of dispute. Facts and reasons play a much larger part than rhetoric and eloquence in modern addresses, what ever the general purport of the remarks may be. SO much depends upon the temperament of the individual speaker that it is impossible to describe the character of modern oratory in a phrase or a formula. One may Observe, however, that the mental habit of assuming agreement rather than opposition, of stimulating friends rather than answering opponents, has become familiar to the contemporary politician.
