EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Isocrates (436-338 BC): Ancient Greek Rhetorician and Attic Orator" Isocrates, born in 436 BC in the ancient city of Athens, Greece, is renowned as one of the Ten Attic Orators and a significant figure in the world of ancient Greek rhetoric. This engraving, from the book "Pinacotheca Imaginum Illustrium" by Gian Vittorio de Rossi, captures the intellectual and political prowess of this influential philosopher and educator. Isocrates' contributions to the field of rhetoric were groundbreaking, as he advocated for a more natural and persuasive style of speaking, departing from the formal and rigid oratory of his contemporaries. His political and educational policies were also influential, shaping public institutions and the development of the institutional framework of ancient Athens. The engraving, produced in Spain in the 17th century, presents Isocrates in a vertical, upright position, dressed in the formal attire of the time, with a serious and contemplative expression. The black and white contrast highlights the intricacies of the engraving, showcasing the artist's skillful use of the medium. Isocrates' legacy extends beyond the political and educational spheres, as his ideas and works have influenced Western civilization, shaping the development of literature, culture, and the very fabric of Greek civilization itself. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring impact of this ancient Greek philosopher and orator, whose influence continues to resonate in the modern world.
