“It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly. Do not mistake activity for achievement.”
– Isocrates
An exceedingly rare printing of Isocrates’ ‘Orations and Letters’. Isocrates was a 4th-century BC Greek orator and rhetorician, whose philosophical thought helped influence various Panegyrics of the Renaissance. His orations and letters were written on a variety of topics:
to influence various rulers on how to lead their kingdom
on rulers of Salamis on Cyprus
on importance of good education
on living in peace with others
This 1621 edition is unique in that it includes the original Greek text with the Latin translation directly under each line of Greek. It also, like many similar editions, includes Plutarch’s ‘Life of Isocrates’.
