Abstract

This article is about Antiphon of Athens (480-411 BC), whose work represents the earliest literary records that have come to us about judicial rhetoric and homicide laws. I will use the fragments and speeches of Antiphon as signs of the evidence of a continuity between Aeschylean reflection and philosophical reflection on justice, a continuity that occurs in a complex way, since enduring points of contact are inseparable from points of rupture.
