Isocrate, le Panathénaïque en son temps. Raisons probables d’un pseudo-dialogue

Abstract : If the Panathenaicus, the last great speech of Isocrates, gives relatively little space to the military news of Athens and Greece in 342-339, the position of its author himself is omnipresent and fundamental.

description Abstract : If the Panathenaicus, the last great speech of Isocrates, gives relatively little space to the military news of Athens and Greece in 342-339, the position of its author himself is omnipresent and fundamental. Isocrates must then show proof of patriotism and above all show that he remains, in Athens, the master of rhetoric par excellence. Attacked by Speusippus in 343/2, challenged by Aristotle who, in 342, was appointed tutor to Alexander, still in – posthumous – rivalry with Plato, who died in 347, Isocrates undertakes a discourse that I would describe as choral and theatrical.The Panathenaicus, a complex rather than incoherent work, is built on a metalanguage that alternates analysis and commentary on this same analysis, as well as on a false dialogue with the pro-Spartan disciple. If the oral codes are very present, they do not lead to a dialectic of the Platonic type, but rather to the silence of the master.
