Sycophancy In Athens by John Oscar Lofberg is a historical account of the Athenian legal system during the fourth century BCE. The book focuses on the role of the sycophant, a professional accuser who brought charges against individuals in court for personal gain. Lofberg explores the social and political factors that led to the rise of sycophancy in Athens, as well as the impact it had on Athenian democracy. The author examines various legal cases and speeches from the period to provide insight into the tactics and motivations of sycophants, as well as the responses of those accused. This book offers a unique perspective on Athenian society and politics, shedding light on a little-known aspect of ancient Greek history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
