Notes on the current edition

Against Demosthenes

1. Demosthenes had merely said: “Let him be the son of Zeus and Poseidon too if he likes.” Cf. Hyp. 5 col. 31 .
2. Athens , unlike most Greek cities, refused to obey Alexander's order for the restoration of exiles (cf. note on Din. 1.81 ). Callimedon, a politician with pro-Macedonian sympathies, nicknamed the Crab, is mentioned several times by Plutarch (e.g. Plut. Dem. 27 ).
