Isokrates was influenced by the Sophists and Sokrates (Socrates) and, according to Plato, was destined for greatness either as an orator or a philosopher; he was a proponent of a united Greece which was an impossible dream; his influence was widespread and his pupils came from all over the Greek world; he was eloquent and respected; twenty-one of his discourses and nine of his letters survive to this day.
His name literally means, Equal-Rights.
