Labdakos to Lethe Leto to Lysizonos
(458?-380 BCE) An Athenian orator.
Lysias was born in the city of Athens but studied in Syracuse on the island of Sicily; after his family’s business was confiscated during the oppressive reign of the Thirty Tyrants in Athens he began to write speeches for litigants and became successful and respected; it is believed that he wrote more than two hundred speeches but only thirty two survive.
