'eypcpliou and 0'oscptVns; Schaefer, Apper. Crit. v. p. 473.) 58. KanT' Nealpas, refers to a. C. 340, but is considered spurious both by ancient and modern writers. (Dionys. d Admir. vi die.

'Ein'rciipLos, refers to B. C. 338, but is uin' questionably spurious. (Dionys. de A dmir. vi die. Demo. 23, 44; Liban. p. 6; Harpocrat. s. vc. Ai'ysiZ. 8aL and KsEpemnis; Phot. Bibl. p. 491; Suid. s. v. Aspese6E'vsjs; Bekker, A necd. p. 354; 11restermann, Quaest. Desme. ii. p. 49, &c.) Its genuineness is defended by Becker (Demiosth. als Sta/esin. u. led. ii. p. 466, &c.) and Kriuger (in Seebode's Arc/tic, i. 2, p. 277). 60. 'Ep-rriico's, is, like the former, a spurious production. (Dionys. de A dsisir. ci die. Demn.. 44; Liban. p. 6; Pollux, iii. 144; Pliot. Bib!. 1. c.; Westermaun, Qiacest. Dens. ii. p. 70, &c.) Among the lost orations of Demosthenes'the following are mentioned:-AL(P1'Xq) A a1LYOPu oucS iroVTLrL 8WpedS. (Dionys. Deinarclt. 11.) 2. KarT ME'&w'ros. (Pollux, viii. 53; Ilarpoer. s. v.

Ep. ad Ami. i. 12, who, however, in Dentostls. 57, declares it a spurious oration.) 5. n pl Top1'ro g t icaoivau "Apsrahov, was spurious according to Dionysius. (Desos/h. 57.) 6. KeTa 77Aa"80ov. (Bekker, Aneed. p. 335.) A fragment of it is probably extant in Alexand. dIe Fqigir. p. 478, ed. XWalz. 7. tIpos KpITrtev spi TOil E'vEsriascasLaTos. (Harpocrat. s. c. 'Ei'ssuo'-,upeuia, where Dionysins doubts its genuineness.) 8. 'Tsrep Ps'rTpsni, probably not a work of Demosthenes. (Suid. s.cv. "A/te.) 9. Trirp a'rsiapov 'rs -rL'rpo'nijs s pis Xapl67i3toe, belonged according to Callimachus (aip. Pleat. Bibl. p. 491) to Deinarchus. Besides the ancient and modern historians of the time of Philip and Alexande', the following works will be found useful to the student of Demosthenes: Schott, Vitae Parollelae Aris/ot. et Deities/h. Antwerp, 1603; Becker, Demostshenes als Sola/smstann und l edeer, Halle, 1816, 2 vols. live; Xesterniann, Qstestiones Detssos/hessicoe, in four parts, Leipzig, 1830-11837, Gesehichte der' Gs'iech. Be-'edlsasnkeit, ~~ 56, 57, and Bei/ace, vii. p. 297, &c.; Bihuneke, Sltudiest ouf dems Ge/iete dec Allisehet Redanec, Berlin, 1843. [L. S.] DEMO'STHENES (A-qiposrfivsms). 1. The filther of the orator. See above. 2. A Bithynian, wrote a history of his native country, of which the tenth book is quoted by Stephanus of Byzantium. (secv. Koo-ds, Mato-wAoi; comp. s. cc. Taipas, Tapoais, TEVsn0lcscs, 'AESav8psica, 'Ap'rdiC-'n; Etym. Miag. s. v. 'Hpaia.) Ho further wrote an account of the foundations of towns (ICTLUsmS), which is likewise several times quoted by Stephanus. Euphorion wrote a poem against this historian under the title of Anlsoo-Oiz'9Sc of which a fragment is still extant. (Bekker, Anecdot. p. 1383; comp. Meineke, deEephorioste,p 31.) 3. A Thracian, a Greek grammarian, who wrote according to Suidas (s. c.) a work on the ditlyrambic poets (srsppl &palAoiroiyv), a paraphrase of Homer's Iliad and of Hesiod's Theogony, and an epitome of the work of Damagetus of Heracleia. (Westermana, Quaest. Demn. iv. pp. 38, 88.) 4. Surnamed the Little (6 Juscpds), a Greek rhetorician, who is otherwise unknown; hut some fragments of his speeches are extant in B~ekkier's An~ecdote (pp. 135, 140, 168, 170, 17;2). [L. S.]
