To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
F. Cl . Phil. 1879, pp. 413 ff. , regards Buermann' s views as more than reasonable. Philippi thinks, however, that in the general looseness of Athenian legal forms lithe matter has not been clearly presented. Other theories are mentioned in Meier & Schomann, pp. 501-502. For myself, the \ passages cited from the orators lead me to believe that concu- binage had the sanction of law. In connection with this subject, it is hardly neces- (28) sary to observe that open vice was not sanctioned by la...w. The first oration of Lysias, and especially jff20 ff, as has been noted, show that the law prescribed extreme penalties for unchastity. The same fact is stated as a law of Solon, in iPlut. Solon, 23, 2; and Dem. 59, 87 speaks of the severe pen- alties visited upon the guilty. As a further illustration of the severity with which this sin was punished, we may cite the law of Solon mentioned in Plut. Solon 23, 3, where i t is stated that a daughter or sister detected in flagrant/. , delictii? may be i sold into slavery.
