"Against Neaera" was a prosecution speech delivered by Apollodoros of Acharnae against the freedwoman Neaera. It was preserved as part of the Demosthenic corpus, though it is widely considered to be pseudo-Demosthenic, possibly written by Apollodoros himself. The speech was part of the prosecution of Neaera, a hetaera who was accused of unlawfully marrying an Athenian citizen. Though the speech claims that the case was brought for personal reasons, the date of the prosecution has led scholars to believe that it was in fact politically motivated. In common with most legal cases from ancient Athens, the outcome is unknown.

  • "Against Neaera" was a prosecution speech delivered by Apollodoros of Acharnae against the freedwoman Neaera. It was preserved as part of the Demosthenic corpus, though it is widely considered to be pseudo-Demosthenic, possibly written by Apollodoros himself. The speech was part of the prosecution of Neaera, a hetaera who was accused of unlawfully marrying an Athenian citizen. Though the speech claims that the case was brought for personal reasons, the date of the prosecution has led scholars to believe that it was in fact politically motivated. In common with most legal cases from ancient Athens, the outcome is unknown. The speech is important to modern scholars as the best extant biography of a woman from the classical period of ancient Greece, the most extensive surviving source on prostitution in ancient Greece, and the source of Athenian laws on adultery and citizenship which do not otherwise survive. However, it only began to receive significant attention from scholars in the 1990s, as before that period the focus of the speech on prostitution was considered to be inappropriate. (en)
  • O Discurso Contra Neaera foi um discurso de acusação proferido pelo Apolodoro de Acharne contra a liberta de nome Neaera ou Neera. Ele foi preservado como parte do corpus demostênicos, que é amplamente considerado pseudo-Demostênico, possivelmente escrito pelo próprio Apolodoro . O discurso foi parte do julgamento público de Neaera ou Neera, uma hetaira que foi acusada de ilegalmente se casar com um cidadão Ateniense. Embora o discurso afirma que o caso foi levado por motivos pessoais, devido a data em que o julgamento público aconteceu levou os estudiosos a acreditar que na verdade foi motivado politicamente . Em comum com a maioria dos casos legais da antiga Atenas, o resultado é desconhecido. O discurso é considerado importante para os estudiosos modernos, pois é tido como a melhor biografia existente de uma mulher do período clássico da Grécia antiga e a mais extensa fonte sobrevivente sobre a prostituição na Grécia antiga, tambem sobre as leis sobre o adultério e a cidadania, que de outra forma não sobreviveram aos dias de hoje. No entanto, ele só começou a receber atenção significativa de estudiosos, nos anos de 1990, pois antes desse período o foco do discurso sobre a prostituição era considerado inapropriado. (pt)
