In 403 B.C. Lysias devoted a speech for the defence of a deceived husband who was supposed to have killed his wife’s lover. The orator gives us a fairly complete picture of the reception, in law, of adultery by Athens. Lysias’argument is meant to support the thesis according to which the homicide committed by the husband would be justified by the City’s laws. He accordingly expounds the reasons of the gravity of the offence involved in adultery at that moment in the history of Athens.
