Editing Antiphon (orator) (section)

== Contribution ==
Antiphon’s practical and philosophical pursuits resulted in useful advice regarding litigation and forensic tactics, as well as creative intellectual studies in the dramatic format of trials, like the Tetralogies. Most significantly, his main contribution was writing forensic speeches for real-world applications, which became a significant cultural institution in fourth-century Greece and beyond. The great theoretical works of orators like Corax, [[Tisias]], [[Gorgias]], and others were turned into practical use and largely impacted the intellectual lives of many Athenians.<ref name=":0" /> Antiphon was the innovator of putting intellectual knowledge into legal use.
