Pseudo-Demosthenes

The term Pseudo-Demosthenes collects literary works that have been handed down as works by the Athenian speaker Demosthenes , but which can be proven not to come from him.

For example, the Demosthenic speeches 46, 49 (against Timotheus ), 50 (against Polykles ), 52 (against Callippus ), 53 (against Nikostratus ), 59 (against Neaira ) and possibly 47 are attributed to the Demosthenes follower Apollodorus .
