These speeches cover a wide range of topics, including legal cases, political debates, and personal disputes. The book is divided into three sections, with the first section featuring speeches related to legal cases. These speeches cover topics such as murder, theft, and assault, and provide insight into the legal system in Athens during Lysias' time. The second section of the book includes speeches related to political debates, including speeches made during the Peloponnesian War and speeches made in support of democracy. The final section of the book features speeches related to personal disputes, including speeches made during inheritance disputes and speeches made in defense of individuals accused of crimes.

Overall, Lysias: Selected Speeches provides readers with a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Athens, offering a unique perspective on the legal, political, and social issues of the time.
