XXXVII. Theodectes 1. From Andronicus of Rhodes鈥 index to Aristotle: Collection from Theodectes鈥 treatise in book 1. From Hesychius鈥 index: Collection from Theodectes鈥 treatise in book 3. From an index of books found in Rodes: Book 4 contains excerpts from Theodektes鈥 treatise.
2. Suda s.v.: Theodectes son of Aristander, from Phaselis in Lycia, a rhetorician who later turned to tragedy, pupil of Platon, Isocrates and Aristotle. During the 107th Olympiad [1] he, Naucrates of Erythrae, the orator Isocrates of Apollonia and Theopompos gave a funeral speech for Mausolus on invitation of his wife Artemisia. And he won, having gained the most admiration through the tragedy he recited; according to others, however, it was Theopompus who received the first prize. He directed 50 theater pieces. He dies in Athens at the age of 41, when his father was still alive. He also wrote a treatise on rhetoric in verses and some other works in prose. Theodectes of Phaselis, rhetorician, son of the earler. He wrote a praise of Alexander of Epirus, a historical dissertation, non-Greek customs, a rhetorical treatise in seven books and many other dissertations. [1] Precisely, in 353 BC.
The words 鈥楬e dies in Athens at the age of 41, when his father was still alive鈥 should likely be moved into the Vita of the other Theodectes in such a way as to come right after the words 鈥榮on of the former.鈥 It can be proven in some way that this second Theodectes was connected through Aristotle鈥檚 instruction with Alexander the Great and that he was the author of those Theodectian works that were edited by Aristotle: cf. Anzeiger der Wiener Akademie der Wiss. 1939 Nr. XVII鈥揦IX 62 f. After Sauppe (Or. Att. II p. 247) his fragments were gathered by V. Rose Aristotelis fragmenta 114 f. The latter omits 鈥 intentionally, it seems 鈥 those we find in Georgius Pletho VW VI 585 (Sauppe fr. 3.2); about fragment 130 R. Lehnert p. 80 has some legitimate doubts.
On the father see Stephanus Byz. s. v. Phaselis, who testifies to 鈥榬hetorical speeches with 21 [the mss. read 鈥榓nd鈥橾 hexameter verses.鈥 Sauppe ibid. puts together a very few fragments of a demonstrative speech titled Law and of an apology of Socrates. On the rhetorical style of his tragedies see below, Anonym. 51 n.
