Greek display:    
Headword: Diathesis
Adler number: delta,558
Translated headword: disposition
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Isocrates [sc. uses this word] to mean sale.[1] But Antiphon [does so] to mean arrangement.[2] And [the cognate verb] diaqe/sqai relates to arranging. But diaqe/sqai can also substitute for sunqe/sqai, as Hyperides and Demosthenes [illustrate].[3]
Greek Original:
Diathesis: Isokratês anti tou prasis. Antiphôn de anti tou dioikêsis. kai diathesthai epi tou dioikêsai. paralambanetai de to diathesthai kai anti tou sunthesthai, hôs Huperidês kai Dêmosthenês.
Notes:
Abridged from Harpokration s.v.; also in Photius.
[1] Isocrates 11.14 (web address 1).
[2] Variously attributed to Antiphon the orator (fr. 85 Sauppe) and his namesake the sophist (87 B 63 D.-K.).
[3] So the transmitted text of the final three words, Hyperides "kai" Demosthenes. But comparison with Harpokration shows that "and" [kai/] should be "against" [kata/], i.e. Hyper. Dem. 1.
