Translation: A Corinthian, a rhetor, one of those ranked with
Demosthenes. Whose son he is, is not recorded.[1] He wrote (according to some) 160 speeches in all; but a more accurate figure is only 60, all of them judicial; some are public, some private. This man died, having been appointed supervisor of the Peloponnese by Antipater, after Antipater's death; Polysperchon had plotted against him.[2]

Notes:
C4 BC. See generally RE Deinarchos(1); NP Deinarchos; OCD4
Dinarchus.
[1] Other sources did record the name of his father, as either Socrates or
Sostratus.
[2] This account of his death confuses him with a Corinthian politician of the same name (RE Deinarchos(2)); see Worthington (1992) 10.
