Abstract

This paper aims to broaden our thinking about “proposals” (or “challenges”), which until now has focused on oaths and basanos. In addition to these I discuss proposals to resolve the case or an issue in the case, to go to arbitration, to produce a text and to testify in court, distinguishing between proposals that are seriously intended and those made primarily for rhetorical purposes.

Keywords: arbitration, Athens, basanos, challenge, oath
