Abstract
In many works dealing with the relationship between rhetoric and historiography, special attention has been paid to speeches delivered by prominent political figures and also to military harangues, a type of speech included among those of a deliberative nature. However, the few speeches belonging to the judicial genre have hardly attracted the interest of researchers, and this is why this study focuses on one of them from the point of view of prescriptive rhetoric, i.e. the prosecution and defence speeches delivered by Perseus and Demetrius, which is the only sample of forensic oratory in the monumental work of the Roman historian Livy.
