Crates of Tralles

Crates of Tralles (Greek: Κράτης), an orator or rhetorician in the school of Isocrates.[1] David Ruhnken assigns to him the logoi dēmēgorikoi which Apollodorus of Athens[2] ascribes to the Academic philosopher, Crates.[3] Gilles Ménage[4] is wrong in supposing that Crates is mentioned by Lucian.[5] The person there spoken of is Critias the sculptor.

gollark: Of course, the potatOS Privacy Policy is far superior to all these ToSes which let you keep your soul.
gollark: I looked into it, and apparently their ToS is vaguely worrying, although to be fair that's... generally the case.
