Description:
Corax ("Korax"), along with Tisias, was one of the founders of Greek rhetoric, or sophism. It has sometimes been asserted that they are merely legendary personages. Other scholars contend that Corax and Tisias were the same person, described in one fragment as "Tisias, the Crow" (Corax is Greek for "crow.") Corax is said to have lived in Sicily in the fifth century BC. During his time, Thrasybulus, the tyrant of Syracuse, was overthrown and a democracy formed. Wikipedia
