The orations of Themistius, extant in the time of Photius (9th century), were thirty-six in number.[28] Of these, thirty-three have come down to us in Greek.[29] Two of them, however, (Orations 23 and 33, and perhaps Oration 28) are not fully preserved, and one (Oration 25) is a brief statement, not a full oration.[29] Modern editions of the Orations have thirty-four pieces, because a Latin address to Valens has been included as Oration 12.[29] It is now believed though that this Latin address is a 16th-century creation.[29] The final oration (Oration 34) was discovered as recently as 1816 by Angelo Mai in the Ambrosian Library at Milan.
