Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book concerns an analysis of a collection of inscriptions written in Phrygian, a nearly extinct language from the first centuries A.D. Many of these inscriptions are engraved on tombstones, and they frequently include a formula wishing harm on anyone who damages the grave. The author argues that while some of these inscriptions are borrowed from Greek, many include heretofore unknown words and phrases specific to the Phrygian language. The author examines these inscriptions with the aim of reconstructing what Phrygian sounded like and how it differed from neighboring languages. In addition to concerns over linguistics and vocabulary, the author also considers the cultural context of the inscriptions and how they might shed light on the region's history. This book will appeal to readers interested in ancient languages, particularly those who are unfamiliar with Phrygian or the history of Asia Minor during the Roman period. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
