Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a detailed analysis of the use of prepositions in three spheres of the Attic Greek language - official inscriptions, the forensic speeches of Isaeus, and the epideictic and private speeches of Isocrates. These three areas represent varying registers and usages of the Attic language and as such offer the author a unique view into the development of prepositions within the language. The author presents an extensive comparison of the use of prepositions in each register and sphere, excavating individual variations in prepositional use and placement over time and among authors. The author's findings will be of great interest to classicists, linguists and students of ancient Greek history and literature.
