Synopsis
Excerpt from Locative Expressions in the Attic Orators: A Dissertation Accepted by the Board of University Studies of Johns Hopkins University for the Degre of Doctor of Philosophy
The various statements that have appeared regarding the use made of the locative adverb in proper names are unsatisfactory and vague, not to say misleading.1 The uncertainty that has been felt regarding it is an inheritance from antiquity itself, and though the questions involved are of sufficient importance to repay con sideration no systematic effort seems to have been made to bring together the material necessary for the drawing of safe and reason ably certain conclusions.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the use of proper names as locative adverbs in the Attic orators. Locative adverbs are words that denote location and often correspond to prepositional phrases introduced by the preposition 'at' in English. The author finds that proper names can appear with three locative endings (-ΠΠ, -Πε, and -Πεν) and as datives used as locative adverbs. Orators like Lysias and Isocrates favor the locative and use these forms liberally. The prevalent view among later writers, however, is that such forms are not as refined as the corresponding prepositional phrase. Despite this, the author presents evidence that shows that the locative and the prepositional phrase coexist for a long time before the prepositional phrase ultimately becomes the standard form. 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. Seller Inventory # 9781332345731_0
