Excerpt from A Comparative Study in Selected Chapters in the Syntax of Isaeus, Isocrates and the Attic Psephismata Preceding 300 B. C: A Dissertation
The orators selected for this comparison are Isaeus and Isocrates. The former deals chiefly with inheritance cases and is the most formal and the most practical of the ora tors. Isocrates, on the other hand, is the most elaborate and the most rhetorical of the canon, and is farthest remo ved from the influence of the courts which he professed to despisefi We should naturally expect to find in the for mer a narrower range of constructions and a greater simi larity to the syntax of the decrees. The latter is less of a practical lawyer, but is rather an idealist amd his range of syntactical constructions should furnish an interesting contrast to the narrower sphere of the more formal com position. In this study it is our intention to discover and set forth as far as possible the points of comparison and contrast in these different spheres.

Paperback. Zustand: 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.
