ЛЕКСИКАЛНО-СЕМАНТИЧНО ПРОУЧВАНЕ НА ГРЪЦКИТЕ НАД- ПИСИ ОТ ЗАПАДНОПОНТИЙСКИТЕ КОЛОНИИ В БЪЛГАРСКИТЕ ЗЕМИ (VI в. пр.н.е. – III в. от н.е.) Старогръцките надписи от Дионисополис, Одесос, Месамбрия, Анхиало и Аполония предоставят интересен материал за изследване на лексиката на старогръцкия език в региона през Античността. Първо по рода си, това проучване откроява неологизми, лексеми с ново лексическо значение и регионализми. В словника, в перифрастичните конструкции и в сло- вообразуването се забелязват характерните особености на следкласическия гръцки език, но канцелариите на някои от колониите използват специфична административна терминология. Езикът на изследваните епиграфски паметници отдава предпочитание на гръцките лексиче- ски ресурси и на калкиране в контакта си с латинския език, демонстрирайки по този начин строг консерватизъм. Mirena Slavova. GREEK INSCRIPTIONS FROM WEST PONTIC COLONIES IN BUL- GARIA (VI cеnt. B.C.–ІІІ сent. A.D.): A LEXICAL AND SEMANTIC STUDY The Greek inscriptions of Dionysopolis, Odessos, Messambria, Anchialos and Apollonia give suffi cient material for a lexical study of the Greek language in this area, which has not been car- ried out so far. They contain a lot of semantic peculiarities such as neologisms, new meanings, and 5 localisms. The Greek language written in these colonies shows typical Hellenistic features in its vocabulary, periphrastical constructions, and word formation. Nevertheless, some colonies have their own Kanzleisprache and specifi c worship terminology. Last but not least, the language of the epigraphical monuments in question prefers Greek lexical resources and/or loan translation, thus demonstrating a strong conservatism in the borrowing of Latin words during the Roman period. 6 1. ПРОЛЕГОМЕНА Когато четем гръцки надписи, често не можем да се избавим от чувство- то, че макар да не се препъваме в текста, нещо все пак ни убягва. Ако чест- но си признаем, че значението на думи, които иначе знаем, в случая ни се изплъзва, и отворим академичните речници и особено техните Supplementa, бихме могли донякъде да се справим. Но само донякъде. Защото или лексе- мата липсва, или значението и референциите са неточни. Причината е в това, че старогръцката лексикология трудно преодолява пропастта мeжду литературно и епиграфски и/или папирологично засвиде- телствания старогръцки словник. Първо, защото литературните текстове са £ известни много по-дълго време, отколкото другите. Второ, защото изданията на епиграфски и па- пирусни паметници понякога не са леснодостъпни. И трето, но не по важ- ност – защото тези паметници са трудноразбираеми заради реалиите, скрити зад текста, и заради спецификата на административния и религиозния език, който изучаваме – като в омагьосан кръг – пак в контекста на същите тези надписи и папируси. Лексикографските изследвания на епиграфските паметници, макар и по- малко от граматическите par excellence – тези на фонологията, морфология- та и синтаксиса, – имат своя традиция в класическата филология. Някои от тях третират словника на група паметници като това на Сърлс (Н. М. Searles. A Lexicographical Study of the Greek Inscriptions. Studies in Classical Philology. Vol. II. Chicago, 1898) или една ранна работа на Льожьон (M. Lejeune. Observations sur la langue des actes d’affranchissements Delphiques. Paris. 1940). Други си поставят амбициозната задача да хвърлят мост между литературния и епиграфския грецитет от една епоха като работата на Фавр (C. Favre. Thesaurus verborum quae in titulis ionicis leguntur, cum Herodoteo sermone comparatus. Diss. Freiburg, 1914). Трети се занимават с конкретни лексикологични и семантични проблеми. Някои от тях са ономосиологични като проучването на Пекари върху думите за статуи в малоазийските над- писи: Th. Pekary. Statuen in Kleinasiatischen Inschriften. Studien zur Religion und Kultur Kleinasiens (Festschrift für Fr. K. Dörner zum 65. Geburtstag am 28. Februar 1976), hrsg. von S. Şahin, E. Schwertheim, J. Wagner. Leiden. 1978, 727–744, а други изследват значението на отделни лексеми. Тук трябва да се посочат лексикографските приноси на А. Вилхелм и Ж. и Л. Робер в мно- гобройните им монографии и статии, които могат да се проследят по изда- нията A. Wilhelm. Akademieschriften zur griechischen Inschriftenkunde (1895– 1951). Leipzig, 1974 и L. Robert. Opera Minora Selecta. Vol. IV. Paris, 1974. Bibliographie et rapports sur les cours et travaux. 7 Макар че гръцките надписи от българските земи са издадени от Г. Ми- хайлов в петте тома на IGBulg, тяхната лексика не е получила все още пола- гащото £ се място в академичните лексикографски пособия. Нещо повече, според последното издание на LSJ 1996 корпусът на Михайлов е издаден в Букурещ, а не в София. Словното богатство на тези надписи не е и било обект на самостоятелно проучване. Самият Г. Михайлов, вероятно воден от гореспоменатите мотиви, пише в предговора на IGBulg ІІІ, 2 за планираната от него по-нататъшна работа върху надписите: „... et erit non index verborum, sed lexicon“. Настоящото проучване е опит в тази посока. То обхваща надписите от гръцките колонии в българските земи до III в. от н.е. Те бяха избрани както от желание за обозримост на материала, така и защото черноморските апойкии са най-старите центрове на елинизма у нас. Що се отнася до хронологическото ограничение, то е поставено, за да се отграничат късните и християнските надписи, които имат своя лексикална специфика. От така оформилия се корпус са изключени и метрическите тек- стове, чиято лексика вече е била обект на изследване от Г. Михайлов – Г. Ми- хайлов. Гръцките епиграми от българските земи. – Годишник на Софийския университет. Историко-филологически факултет. Т. 39, 1942–1943; Т. 40, 1943–1944; Т. 48, 1952–1953. Работата си поставя за цел: 1. Да актуализира, подреди и обогати знанието за лексиката на гръцките надписи от черноморските колонии и да допринесе за изработването на реч- ник на епиграфските паметници от българските земи. 2. Да установи спецификата на грецитета, в частност – на семантиката и словообразуването, – в такива стари

  • Greek Grammar in Greek
    Greek Grammar in Greek William S. Annis Scholiastae.org∗ February 5, 2012 Sometimes it would be nice to discuss grammar without having to drop back to our native language, so I’ve made a collection of Greek grammatical vocabulary. My primary source is E. Dickey’s Ancient Greek Scholarship. Over more than a millennium of literary scholarship in the ancient world has resulted in a vast and somewhat redundant vocabulary for many corners of grammar. Since my goal is to make it possible to produce Greek rather than to provide a guide to ancient scholarship — for which Dickey’s book is the best guide — I have left out a lot of duplicate terminology. In general I tried to pick the word that appears to inspire the Latin, and thus the modern, grammatical vocabulary. I also occasionally checked to see what Modern Greek uses for a term. Parts of Speech The Greeks divided up the parts of speech a little differently, but for the most part we’ve inherited their division. • μέρος λόγου “part of speech” • ὄνομα, τό “noun” • ἐπίθετον “adjective” (in ancient grammar considered a kind of noun) • ῥῆμα, τό “verb” • μετοχή, ἡ “participle” (which we now think of as part of the verb) • ἄρθρον, τό “article” and also relative pronoun in the scholia • ἀντωνυμία, ἡ “pronoun” { ἀναφορική “relative” { δεικτική “demonstrative” { κτητική “possessive,” i.e., ἐμός, σός, κτλ. • πρόθεσις, ἡ “preposition” ∗This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.

  • Balkan Insights Into the Syntax of *M in Indo-European
    Balkan Insights into the Syntax of *m in Indo-European Brian D. Joseph The Ohio State University Abstract: Proto-Indo-European had two sentential negation markers, *m , used in prohibitions (negative commands) and *ne/n , used in other sentence-types (e.g. indicative mood statements, subjunctive clauses, etc.). A survey of the reflexes of *m across the family reveals other functions for it, e.g. word-formation, elliptical negation, etc. Interestingly, one function, independent occurrence as a one-word prohibitive utterance (like English Don’t!) is restricted just to Indo- European languages of the Balkans, specifically Albanian, Post- Classical (particularly Modern) Greek, and Romany. The Romany development is a relatively recent phenomenon, resulting from language contact, but the history of the Albanian and later Greek developments is less clear. Various explanations for this apparent Balkan innovation are explored here, with particular attention to what they say about the range of uses reconstructible for *m in Proto- Indo-European. Author’s address: Department of Linguistics 222 Oxley Hall The Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio USA 43210-1298 ([email protected]) Balkan Insights into the Syntax of *m in Indo-European Brian D. Joseph The Ohio State University 1. Introduction For all the fact that several of the Indo-European languages found in the Balkan peninsula in the Medieval period (roughly post-600AD), specifically Albanian, Greek, Romany, Rumanian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, and (southeastern dialects of) Serbian, offer many developments of great significance for students of historical linguistics in general and of language contact in particular due to the striking structural convergences and extensive borrowings they show that have formed the prototype for the notion “Sprachbund”1, this phase in the history and prehistory of these languages has played a relatively insignifcant role in Indo-European linguistics.

  • The Hebrew Participle and Stative in Typological Perspective1
    Journal of Northwest Semitic Languages 34/1 (2008), pp. 1-19 John Cook (Asbury Theological Seminary) THE HEBREW PARTICIPLE AND STATIVE IN TYPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE1 ABSTRACT The Biblical Hebrew participle and stative forms have long been recognized as “double-natured” or “intermediate” forms between the nominal and verbal systems (Andersen & Forbes 2007; Dyk 1994; Gordon 1982; Kahan 1889; Sellin 1889). Attention has been drawn to the relationship between these forms and the Hebrew verbal system by scholars who see the participle and the stative as integral parts of the finite tense-aspect-mood system in Biblical Hebrew (e.g., Hoftijzer 1991; Joosten 1989, 2002). I examine these forms in light of typological data on intransitive predication and adjectives and conclude that, while they have both nominal and verbal characteristics, they should be classified as adjectives. I conclude with implications for understanding the Biblical Hebrew verbal system. 1. PARTICIPLE, STATIVE, AND THE CLASS OF ADJECTIVE The grammatical classification of the Biblical Hebrew participle and stative forms is made difficult by its perceived “double nature” (Doppelnatur), as it was termed in two late nineteenth-century studies (Kahan 1889; Sellin 1889). This label was meant to convey that the participle and stative forms in Biblical Hebrew at times act like nouns and in other instances like verbs. More recent studies have followed Gordon (1982) in describing the Biblical Hebrew participle and stative as “intermediate” forms, in contrast to Modern Hebrew, in which the participle is clearly either a noun or a verb. These recent studies have focused on semantic or syntactic means of distinguishing the various meanings or functions of this intermediate form.

  • Greece in Modern Times (An Annotated Bibliography of Works Published in English in 22 Academic Disciplines During the Twentieth Century)
    Published in: S. Constantinidis (ed.) Greece in Modern Times (An Annotated Bibliography of Works Published in English in 22 Academic Disciplines During the Twentieth Century). Lanham, MD: Scarecrow Press (1999), pp. 441-474. Selected Titles on Language and Linguistics Prepared by Brian D. Joseph, The Ohio State University INTRODUCTION This bibliography as a whole has as its main focus Greece of the twentieth century. As far as the Greek language and its study, i.e. the field of Greek linguistics, are concerned, however, there is nothing particularly special about the twentieth century. To be sure, the current century has witnessed a number of changes in the Greek language, mostly in the area of its lexical resources as Greek has borrowed, adapted, and absorbed large numbers first of French words and more recently of English words. However, the essential character of Modern Greek, as opposed to significantly earlier stages of the language such as the Greek of the New Testament or Ancient Greek, was formed by no later than the seventeenth century, and most likely even earlier. In surveying the literature produced over the past forty to sixty years on Modern Greek per se, therefore, one must necessarily take into account works that deal with pre-twentieth century Greek. Indeed, it can be argued that Modern Greek is closer structurally to early Post-Classical Greek than the latter is to Classical Greek. Thus some works dealing with Post-Classical Greek, especially as it illuminates the nature of the modern language — regional dialect variants included — have been selected for this bibliography, as have a few general overviews of the history of Greek from Classical or even pre-Classical times to the present.
