Early Greek Relative Clauses

Philomen Probert (University lecturer in Classical Philology and Linguistics, University lecturer in Classical Philology and Linguistics, University of Oxford)

Early Greek Relative Clauses contributes to an old debate currently enjoying a revival: should we expect languages spoken a few thousand years ago, such as Proto-Indo-European, to be less well-equipped than modern languages when it comes to subordinate clauses? Early Greek relative clauses provide a test case for this problem, and this volume takes a new look at the relative clause systems found in a wide variety of early Greek texts, considering material as diverse as the Homeric poems, laws inscribed in stone on the island of Crete, and the philosophical prose of Heraclitus.
