This volume proposes a multidisciplinary approach to the history of Ancient Greek. Each of its ten papers offers a methodological example of how the study of Greek can be greatly enhanced by a truly multidisciplinary perspective in which the analysis of language interacts with epigraphy, textual philology and comparative linguistics, yet without neglecting the role that linguistic features play in the texts in which they are used, and hence in the culture which produced both. The first four papers tackle epic language, addressing eccentric pronouns and formulas, the role and semantics of the middle perfect, and the development of hexameter poetry in the colonial West. The next two papers are devoted to lyric poetry and its linguistic influence in Greek literature and tackle fragments by Corinna and Epicharmus respectively. The remaining four contributions look into a variety of topics spanning from early Ionic prose to the diachronic development of the Greek lexicon and its reception in Byzantine lexicography. They all provide examples of how Greek literary language evolved across the centuries, how it was perceived by ancient scholars, and what contribution modern linguistic approaches can provide to our understanding of both these issues.

We are so very thrilled to bring you this ancient Greek saga handed down throughout the centuries in our family. Scribed initially on parchment, papyrus, animal skins, and through word-of-mouth, CG Blade's Great-grandfather, Angelo Pappas, pieced this fable together using the tools available to him at the time. He passed away in 1974 after a long and fruitful life. It is indeed an honor to bring this story to you in its entirety completely untouched with updated editing. A tale of love, courage, and bravery in the midst of ancient Greece, we present to you 'In The Path Of The Beast' initially published by Evangelos Pappazisis (Angelo Pappas), and translated into English by Stavroula Will, (Rose Will) in 1952. A mere two copies of this book remained in existence until Jackie Siefert-Pappas transcribed it this past year. A HUGE debt of gratitude and a loving "thank you" to Jackie for the countless hours she put into transcribing this story from the hardbound edition.

The idea for this book was born during a tour of Greece taken by the author focusing on ancient sites including Delphi. Swisher began to wonder what happened to all the treasures that been given to the Priests and Pythias at the sanctuary and this story evolved from there. We follow both Atys, a Lydian slave from 650 BC and James, an insurance agent in AD 2010 on their journeys to Delphi Greece. Atys is among the slaves carrying a heavy chest of solid gold coins up the steep trail to the Oracle. Their paths cross when James finds a mysterious metal box in the crumbling basement of an old Greek farmhouse he may inherit. James makes a friend and partner in Angela who struggles to overcome her fears to help him unravel a mysterious message. You will find ordinary people with normal quirks and believable skills who will take you on a fast-paced adventure leading to an exciting and fulfilling climactic ending.

‘We are all Greeks. Our laws, our literature, our religion, our arts, have their root in Greece’, the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley once wrote. It is in Greek that the questions which shaped the destiny of Western culture were asked, and so were the first attempts at an answer, and the search for a method of investigation. This book tries to rediscover the propulsive force that for over two millennia spread, and still lives in our system of thought. By systematically quoting the very words of the leading actors and by tracing their sources, it leads the reader along a path where they will be able to observe the establishment of philosophical ideas and language, in an updated and balanced picture of archaic lore, of the thought of the classical and hellenistic ages, and of the philosophy of late antiquity. The book looks closely at the progress of scientific thought and at its increasing autonomy, while following the evolution of the fruitful yet problematic relationship between the Greek world and the Near East.
