Meer over het boek
Focusing on the evolution of passive verb constructions in Ancient Greek, this work examines how agents were expressed through various prepositions. It investigates the conditions under which agents are marked by constructions other than hupo with the genitive, tracing changes from Homeric texts to classical prose and drama. The study highlights semantic, syntactic, and metrical influences on preposition usage and concludes with an analysis of the decline of hupo as an agent marker by the first millennium AD, making it relevant for linguists interested in prepositional system changes.
