Reviews

The book constitutes a perfect combination of qualitative and quantitative description and analysis...All in all, the book serves its major aims successfully: it addresses a more general public, which can be helped with the long discussion of the basic concepts, the glossary, and the detailed comments on all passages; it contains an exhaustive analysis of a large corpus of text; and it offers an alternative analysis of the semantic paths of constructions (mainly)...from the 8th cent. bc to the 8th cent. ad. * Nikolaos Lavidas, Journal of Greek Linguistics *
