For New Testament biblical scholars, this book constitutes a vital
summary of contemporary, theoretically-sound interpretations of the
linguistic functions of the Post-Classical (Koine) Greek article in a
way that will inform exegesis of the text, especially in the field of
larger discourse units. There is also significant payoff for the
as-yet significantly under-researched field of Koine linguistics. The
essays included in this volume are written by notable experts,
offering contributions to the linguistic analysis of the
Post-Classical Greek language. While there remains no comprehensive
treatment of the grammar of the Post-Classical dialects, individual
elements of that grammar continue to be fruitfully explored. The
collection presented here offers interpretations of the functions and
grammar of the Greek article (ὁ, ἡ, τό) from a variety of
perspectives, including generative grammar and discourse analysis,
along with studies that make use of text-critical and diachronic data.
Together, these supply readers of Greek with a thorough understanding
of the functions of the article and constitute a starting point for
further research efforts.
