The Oxford Latin Syntax: Volume II: The Complex Sentence and Discourse

Autor Harm Pinkster
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2021
In this two-volume work, the first full-scale treatment of its kind in English, Harm Pinkster applies contemporary linguistic theories and the findings of traditional grammar to the study of Latin syntax. He takes a non-technical and principally descriptive approach, based on literary and non-literary texts dating from c.250 BC to c.450 AD. The volumes contain a wealth of examples to illustrate the grammatical phenomena under discussion, many of them from the works of Plautus and Cicero, alongside extensive references to other sources of examples such as the Oxford Latin Dictionary and the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae. While the first volume explored the simple clause, this second volume focuses on the complex sentence and discourse. The first three chapters examine different types of subordinate clause; the following four then explore relative clauses, coordination, comparison, and secondary predicates. Later chapters investigate information structure and extraclausal expressions, word order, and discourse and related features. The Oxford Latin Syntax will be a valuable and up-to-date resource both for professional Latinists and all linguists with an interest in Classics.

Recenzii

Overall, the OLS is a monumental achievement, and such idiosyncrasies as there are do not detract from this. These volumes present a comprehensive unified account of the whole of Latin syntax, broadly conceived, and they are both a source of reference for the familiar and also an invitation to think about it anew.
a stunning achievement
Thought out to be the scientifically up-to-date replacement for the Ausfürliche Grammatik der lateinischen Sprache: Satzlehre, the Oxford Latin Syntax (...), is a monument to the Latin language and contemporary linguistics that no Latinist can be indifferent to.
