DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The aim of this work is to furnish in concise form the essential material for an introductory study of Greek dialects," wrote Buck in his introduction to the 1910 edition of this systematic and thorough treatment of the regional speech patterns of Ancient Greece. Part I begins with an extensive section on phonology, followed by a grammar and then syntax and summaries of the dialects-Attic-Ionic, Ionic, Arcado-Cyprian, Aeolic, Northwest Greet and Doric. Part II gives over 100 pages of inscriptions in the various idioms, followed by a glossary and index. Also included are charts and a dialect map of Greece.
