Synopsis
Excerpt from Locative Expressions in the Attic Orators: A Dissertation Accepted by the Board of University Studies of Johns Hopkins University for the Degre of Doctor of Philosophy
The various statements that have appeared regarding the use made of the locative adverb in proper names are unsatisfactory and vague, not to say misleading.1 The uncertainty that has been felt regarding it is an inheritance from antiquity itself, and though the questions involved are of sufficient importance to repay con sideration no systematic effort seems to have been made to bring together the material necessary for the drawing of safe and reason ably certain conclusions.
