Excerpt from Studies in Greek Prepositional Phrases: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
Blaydes. On the other hand, they may give help in Greek composition as being more complete not only than the phrase books, but in some cases than even any Of the lexicons.
The field chosen for these studies is the period of classical Greek literature from Homer to the time of Aristotle. In order not to extend the limits of this paper unduly by dealing with the large class of technical phrases found in his works, Aristotle has not been included except for occasional passages that seemed interesting by way of comparison. Later literature has sometimes been drawn upon in the same way.
Similar collections have been made for all the prepositions through out this period, and it is hoped that the rest may be published at a later date. In dealing with such a mass of material as has been collected, it is inevitable that there should be mistakes and omissions despite pains taking endeavor. There is room, moreover, for difference of Opinion in regard to the inclusion of certain phrases, but in questionable cases the intention has been to err on the side of fullness rather than other wise, although the limits of such a paper as this preclude the claim of a thoroughly exhaustive treatment of the subject.
