Description

Part of the Advanced Language Series, this is a revised edition of "The Greek Dialects" published by Chicago
University Press in 1955. Its virtues were comparative
clarity and conciseness on a subject too often treated, for example by
contemporary work in German, with prolixity and obscurity. It became
the standard scholarly introduction and reference work on questions of
dialect; and though much valuable additional work has been done on the
subject since its appearance, it largely retains its original virtues
and still provides a valuable starting point of reference.

The Advanced Language Series reissues important books on Greek and
Latin Language (and associated areas) which have been unavailable for
some time or have not previously appeared in readily affordable
paperback format. They are intended for the reference shelves of all
scholars and students of classical languages.
