7. 25. The neologisms in 2 Maccabees

   Författare :Nikolaos Domazakis; Grekiska (antik och bysantinsk); []
   Nyckelord :2 Maccabees; neologisms; hapax legomena; Septuagint lexicography; deuterocanonical apocryphal books; Alpha Text of Esther; Polybius;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates a hitherto under-researched topic in Septuagint studies, the Septuagint neologisms, that is, the words which are first attested in the Septuagint, taking as a case in point a deuterocanonical/apocryphal book originally written in Greek, the Second Book of Maccabees (2 Maccabees). The thesis first examines how the neologisms have so far been treated in Septuagint studies and lexicography and proposes a method for their identification based on a thorough search of the electronic databases of ancient Greek literary and non-literary texts rather than of the existing Greek lexica.
