Menander and the Alexandrian dialect : the Atticists’ perspective on Menander’s language
- Author

- Organization
- Abstract
- This chapter focuses on the metalanguage used in the Atticist lexica and the types of linguistic labels that the lexicographers used to describe the language of Menander. In particular, I focus on the label Ἀλεξανδρεωτικός and its association with Menander’s language. The analysis of the lexicographers’ critique of Menander’s phonology, morphology and syntax and the association between Menander and certain chronological (i.e. νέα Ἀτθίς, νεώτεροι) and geographical labels (i.e., Ἀσιανός, Ἀλεξανδρεωτικός) give us insights into the lexicographers’ understanding of language varieties and the process of language change and reveal the positioning of the Atticist lexicographers towards the interactions between Attic and Koine.
