Description

2013 Reprint of 1888/1889 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Published by Oxford University Press, this remains a central reference work for all scholars of ancient Greek authors and texts discovered up to 1889, from the 11th century BC to the Byzantine Period. The early Greek of authors such as Homer and Hesiod, Classical Greek, and the Greek Old and New Testaments are included. Each entry lists not only the definition of a word, but also its irregular inflections, and quotations from a full range of authors and sources to demonstrate usage. This reference work is indispensable for biblical and classical studies alike and is probably the world's most comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of ancient Greek. This edition, first published in 1888 is based on the Seventh Edition [1883] of Liddell and Scott's "Greek-English Lexicon".
