1. •Works to be added to this bibliography must treat some issue directly relevant to understanding Hellenistic Greek (koine Greek), or an earlier form of the Greek language (though preference is given to works discussing the language of the Hellenistic period). Works addressing Classical Greek are included where no parallel work discussing Hellenistic Greek is available.
2. •Any work added to this bibliography must self-consciously apply a specific model of modern linguistics. No preference is given to one model over others, but all works should clearly state what form of linguistics is being applied.
