A Comprehensive Bibliography
of Hellenistic Greek Linguistics

by Micheal W. Palmer

Almost all of the works listed here apply some form of modern linguistics to Hellenistic Greek, though some of the older works have a more traditional tone. Some works on Classical Greek are included where no parallel work addressing Hellenistic Greek exists. The works cited represent a wide range of theoretical perspectives.

A few entries are incomplete. I update the bibliography as new information becomes available.

Criteria for inclusion of a work in this bibliography are explained at the end of the bibliography below.

This article deals with the relationship between vocabulary size and document length and uses eight Ancient Greek documents to test the author's hypothesis about the relationship between the two (which he calls the "Generalized Torquist" principle). The documents in question date from about the fifth century BCE.
