This book explores for the first time the relation between Atticist
lexicography and the pronunciation of Greek, an aspect of Atticism
that has never been studied thouroughly before. It examines the
ideas of the Atticist about what Greek should sound like, drawing
on Atticist lexicography as the main source of information on the
special pronunciation of the Atticist. The book addresses all
scholars with an interest in Atticism, Greek in the Imperial
period, and linguistic purism more in general. It sheds new light
on an aspect of Atticism that is otherwise poorly attested, and
complements the existiting study on later Greek and the impact of
Atticism in the history of the Greek language.
