Linguistic varieties such as female speech, foreigner talk, and
colloquial language have not gone unnoticed when it comes to
Classical Greek, but little is known about later periods of the
Greek language. In this collective volume leading experts in the
field outline some of the most important varieties of
Post-classical and Byzantine Greek, basing themselves on a broad
range of literary and documentary sources, and advancing a number
of innovative methodologies. Close attention is paid to the
linguistic features that characterize these varieties, with
in-depth discussions of lexical, morpho-syntactic, orthographic,
and metrical variation, as well as the interrelationship between
these different types of variation. The volume thus offers valuable
insights into the nature of Post-classical and Byzantine Greek,
laying the foundation for future studies of linguistic variation in
these later stages of the language, while at the same time
providing a point of comparison for Classical Greek scholarship
