The so-called Antiatticista is a Greek Atticistic lexicon crucial
for understanding the Atticism of the 2nd cent. CE. The anonymous
author approved a broader idea of Attic language in contrast to the
most rigorous Atticists. For this (polemic) purpose, he used some
older sources (in particular Hellenistic ones, such as Aristophanes
of Byzantium) where he could find rich quotations from classical
authors, especially from comic poets. Given that many of them are
no longer extant, this work now represents the only source for
them. The first critical edition of this lexicon is prefaced by a
survey of its textual tradition, direct and indirect, which
concerns its relationship to the Byzantine lexicon Synagoge. The
authorship, the typology, and the sources of the work are also
investigated. The unedited annotations by David Ruhnkenius for his
planned edition of the text are appended. Comprehensive indexes are
provided at the end of the book.
