Description
Paul Danove presents a case frame grammar and lexicon for the Gospel ofMark, with three major goals. He first provides a step-by-step introduction to case frame analysis, incorporating various adaptations and extensions to address the needs of the study of the Greek of theNewTestament. He then provides a comprehensive introduction to themost frequently observed predicator usages in the New Testament, finallycombining all syntactic, semantic, lexical, and further descriptivegrammatical information in a manner that guides the interpretation andtranslation of predicators in their grammatical contexts.Danovebeginswith the method of analysis and description, with an overview ofcaseframe grammar, an analysis of the events grammaticalized by the predicators in the Gospel of Mark, descriptions of the usages oftheseevents, and further specification of these descriptions. He then provides illustrative examples of the predicators with each usage, discusses the distinctive grammatical characteristics of the Gospel, sets forth the protocols for generating lexicon entries, and concludes with the case frame lexicon for predicators in the text of Mark.
