| PALMER, L.R The Interpretation of Mycenaean Greek Texts Oxford : Clarendon Press - Oxford, 1998. 8vo. Cloth. xiii, 488 pp. Intended as an introduction to the information contained in the Linear B texts from Mycenaean sites and addressed to the non-specialist, this book porvides a selection of the more interesting texts with a full commentary. Palmer’s interpretation is by combinatory analysis in which ‘the meaning of syllabically written words is circumscribed as far as possible by textual analysis before the lexicon is consulted’, rather than the purely etymological method used by earlier scholars, including Ventris. The results are summarized in Palmer’s introduction, which deals with epigraphy, decipherment, and the Mycenaean language, together with questions of geography, social structure, economy, and religion. A final section discusses the evidence bearing on the final catastrope of Pylos. There is a full bibliography, and Glossary of every extant Linear B word. Near fine book` in a very good plus dust jacket. USD 29.95 [Appr.: EURO 20 | £UK 18 | JP¥ 2643] Book number: 201272 Click here to order or inquire at Commonwealth Books. | ||
