Περίληψη (στα Αγγλικά)

Since the decipherment of the Linear Β script by Michael Ventris in 1952, many books and papers have contributed to a better understanding of the Mycenaean texts and their cultural context. F. Aura Jorro has been able to critically review and systematize the richness and variety of the scholarship devoted to the interpretation of Mycenaean in his outstanding Diccionario micénico. This volume honours him with sixteen papers written by scholars working from different perspectives on the Linear Β tablets, Mycenaean culture, and related fields. The papers collected in this book provide new insights into a number of various subjects: Linear Β script and texts, Mycenaean grammar, lexicon and religion.

Some of the papers tackle with open questions concerning the phonetic value of certain Linear Β syllabograms, thus making a contribution towards a more refined understanding of this script. The function of particular types of texts, such as the ‘flat-based nodules’, is also dealt with in the volume. Various linguistic questions raised by the study of the Mycenaean texts are the focus of other papers, including certain aspects of Mycenaean grammar in comparison to the situation in 1st millennium Greek and its Indo-European background, as well as onomastics, lexicon, and word formation.

Other papers are devoted to the interpretation of individual tablets, thus providing in-depth analyses of some texts. A number of papers deal with particular aspects of Mycenaean religion (gods, cults and rituals), and the volume also makes a contribution to the ongoing debate on the interpretation of the new Linear Β texts from Thebes. Finally, some papers are concerned with the interaction of Linear Β and Mycenaean with other languages and scripts and other questions of Aegean epigraphy. The volume will be of interest not only for Mycenologists and specialists in the Aegean cultures, but also for scholars working on the history of the Greek language, Greek religion and institutions, and Indo-European.
