While accusative referential null objects in Ancient Greek are the subject of various descriptions, an investigation on non-accusative null objects is still a desideratum. In this paper we analyze two kinds of contexts, semi-automatically retrieved from the Homeric Dependency Treebank, in which one can assume that a genitive or a dative object is omitted. In particular, we focus on contexts with coordinated verbs and with conjunct participles. After a manual revision of the occurrences retrieved, we describe and analyze the data according to a number of parameters, in order to hypothesize the case of the non-overt object.

Abstract

While accusative referential null objects in Ancient Greek are the subject of various descriptions, an investigation on non-accusative null objects is still a desideratum. In this paper we analyze two kinds of contexts, semi-automatically retrieved from the Homeric Dependency Treebank, in which one can assume that a genitive or a dative object is omitted. In particular, we focus on contexts with coordinated verbs and with conjunct participles. After a manual revision of the occurrences retrieved, we describe and analyze the data according to a number of parameters, in order to hypothesize the case of the non-overt object.
