Los compuestos con el prefijo δυσ- en griego antiguo

Abstract

Combining the methods of the «Sprachinhaltsforschung» (research of the linguistic content) proposed by Leo Weisgerber and the Lexematic theory of E. Coseriu, we develop the linguistic analysis of the formations with the prefix δυσ- in Ancient Greek Literature from Homer to the second century after Christ. The research, mainly semantic, was divided into four sections concerning the form, the content, the production and the function-effect. The evolution of the compounds with δυσ- shows the development of early formations on which new creations in different literary fields during ten centuries of History are based. For example, the great number of compounds used in the medical terminology.
