Paul Danove presents a case frame grammar and lexicon for the Gospel of
Mark, 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 the
New
Testament. He then provides a comprehensive introduction to the
most frequently observed predicator usages in the New Testament, finally
combining all syntactic, semantic, lexical, and further descriptive
grammatical information in a manner that guides the interpretation and
translation of predicators in their grammatical contexts.
Danove
begins
with the method of analysis and description, with an overview of
case
frame grammar, an analysis of the events grammaticalized by the
predicators in the Gospel of Mark, descriptions of the usages of
these
events, 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.
