It goes without saying that the instances discussed in this paragraph may all be considered as cases of the pronomen abundans, or rather as cases of pleonasm. 1 refrain from doing it, because for the phenomenon of the pronomen abundans two things are needed: arelat. pronoun and a pleonastic phrase of some sort. With regard to many earlier examples I have expressed my doubts as to the function of the relat. pronoun. In these cases, however, it is entirely obvious that the relat. pronoun is not a pronoun any longer, but a connective. 5.3.6. Sometimes the relat. pronoun is used without reference. It is Christensen who explains this phenomenon 3711: "Durch diese Art und die Vorliebe für relativische Anknüpfung ist der Verf. (sc. ofthe Byz. Alex.) dann weiter dazu gekommen, das Relativ an den Anfang ohne jede Beziehung zu setzen ...". Theoph. Conf. 46,33-47,4 ('IoVA.tavoç) ...

One gets the impression that these authors, while writing down the traditional relat. pronouns öç, öa't'tç and önee, had nothing else in mind than önov. This word, however, was suppressed, at least in the function of relat. pronoun: see 3.5, point 3 377 • In 2.4.1 some examples have been mentioned quoted from the Alchimiae apparatio. They are also cases of önee, but have been mentioned there, because they are followed by something which may be considered as a 375 For more examples see Christensen, p. 387. 376 Christensen, p. 387. 377 This may be proved by some instanees of a very odd use of önee in the Ohron.

Some more examples are: 1650H, 1973H, 6251HP, 7273H, 7274H, 7822HP, 7969H, 8479H and 8599H. Cf. also the use of a fossilized Ta noiov in Machairas: II 4.2.4.5.

Causes of the high frequency of the relat. connection The table in 5.2 has made it clear that in the Koine as well as in the byzantine period relat. connection occurs very of ten. Some authors are extremely fond of it, it seems. It has been said sometimes that this was caused by Latin influence 381, but Werner has rightly rejected this theory 382. In the following we shall discuss two phenomena which may have contributed to the tendency to use the relat. connection. 5.4.l. The loss of particles It has of ten been noted that the use of particles diminishes rapidly in the Koine and in byzantine Greek. In the following two paragraphs a survey will be given of the use of connective particles (not of the emphatic ones, as they are not of interest for our subject), based upon some publications on this matter. 5.4.l.l. In the Koine. In a study on paratactic ual mAttic Greek Trenkner speaks of the fact that in the Koine paratactic ual has replaced many connective particles, and adds 383: "On attribue cette portée du ual au déclin progressif, aux temps helléniques, des autres particules, Ie ual recueillant leur functions". In his study on the language of Diodorus Palm observes the same 384. He discusses, however, the connective and emphatic particles together, and thus it does not become clear, whether in speaking of the paucity of particles, he means the connective particles or not. And there are many others who speak of the scarcity of particles in Post-Classical Greek in general terms 385. In one of the most recent studies on this subject Blomquist gives us some interesting information. He composed, for instance, a tabIe, which shows that the particle ual occurs more of ten in Thucydides and Xenophon 378 Tabachovitz, Étudea, p. 15. 379 Other instances of this fossilized Snel} are found in G26 and 014. 380 For more examples see Christensen, pp. 387-8 and Tabachovitz, Étudea, p. 15. 381 See, for instance, Schwyzer-Debrunner, p. 644,13. 382 Werner, p. 275. Cf. also Tabachovitz, Pali., p . 99. 383 Trenker, p. 30. 384 Palm, pp. 37-8 and 116-7. 385 See Blass-Debrunner, § 107, Radermacher, Gramm., p. 37, Mayser II 3, p. 115 and Schwyzer-Debrunner, p. 556.
