Recenzje

"Presupposition and [E]motion: The Upgraded Function and the Semantics of the Participle in the New Testament by Roque N. Albuquerque invites us to a fascinating reflection about the participle. An old Greek professor once said that the participle is named as such for participation of grammatical classes, both the verb and the adjective, now with the proposal of Professor Albuquerque, we could complete that statement saying that the denomination of the participle is also to promote the participation of the reader/listener in the author's discourse."-Ana Maria César Pompeu, Classical Studies and Greek Language Scholar, Associate Professor, Federal University of Ceará, Brazil
