Abstract

Il presente lavoro propone una riflessione sull’esistenza di costrutti risultativi in greco antico e sul rapporto tra questi e i costrutti causativi. Lo spunto è fornito da un famoso passo euripideo, che attesta un uso insolito del verbo διδάσκω, e dalle riprese che di questo passo fanno gli autori antichi, i quali sostituiscono διδάσκω con ποιέω. Diversamente dalla communis opinio, il greco antico attesta dunque - pur limitate alla tragedia - costruzioni di tipo risultativo, un pattern particolarmente produttivo nelle lingue germaniche, in cui è stato oggetto di studio approfondito.
