Dedicated to a man who has devoted his life to the study of the Greek language and its literature. Professor Jerker Blomqvist began his academic career as a PhD at Lund University 1969, and since then has been brightening up the lives of his students, colleagues and friends. He has been a popular and committed teacher who, aside from his lecturing, has also written books in subjects covering everything from Greek grammar to commentaries on classical texts. Even if his most important publications have dealt with linguistics and textual criticism, these works nevertheless contain traces of other fields that have interested him. The articles in For Particular Reasons mirror the widely different areas of interest of the guest of honour. Here are texts dealing with medicine, Latin hymnography, Greek grammar, exegetics and problems in translation.
