the published Ancient Armenian texts, mainly belonging to the so-called
Hellenizing School of translations (late fifth - early eighth century),
which are explained by Greek influence. These features include various
types of lexical, morphological and syntactical Grecisms. Many of them are
also characteristic of 'pre-Hellenizing' translations; a few examples of
some of them are found in the early classical translations from Greek. In
all cases the corresponding passages of the Greek originals (if extant)
are cited. Most of the sections concluded with examples of the classical
translation practice of the corresponding linguistic features without any
Greek influence. In an appendix, various features of Latinizing Armenian
(seventeenth century) are traced back to Hellenizing Armenian.
