T1 Nota sobre Odisea 1.7
A1 Conti, Luz
AB The genitive αὐτῶν with which the seventhline of the Odyssey starts in thevulgata and in all modern editions allowsin principle several interpretations. In thispaper, we defend a hypothesis that has sofar never been raised: the function of thegenitive as the expression of a semi-subject,that is, of a subject that has semantic andpragmatic properties which do not correspondexactly to the properties of the prototypicalsubject and with a grammaticalcodification that is also different from thegrammatical codification of the prototypicalsubject, this is, the nominative. Thisanalysis of αὐτῶν solves the disadvantagesof other interpretations and is supportedby the use of the genitive in other Homericpassages and in the works of subsequentwriters. If we accept the hypothesis that isdefended in this paper, we would be facingthe first example in Greek of unequivocalagreement in number and person betweenthe genitive and its verbal predicate.

AB El genitivo  αὐτῶν con el que empieza la séptima línea de la Odisea en la vulgata permite muchas interpretaciones en todas las ediciones modernas. En este artículo, defendemos la hipótesis de algo que no se ha propuesto hasta ahora: la función del genitivo como expresión de un semi-sujeto, es decir, de un sujeto con propiedades semánticas y pragmáticas que no se corresponden con las propiedades prototípicas de un sujeto, y con una codificación gramática que también difiere de la codificación gramática de un sujeto prototípico, es decir, el nominativo. Este análisis de αὐτῶν resuelve los inconvenientes de otras interpretaciones, y apoya el uso del genitivo en otros pasajes de Homero, y el trabajo de posteriores escritores. Si aceptamos la hipótesis que se defiende en este artículo, estaríamos enfrentándonos al primer ejemplo de un acuerdo indiscutible griego en número y persona entre el genitivo y su predicado.
