Andrea Massimo Cuomo, « Osservazioni sul lessico di Ioannes Cananus: la soloecobarbara elocutio », Revue des études byzantines, ID : 10.2143/REB.72.0.3044843
The article looks at borrowings, hapax legomena and the use of vernacularisms in the Ioannes Cananus’ Account on the Siege of Constantinople in 1422. The most relevant entries are listed and discussed. On the basis of a new analysis of the manuscript tradition, the author also suggests some amendments to the Lexikon zur byzantinischen Gräzität and to the reference edition by E. Pinto (1977).
