Headword: *)apokh/rukton
Adler number: alpha,3350
Translated headword: disenfranchised, disinherited, renounced
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning someone or something] alien.[1]
"One simply saying that the disenfranchised are worthless might seem to be saying that they are such of necessity; this indeed is not the case. For it is possible that someone who is not that sort of person has become disenfranchised. At any rate they say that Themistocles became disenfranchised; he indeed was not worthless."[2]
Also [sc. attested is] a)pokhru/ttontes ["they disenfranchising"], [meaning they] selling. Thus Demosthenes and Plato [sc. use the word].[3]
But others say that "alienated" [e)kpoi/hton] differs from "disinherited" [a)pokh/rukton], because someone disinherited is cast out as punishment, but someone alienated is publicly given by his natural father into a different household.[4]

Notes:
[1] Likewise in other lexica. The literal meaning of the headword (here masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular; the former, if extracted from the quotation about to be given) is "expelled by the proclamation of a herald."
[2] Alexander of Aphrodisias, Commentary on Aristotle's Topica 179.23-27 Wallies.
[3] From Harpokration s.v., who cites Demosthenes 23.201 and quotes Plato Comicus fr. 121 Kock (139 K-A).
[4] Quoted from epsilon 600.
