Headword: Antikathêtai
Adler number: alpha,2665
Translated headword: takes a stand against
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Meaning [he/she/it] opposes.[1]
Also [sc. attested is the infinitive] a)ntikaqi/stasqai ["to take a stand"] similarly.[2]
"[He] being unable to take a stand against the mob."[3]
Greek Original:
Antikathêtai: anti tou enantioutai. kai Antikathistasthai homoiôs. ou dunamenos tôi plêthei antikathistasthai.
Notes:
[1] Same headword and gloss in other lexica. The headword (third person singular of a)ntika/qhmai) is evidently quoted from somewhere; there are several extant possibilities, all post-classical.
[2] Present middle infinitive of a)ntikaqi/sthmi.
[3] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
Keywords: biography; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; historiography; history
