Headword: Λαμπρόψυχος
Adler number: lambda,99
Translated headword: bright-souled, dazzling-souled, high-minded
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
Meaning great-souled.
Greek Original:
Λαμπρόψυχος: ἀντὶ τοῦ μεγαλόψυχος.
Notes:
The headword adjective is similarly glossed in Photius, Lexicon Lambda207.1 and in the Lexica Segueriana (Anonymus Antatticista 106.6) -- the latter adding the crucial fact that it is cited from a fragment of Attic Comedy: Araros [see alpha 3737] fr.15 Kock.
In a later era it reappears as an occasional synonym for that common adjective of the encomiastic genre used here to define it.
Keywords: comedy; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; rhetoric
