Paul and egō: Some Comments on Grammar and Style
Why does Paul use the pronoun egō, which usually does not affect sense (adequately indicated by a first person singular verb)? The standard explanation, that egō supplies emphasis, is incomplete at best. A detailed survey of Paul's usage shows various factors: sometimes egō helps Paul distingui...

Σύνοψη: | Why does Paul use the pronoun egō, which usually does not affect sense (adequately indicated by a first person singular verb)? The standard explanation, that egō supplies emphasis, is incomplete at best.
