Resumo

The constructions of the adjective μόνος and the adverb μόνον as focalizers are investigated in the text of Thucydides and contrasted with the data from Herodotus and Polybius offered by Powell’s and Mauerberger’s lexica. Besides the identifi cation of those constructions, and in order to describe their syntactic and semantic properties, further aspects are investigated, namely: association with the negative, scope, position relative to the focused item, expression of an explicit alternative and focusing of an elided term.
