Here, selected and revised versions of 16 papers from an international conference in Ghent, the Netherlands, during December 2016 take up the challenge. Among their topics are ideolect in focus: two brothers in the Memphis Sarapieion during the second century BCE, from highly classicizing to common prose (8th-14th centuries CE): the metaphrasis of Niketas Choniates' History, orthographic variation and register in the corpus of Greek documentary papyri (300 BCE - 800 CE), and the distinctiveness of syntax for varieties of post-classical and Byzantine Greek: linguistic upgrading from the third century BCE to the tenth century CE.
