In the Dictionnaire Grec-Francais (published in 1846
in Paris by R. C. Alexandre) the word "eudokia" is rendered
"bienveillence, tendresse, volunte, bon plaisir," etc.; and the
author gives "dokeo" as the root of "doxa," with its various
significations I have mentioned above.
The Greeks of Constantinople, among whose teachers I
have had several acquaintances, while unanimously under-
76
standing by "eudokia" the meaning of "delight, loveliness,
pleasantness, and desire," also admit that it does signify
"celebrity, renown, and honorability" in its original sense
as well.
