Présentation de l'éditeur

The aim of this book is (i) to combine a thorough and systematic study of the essentials of Greek syntax with abundant practice in translating connected English into Attic Greek; and (2) to afford constant practice in writing Greek at sight. Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second years study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first years work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon s Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I-IV of the A nabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I-i Vof the A nabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the student who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the authors personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.
