A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The author of this book feels that there is an imperative need for such a bflef manual of Latin Grammar as the French, and, more particularly, the Germans, have had for years. Such a manual, intended primarily for use in secondary schools, can be made brief by omitting exceptional usages and by reducing the usual array of quotations to a minimum. It can be simplified by stating the leading facts of the language clearly and concisely. The present work, designed to cover the ground mentioned, is largely the outgrowth of practical experience in the class-room. Everywhere the effort has been made to state material points only, and to give these in the simplest and most direct way. The work has been further condensed and simplified by the use of typographical devices in the form of summaries and tables. The examples given are few, and are taken from the classics usually read first by the student. It is assumed that a single example which clearly illustrates the principle stated is worth more to the student than a number of sentences on no one of which his attention is concentrated. The Index of Grammatical References (p. 239) is intended to facilitate the use of this manual in connection with texts referring to the standard Latin Grammars. In quantity, Lindsay sL atin Language has been taken as a standard in doubtful cases.
