About this product

Product Information

For students of ancient Greek ready to advance beyond the stage of absolute beginners where they are reading adapted Greek from coursebooks, this book offers an ideal first reader. Indeed there is no other book like it currently in print. It presents twenty extracts from a comprehensive range of Greek authors (Homer to Plutarch) with generous vocabulary and grammatical help. A general vocabulary is also included at the back. The passages have been chosen for their intrinsic interest and variety and brief introductions set them in context.

Reviews
' … the book is handsomely produced - carefully proof read, peppered with illustrations, and sensibly priced. It is ideal for intermediate Greek courses where students need to increase reading speed and enhance their familiarity with Greek culture. JACT deserves a pat on the back for such fine work.' The Classical Outlook, "The Joint Association of Classical Teachers deserves commendation for producing this handsome little anthology..." The Classical Outlook
