Description



About the Book



This handbook contains a classified list, with English equivalents, of 1500 words in common use among classical Greek historians, orators and philosophers. The aim of the book is to enable learners to read the texts of such authors as Thucydides, Plato and Demosthenes with a high degree of fluency.



Book Synopsis



This handbook contains a classified list, with English equivalents, of 1500 words in common use among classical Greek historians, orators and philosophers. One hundred of these words are dealt with at greater length in a Supplement, which also focuses on a number of crucial idioms.

The aim of the book is that learners, drilled in these words over the course of a semester or two, should find that they can read the texts of such authors as Thucydides, Plato and Demosthenes with a high degree of fluency, and without the distraction of consulting dictionaries at every turn. An alphabetical index is provided for reference.
