A Practical Introduction to Greek Prose Composition Thomas Kerchever Arnold

Those who are familiar with Mr. T. Kerchever Arnold s Introduction to Greek Prose Composition wll j Snd in this revised version of the book much that is familiar and something that is new. I have endeavoured to keep everything that seemed of value, and often I have adhered to the words of the explanations because I wished to preserve, so far as possible, the continuity of the book. But I have added illustrations, altered the order of the sections, and indeed re-arranged the matter of the sections themselves, wherever I thought that, by doing so, I could gain in clearness or simplicity; I have also rewritten, almost entirely, the sentences in the exercises. The precise arrangement which is best for teaching is a difficult question,and I do not suppose that the order in which I have placed the sections will be accepted by every one. But with the help of the vocabulary and the references it is quite possible to do the exercises in a diflferent order from that given, or to omit any which do not appear to be needed. The lists of accents, irregular verbs, c., which Mr. Arnold prefixed to his book, I have omitted, because all that is required on these matters can be obtained from the Greek A ccidence; and I have also omitteA.
