Originally published in 1906, this textbook's principal aim is to
give 'the facts of the language as they appear in the accepted
models of Classical Latin'. Predominantly written for school
students, this highly informative book sets out to educate the
grammar of this classical language - the term 'classical' here
meant as the 'artificial literacy dialect of which Cicero and
Caesar are the recognised exponents in prose, Vergil, Ovid and
Horace in poetry'. Chapters are detailed and broad in scope;
chapter titles include, 'Phonology', 'Accidence' and 'Prosody'.
Notably, 'Accidence and syntax are treated separately, yet, where
it seemed convenient, e.g. with the impersonal verbs, the
construction of certain words has been given at the same time as
their forms and inflexions'. An index of verbs is included for
reference. Intended as a reliable and clear introduction, this book
will be of great value to anyone with an interest in Latin.
