Charles Wordsworth's Graecae Grammaticae Rudimenta in Usum
Scholarum was, for decades, the foundational Greek grammar in
England. Wordsworth, a nephew of the poet, a master at Winchester
College and later bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld, and Dublane, used
his expertise in teaching the classical languages to produce a
clear, practical introduction to Greek, beginning with the alphabet
and progressing through the declension of nouns and adjectives, the
conjugations of verbs, and the fundamentals of syntax. In striving
not to replace the standard Eton Grammar but rather to refine and
revise it, Wordsworth succeeded in composing a book that one fellow
master called 'most distinct, easy of conception for the boys, and
lucidly arranged'. This ninth edition (1853) includes the author's
full emendations to the text.
