Since its publication in 1990, Athenaze: An Introduction to Ancient
Greek has helped tens of thousands of students learn classical
Greek. Building on the bestselling tradition of previous editions,
the long-awaited third edition combines the best features of
traditional and modern teaching methods. It provides a unique
course of instruction that allows students to read connected Greek
narrative right from the beginning and guides them to the point
where they can begin reading complete classical texts. James
Morwood, editor of the Oxford Grammar of Classical Greek and the
Pocket Oxford Classical Greek Dictionary, brings his expertise and
years of teaching experience to this revision. Carefully designed
to hold students' interest, the course begins in Book I with a
fictional narrative about an Attic farmer's family placed in a
precise historical context (432-431 B.C.). This narrative,
interwoven with tales from mythology and the Persian Wars,
gradually gives way in Book II to adapted passages from Thucydides,
Plato, and Herodotus and ultimately to excerpts of the original
Greek of Bacchylides, Thucydides, and Aristophanes' Acharnians.
Essays on relevant aspects of ancient Greek culture and history are
also woven throughout.
