Originally published in 1915 and written by British born Australian
academic and Emeritus Professor of Classics in the University of
Adelaide, Henry Darnley Naylor, this textbook is aimed at school
students as well as undergraduates and provides 'assistance in
acquiring Livian style'. Featuring an index for quick reference,
this book includes a full explanation of language points and is
written for practical use: 'the purpose of this book, as of my
Latin and English Idiom, is to encourage detailed comparison of two
fine languages'. An earlier publication, Latin and English Idiom in
1909, accompanies this book, in which Naylor provides an
introduction to the idiom of the Latin and English language. This
book will be of value to scholars of Latin, classics and the
history of education.

that of Livy, he can have no ground of complaint, for he will have
learnt a great amount of valuable Latin'. This book will be of

A later publication More Latin and English Idiom in 1915
accompanies this book.
Originally published in 1922, this book presents a study in poetic
word order with illustrations from Horace's Odes, Epodes and the
Carmen Saeculare. The understanding of ancient word order is
important for the proper comprehension of Classical poetry,
especially since the same styles were not preserved in the Romance
languages following the adoption of Christianity. This book will be
of value to readers of Horace and anyone with an interest in the
original performance and understanding of ancient writing.
