Synopsis
Excerpt from The Restored Pronunciation of Greek and Latin: With Tables and Practical Explanations
The project has also received the approval of the Court and Senate of the University, and it may therefore be considered that these bodies desire to see some such uniform system of pronunciation adopted in the teaching and examinations Of the University.
We are confident that, in course of time, the principles we here advocate will win increasing approval from the general body of classical scholars: but we look to the criticisms of others, and to the test of experience, to add not a little in detail to the scientific and practical value of the scheme. Meanwhile we hope that it will be favourably considered, in the first instance, by all who are interested in classical studies in Wales.

The Restored Pronunciation of Greek and Latin (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a revised pronunciation guide for the ancient languages of Greek and Latin. The author draws on the latest research in historical linguistics and phonetics to outline a pronunciation method that seeks a balance between historical accuracy and practical ease of acquisition. The book argues that the English method of pronouncing Latin and Greek, which is almost universal in England and still widely prevalent in the United States, should be abandoned. It proposes an alternative method that more accurately represents the sounds of these languages as they were spoken in ancient times, while at the same time avoiding serious difficulty for beginners. The reformed pronunciation system advocated in this book offers not only improvements in historical accuracy and musical character, but also greater simplicity and ease of learning compared to the prevailing methods. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330811900_0
