Items related to A Greek Prose Course: Unit 4: Historiography
Synopsis
This is the last in a set of four texts, two of which have already been used in the classroom and refined in the light of feedback both general and specific. This volume concentrates on historiography. These editions are designed for post-beginners in Greek and other learners wishing to consolidate their reading skills. Particular attention is paid to idiomatic usage (both in Greek and English), word order and the use of particles and particle-combinations, while practical guidance is given on mastering the verbal systems and other features of the language which beginners generally find problematic. The four units may be studied in succession as part of a progressive course, but each unit is sufficiently self-contained to permit the pursuit of particular interests.
The course comprises:
Unit 1 Forensic Oratory - Lysias: On the Murder of Eratosthenes
Unit 2 Philosophy - Plato: Crito
Unit 3 Political Oratory - Demosthenes: Third Philippic
Unit 4 Historiography - Thucydides: Events at Pylos and Sphacteria

About the Authors
Thucydides (c. 460–c.395 BC) was a Greek historian and Athenian general. His History of the Peloponnesian War recounts the 5th century BC war between Sparta and Athens. Thucydides has been called the father of "scientific history", and of political realism.
Malcolm Campbell was previously Reader in Greek at the University of St Andrews, UK. His numerous publications on Greek literature include commentaries on Apollonius Rhodius, Moschus and Quintus Smyrnaeus, and a lexicon to Triphiodorus.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
