The Greek Reader (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Greek ReaderIt is proper to state in the first place, that although this edition is comprised in a smaller volume than the preceding American ones, yet it contains the whole of the former text, with considerable additional matter. The publishers have been enabled to make these additions by adopting a smaller type, and by dispensing with the imperfect Lexicon, which has accompanied the other editions. This Lex icon has been laid aside in conformity with the opinions of experienced instructers, and other persons, conversant with the study of the learned languages. Such partial lexicons, before we had general ones in English, were highly usefiil but they are now superseded by the latter, and, in the Opinion of the best judges, have a tendency to give the learner too limited and incomplete a view of a language, and thus in some measure to retard his acquisition of it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
