Book excerpt: Excerpt from Idylls of Old Greece HE men of the present have good reason to confess the debt they owe to ancient Greece; and it is scarcely too much to assert that, in regard to art, to literature, and to philosophy, their thanks are largely, though by no means exclusively, due to one city. Athens has laid the Whole civilised world under Obligations difficult alike to discharge, or to forget. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Idylls and Epigrams: Chiefly From the Greek In groves retired, where when the storm descends It brings but music to the pine it bends. Unblest, whose house the wandering billows bear With them, who strives with sea for fishy fare. But I beneath the broad-leaved plane will lie, Where some bright fountain, breaking forth hard by, Delights and not disturbs with bubbling melody. Winds sleep, snows melt, the sea's revolt is quelled, The blue of heaven unveiled, and Spring beheld. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Idylls of Theocritus A few words may be said in explanation of the design of this edition. I have tried to bring together in the Introduction the result of recent investigation into the literary history of the Alexandrian writers, so far as concerns Theocritus. An enormous amount of labour has been bestowed on this question in recent years, but chiefly in foreign magazines and monographs, and the results have never yet been introduced into an edition of Theocritus, although they are very necessary to a right understanding of his works and his position in Greek poetry 1.

Download or read book Stories of Old Greece Classic Reprint written by Emma M. Firth and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Old Greece "There is an instinct in the human heart Which makes all fables it has coined - To justify the reign of its belief, And strengthen it by beauty's right divine - Veil in their inner cells a mystic gift, Which, like the hazel twig in faithful hands, Points surely to the hidden springs of truth." Aside from their use as a means of strengthening the imagination, the myths embody ethical truths, which are helpful just in proportion to the intellectual activity which the stories arouse. The child lover will seek for the best means in accomplishing her end, - the harmonious culture of the child. In all that she does, she will be governed by the purest motives. The telling of a story has a broader meaning than that of entertainment. Its real motive is the making of what the child loves a means by which he may be led to a clearer understanding of his own powers and possibilities, and of his relations to others.

Download or read book Tales of Ancient Greece Classic Reprint written by George W. Cox and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Ancient Greece The Tales collected in this volume have, with one exception, appeared in the 'Tales from Greek Mythology, ' 'The Gods and Heroes, ' and 'Tales of Thebes and Argos.' The 'Tales from Greek Mythology' were written for the use of young children. It has been found necessary to modify a few of these stories, to bring them nearer to the level of the rest. The story of the 'Vengeance of Odysseus' has been added to complete the series of legends from the Odyssey, so as to give some idea of that poem as a whole. In place of the longer introductions prefixed to the 'Gods and Heroes' and to the 'Tales of Thebes and Argos, ' a new introduction is given, tracing each story to its earliest form, and resolving it into its original elements. I have here placed before the reader results rather than proofs. Recent discussions on the subject seem to justify the conviction that the foundations of the science of Comparative Mythology have been firmly laid, and that its method is unassailable.
