Book Romaic and Modern Greek Compared with One Another  and with Ancient Greek  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Romaic and Modern Greek Compared with One Another and with Ancient Greek Classic Reprint written by James Clyde and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romaic and Modern Greek Compared With One Another, and With Ancient Greek The following pages contain such an account of Romaic and Modern Greek as may exhibit to the classical student what has really become of the Greek language, once generally supposed to be dead, and now alleged by some to survive. This account will materially assist the inquiries of those who would enter on a detailed examination of the surviving dialects, whether by reading at home, or by Visiting Greece; whilst the merely curious will find in it that summary of infor mation and examples which they desiderate. A disquisition has two advantages in the present case over a grammar. From the multiplicity of dialects in Romaic, and the diversities of style in Modern Greek, both have a Protean character, and what is thus really manifold and un settled, is apt to be represented as single and definite in a grammar, which presupposes the construction of model para digms. Then, into a disquisition can be introduced with greater propriety the critical and historical matter which the subject demands. Whilst for these reasons the form of a grammar has been avoided, few grammatical peculiarities of Romaic or Modern Greek have been left unexplained, so that the attentive reader, who is already a tolerable Greek scholar, will find himself qualified to peruse works in either.

Book Placing Modern Greece

Download or read book Placing Modern Greece written by Constanze Guthenke and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-02-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placing Modern Greece is about literary representations of Greece in the period of Romanticism, encompassing the time in the 1820s when it became a territorial and political reality as a nation state. Constanze Guthenke claims that the imagining of and attitude towards Greece was shaped by a fascination with the material, and by the highly conceptualized tension between the ideal on the one hand, and the material on the other. Her study focuses on nature and landscape imagery as vehicles of representation, on their specific inner workings, and on their dynamic, which conditions how and whether Greece as a modern entity in the making can be represented at all. Offering readings from German and contemporaneous Greek authors, Guthenke supplies a commentary on the translation and crossings of representational models and their limits.

Book Greek and Roman Education

Download or read book Greek and Roman Education written by Mark Joyal and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern western education finds its origins in the practices, systems and schools of the ancient Greeks and Romans. It is in the field of education, in fact, that classical antiquity has exerted one of its clearest influences on the modern world. Yet the story of Greek and Roman education, extending from the eighth century B.C. into the Middle Ages, is familiar in its details only to relatively few specialists. Containing nearly 300 translated texts and documents, Greek and Roman Education: A Sourcebook is the first book to provide readers with a large, diverse and representative sample of the primary evidence for ancient Greek and Roman education. A special feature of this Sourcebook is the inclusion not only of the fundamental texts for the study of the subject, but also unfamiliar sources that are of great interest but are not easily accessible, including inscriptions on stone and Greek papyri from Egypt. Introductions to each chapter and to each selection provide the guidance which readers need to set the historical periods, themes and topics into meaningful contexts. Fully illustrated and including extensive suggestions for further reading, together with an index of passages explored, students will have no further need for any other sourcebook on Greek and Roman education.

Book Classical Greek Tactics

Download or read book Classical Greek Tactics written by Roel Konijnendijk and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What determined the choices of the Greeks on the battlefield? Were their tactics defined by unwritten moral rules, or was all considered fair in war? In Classical Greek Tactics: A Cultural History, Roel Konijnendijk re-examines the literary evidence for the battle tactics and tactical thought of the Greeks during the 5th and 4th centuries BC. Rejecting the traditional image of limited, ritualised battle, Konijnendijk sketches a world of brutally destructive engagements, restricted only by the stubborn amateurism of the men who fought. The resulting model of hoplite battle does away with most received wisdom about the nature of Greek battle tactics, and redefines the way they reflected the values of Greek culture as a whole.
