New Short Guide to the Accentuation of Ancient Greek, Paperback / softback Book

New Short Guide to the Accentuation of Ancient Greek Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The original aim of this book was to provide an updated reprint of J.P.

Postgate's "Short Guide to the Accentuation of Ancient Greek" (1924).

It has developed considerably during the preparation, still including what was most useful in Postgate but now incorporating much additional material and information based on the latest scholarship.

It is intended for those who have already learned some Greek but who wish to acquaint themselves with the workings of the accent system, either for the first time or by way of revision.

An introductory part outlines clearly the evidence for our knowledge of Greek accentuation and quotes some of our ancient sources for the sound of the accent.

The remainder of the book is designed to facilitate the learning of the accents themselves.

Exercises are included throughout.
