Product Description

Product Description
Combining the best features of traditional and modern methods, Athenaze provides a unique course of instruction that allows students to read connected Greek narrative from an early stage, and guides them to the point where they can read complete classical texts. There is a fictional narrative about an Attic farmer's family placed in precise historical context (432 BC). The narrative is interwoven with tales from mythology and the Persian Wars, and gradually gives way to extracts from Herodotus, Plato, and Thucydides. Each chapter includes a full explanation of new vocabulary and grammar, and an essay on relevant aspects of ancient Greek culture and history. Exercises in translation from English to Greek are integrated throughout.

4.0 out of 5 stars The adult learner's viewpoint., 22 Mar 2004
I started to use Book I in an adult education class and have just graduated to Book II.

The texts are reasonably challenging to the average learner.
The long exposition of the present tense is fair enough and delays the aorist until the reader is ready.
The grammar summary at the back is very good as is the vocabulary
The Greek font used is clear and readable.
The material on Greek civilisation and history is well done.

In short I am finding this a good text to use and look forward to the greater challenge of Book II with confidence gained from Book I.
