Böcker i BCP Advanced Language S.-serien

The aim of this title is to provide a reference work for both students and teachers on every kind of Latin metre from the early "saturnian" to medieval accentual verse. The information provided aims to be in its simplest form to make the subject more accessible and jargon free.

First published in 1952, this study discusses the development of Greek prose during the fifth century and analyzes its use of abstract forms of expression, word-order, sentence structure, use of repetition, asyndeton and assonance.

In 1882, D.B. Munro wrote that "a new Grammar of the Homeric dialect is sorely wanted". Monro's 2nd edition (1891), long out of print, is presented here in full, providing a comprehensive account of Homeric Greek grammar.

The order of words in a Greek sentence is much freer and less predictable than in most European languages. This book explains and illustrates the principles which govern word order in Greek.

In the ADVANCED LANGUAGE series, this new edition of the 3rd revised is the standard introduction and reference work on questions of dialect. Its virtues are comparative clarity and conciseness on a subject too often treated, for example by contemporary work in German, with prolixity and obscurity.

This is a comparative approach to Greek and Latin grammar and serves to introduce students to the syntax of both languages side by side.
