Omschrijving

A Greek Reader gathers the voices of ancient Greece into a single, approachable companion for reading and study. Read it with steady delight. Edited in the tradition of clear scholarship, H. D. Rouse curates a compact ancient Greek literature anthology that balances accessible Greek prose and poetry with selections that illuminate myth, history and public life. The reader functions as both a classical Greek language reader and a readable Greek prose and poetry collection - suitable for classroom use and for the curious general reader. Passages range from the vivid storytelling of Homer to the enquiring prose of Herodotus, and the collection underscores themes of heroism, civic duty, fate and the gods. Its design supports learners and lovers alike: serious students will find a rigorous companion for language work, while casual readers encounter direct, authoritative texts that reward curiosity rather than specialism. Teachers and independent learners have found it a reliable language learning resource and a welcoming introduction to Greek mythology stories; it also reads well aloud, a reminder that these ancient Greece texts were composed for performance and public life. Historically important as a bridge between classroom work and wider reading, this selection has long served students of classical era literature and those exploring classical civilisation studies. Valuable as a language learning resource and a practical self-study Greek textbook, it adapts well to the high school classics curriculum while also answering the needs of university courses and independent readers. It brings together accessible ancient Greece texts and famed Homer and Herodotus selections so that Greek classics for students read as living literature rather than relics. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, this edition offers both study-worth and shelf-worth: the pleasure of stories and the rigour of a trusted academic reader.
