"Excellent. Makes the ancient Greek language 'come alive' to the modernstudent."--Liane Houghtalin, Randolph-Macon College, "We were especially attracted to the continuously developing story sequence, which teaches culture and history together with grammar and syntax. Our course is intensive, so we will do 26 chapters in 15 weeks."--Victor Udwin, University of Tulsa, "I have taught Classical Greek from many other grammars in many different places, but Balme and Lowell's Athenaze is far and away the best of them all."--Howard Jackson, Pomona College, "I am using these texts [Athenaze and the OLC] and the students love them. They like the idea of being able to read immediately....I will continue to use these publications in my courses."--Sr. M. Regina Pacis, OSF, Franciscan University of Steubenville, "This extensively revised and expanded version includes many of the features of the original, but is much more stylishly produced and a great deal easier to read....Well worth looking into."--JACT Review, "The only Greek text I know that I can imagine being used successfully in high schools as well as in colleges....The Classics community owes Maurice Balme, Gilbert Lawall, and the Oxford University Press a large debt of gratitude for producing this very useful text."--The ClassicalOutlook, "My students and I have both enjoyed using this text. The readings are fun, and the integration of reading, grammar, and cultural materials is remarkable, far above anything in any other elementary Greek or Latin text."--George Houston, University of North Carolina, "This extensively revised and expanded version includes many of thefeatures of the original, but is much more stylishly produced and a great dealeasier to read....Well worth looking into."--JACT Review, "I have taught Classical Greek from many other grammars in many differentplaces, but Balme and Lowell's Athenaze is far and away the best of themall."--Howard Jackson, Pomona College, "My students and I have both enjoyed using this text.

Synopsis
Combining the best features of traditional and modern methods, Athenaze: An Introduction to Ancient Greek provides a unique course of instruction that allows students to read connected Greek narrative right from the beginning and guides them to the point where they can begin reading complete classical texts. Ingeniously constructed to hold students' interest, the course begins with a fictional narrative about an Attic farmer's family placed in precise historical context (432 B.C.) that students can understand prior to formal grammatical explanation. The narrative is interwoven with tales from mythology and the Persian Wars, and gradually gives way to extracts from Herodotus, Plato, and Thucydides. In the last two chapters the head of the peasant family reappears in his original incarnation as Dicaeopolis in scenes from Aristophanes' Acharnians. 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, including particularly useful sets on word-building, that help students to recognize new words when they encounter them, and in word study, which show the relationship between Greek words and their English derivatives, making the importance of Greek language to Western culture clear to the student. With its unique combination of features and lucid presentation of material, Athenaze: An Introduction to Ancient Greek helps students learn to read Greek fluently, with an intelligent understanding based on a firm grasp of its cultural and historical context, while at the same time demanding high standards of linguistic precision., Combining the best features of traditional and modern methods, Athenaze: An Introduction to Ancient Greek provides a unique course of instruction that allows students to read connected Greek narrative right from the beginning and guides them to the point where they can begin reading complete classical texts.

    Great seller, good value. The book arrived ina timely manner although I didn't understand why usps shipping routed the order out of state and then back when I live in the same city. I guess that's how the routes are set up. Anyhow. Good packaging although some bubble would be appreciated, it came in good condition, as described and definitely a valuable purchase. Thank you & God Bless 🙌

    The book looks to be in good condition. I cannot figure out eBay shipping; I ordered 2 of these books from different sellers on the same day and one arrived in 5 days and this one in 8 days. Curious, but regardless this will be a perfect Christmas gift as we've lost a brother this year. It was packaged securely and was described appropriately. A very reasonable price - thank you.
