A Fundamental Greek Course is designed primarily for those who aim at laying a sound foundation for the study of Classical Greek, and for use by everyone who is fascinated with ancient Greek culture. Suited to advanced college-level and university students, syntactical rules and vocabulary have been carefully devised to give to students formidable panoply for mastery of the intricacies of ancient Greek. This book provides a background for comprehending the language of the eminent prose authors of Classical Greece — Thucydides, Plato, Isocrates, Xenophon, etc., as well as the works in Attic-style of the Hellenistic and Roman epochs, particularly those of the Second Sophistic, Plutarch and Dio Chrysostom, and provides excellent instruction for anyone wishing to study the Greek of the New Testament. The text serves as a stand-alone beginning course text or as a supplementary grammar text for use with any other beginning manual.
