PREFACE
THIS Reader was meant to be used with my First Greek
Course, as supplementing the pieces of Greek there given ; it
may, however, follow any beginner's book of Greek, as soon as
the elementary grammar has been learnt.
All the pieces in this book (except some of the comic
fragments) are complete in themselves, and present a unity
of action or thought, if they are sometimes abstracted
from a larger whole. They are of three kinds. First, there
are pieces of simple verse : such as the Anacreontea, the
fragments of comedy, the epigrams from the Anthology, the
Swallow Song. Secondly, simple narratives and dialogues in
prose : for this section I found the statements of case in the
orators, and the openings of Plato's dialogues, most useful.
The orators in particular supply a series of very dramatic
scenes, which have the advantage of being closely in touch
with life, and are therefore well suited for beginners. One
short specimen is given from Lucian, but no more, since his
Dialogues, with omissions, form an admirable Reader by
themselves. For the same reason, Herodotus has been left
untouched
;
in some shape his work ought to be read within
the first two years of Greek. Lastly, a number of pieces have
been chosen for their bearing on the daily life of the Greeks :
two private letters, some descriptions of street scenes and the
like, proverbs and riddles, and the extracts from Hippocrates
and Oribasius. My attention was first called to Oribasius by
Prof. U. von Wilamowitz - Mollendorff; and I think the
v
VI GREEK READER
extracts given are of great interest : we see the daily life
of the Greek gentleman, and the training of his sons, very
clear before us. If the style of these pieces is not so elegant
as Plato, it is admirably lucid, and I cannot help thinking that
boys who could write as good Greek would be not unwelcome
in an English school on their merits. Hippocrates is more
than a physician ; he is a philosopher and a man of letters,
besides being a singularly noble and dignified figure. Those
who may disapprove of such authors in a schoolbook, may
leave them alone
;
for my part, I find the extracts not only
worth reading, but very useful as material for original com-
position, in a style which is perhaps meant to be better.
I hope no one will object to the presence of Euclid i. i
because it does not fit into any of the above classes.
Very little change has been made in the text beyond
shortening. Attic forms have replaced Ionic or Doric : and
the grammatical blunders of the Egyptian schoolboy have been
tacitly corrected. Although his schoolmaster is unknown, I
think it would be unkind to expose the shortcomings of a
colleague. For the father I have no sympathy; and I feel
sure that the mother was not blameless.
I have plenty of material for another Reader, of quite a
different kind, if this should prove to be interesting. But
really, if any one wants a piece of advice gratis, I offer him
this : Buy a dozen copies of all the Greek texts you can lay
hands on, and keep them in your class-room ; from these
make your own Reader, by handing them round and reading
out the piece of your choice on the spot ; no Reader of mine
will be wanted then. And when I say reading, I mean read-
ing ; not translating. But this brings in King Charles's head,
and I will only add, that if you wish your pupils of all ages to
understand Greek, and to enjoy it, this is the way.
