About the course: In this course, we use intensive review of vocabulary, morphology, and syntax, pragmatics of historical linguistics, exercises in Greek composition, study of prose stylistics, and practice with readings at sight to insure a firm foundation in ancient Greek for those just entering graduate school or otherwise needing a graduate-level review. The course is suitable for first-year graduate students in Classical Studies; or students in ancillary disciplines with advanced Greek but an unsure footing.
