Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of classical education, drawing upon the author's decades of experience teaching Greek and Latin to students in a university environment. The author emphasizes, through numerous examples, the importance of personal reading and study to students as they delve into the subject matter. The body of the book is devoted to arguments, illustrated with examples from ancient sources, in favor of extensive reading of Greek and Latin classics and an emphasis on understanding the historical context of ancient literature, encouraging students to immerse themselves in the lives and works of ancient authors to fully appreciate their contributions. The author includes suggestions for independent study on specific authors and topics and even posits that students can learn foreign languages such as Italian, Spanish, or Dutch entirely on their own if they start with a knowledge of Latin or Greek. Concluding, the author reminds the reader of the importance of constantly revisiting ancient source material, as new perspectives can always be gleaned from engaging with the original texts of Greek and Roman literature.
