Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Latin Prose Composition: With Exercises on Caesar, Livy and Cicero
This book contains two parts. Part I. Consists of a concise and simple statement of the main principles of Latin syntax, with illus trations and exercises. The rules of Syntax are not intended to be learned by heart they are to be studied carefully in connection with the illustrations, many of which should be committed to memory. The exercises have been made longer than is customary, in order to afford a wider scope for selection. A knowledge, on the part of the pupil, ofthe Latin declensions and conjugations is presupposed. The authorities followed in the treatment of Latin Syntax are mainly Madvig, Roby, Kennedy, Bradley, and Hime. A few sections have been added on Latin Style, for which we are mainly indebted to the works of Bradley, Potts, Postgate, N ixon, Klotz, and Nagelsbach.
