Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lexilogus: Or a Critical Examination of the Meaning and Etymology of Numerous Greek Words and Passages, Intended Principally for Homer and Hesiod
A translator is generally expected to preface his Work by some account of his Author, and some expla nation of his subject. In the present instance infor mation on either of these points is less than usually requisite. With regard to the former, the name of Buttmann needs no introduction wherever ancient Greek is studied; and for the latter, the Author's own Preface will explain the nature of his Work far better than can be done for him. A few words on one or two minor de tails are all therefore which can be necessary.
