Publisher's Synopsis
Progressive Exercises in Latin Elegiac Verse is a book written by Charles Granville Gepp in 1874. The book is a collection of exercises designed to help students learn how to write Latin elegiac verse, a form of poetry that was popular in ancient Rome. The exercises are arranged in a progressive manner, starting with simple exercises and gradually increasing in difficulty. The book includes an introduction that explains the rules of Latin elegiac verse, as well as examples of the form from ancient Roman poets such as Ovid and Catullus. The exercises themselves are designed to help students develop their skills in meter, rhyme, and syntax, and are accompanied by notes and explanations to help students understand the rules and principles of the form. The book is intended for use by students of Latin at all levels, from beginners to advanced students, and provides a comprehensive and practical guide to mastering the art of Latin elegiac verse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
