Courses and Papers
Intermediate Ancient Greek(This subject is not available to candidates with a qualification in ancient Greek above AS-level or equivalent.)
Candidates will be required to show an intermediate level knowledge of Greek grammar and vocabulary (including all syntax and morphology, as laid out in Abbot and Mansfield, Primer of Greek Accidence).
The set texts for the course are: Xenopho Hellenica I (Oxford Classical Text) and Lysias I (Oxford Classical Text). The paper will consist of a passage of unseen prose translation, three further passages for translation from the two prescribed texts, and grammatical questions on the prescribed texts.
Useful editions with commentaries:
Xenophon, Hellenika I-II.3.10, ed. P. Krentz (Warminster: Aris and Phillips, 1989);
Lysias: Selected Speeches, ed. C. Carey (Cambridge: CUP, 1989).
Not all courses and papers are available in every year. The authoritative information about courses and papers can be found in the University's
Examination Decrees and Regulations, published with changes each October; the version published in the October a student begins a course will be authoritative for the examinations which that student takes at the end of the course.
