Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Straight Road to Caesar: For Beginners in Latin The aim of this book is indicated by the title. Caesar is properly the first Latin author read by American students, for no writer illustrates more clearly the spirit and principles of the language. A mastery of Caesar is the best possible foundation for Latin scholarship. But Caesar is too difficult to be read freely and enthusiastically without definite preparation. The road to Caesar should be as direct and easy as a Roman road; it must, however, be long enough to carry the traveller not merely within sight of the city, but to the golden milestone in its very centre. Our plan includes: - 1. An abundance of easy sentences, both English and Latin, for translation. The Latin is to be learned by constant and rapid translation, both Latin-English and English-Latin. The grammar-work is essential; but the grammar is quoted to explain the sentences, not the sentences to illustrate the grammar. The work begins with the sentence and is developed by sentences, so easy at first, and increasing in difficulty so gradually, that the hour of recitation is filled with the rapid practical use of the language. 2. The inductive method, used with moderation. The pupil first sees the Latin word in sentences, and, - in the earlier part of the book, - in all its case-forms; then, and not till then, he is called upon to learn the paradigm. The rules of syntax are developed in a similar way. There is thus, in every moment of study, the "joy of discovery," the "scientific method," laboratory practice. Words, as truly as rocks and flowers, are products of nature; and their right study should cultivate the observing faculties of the young as successfully, and in a very important direction. 3. The use of Caesar's vocabulary and of sentences taken from Caesar. In the choice of words for the earlier pages, we were obliged to take into account not only the frequency of their occurrence in Caesar, but as well, their availability for both paradigms and sentences.

Originally designed for students, this anthology is meant for everyone eager to know more about the history and literature of this period, interested in poetry, philosophy and rhetoric of Ancient Rome. Latin literature is a natural successor of Ancient Greek literature. The beginning of Classic Roman literature dates to 240 BC. From that point on, Latin literature would flourish for the next six centuries.

Consequently, Latin Literature outlived the Roman Empire and it included European writers who followed the fall of the Empire, from religious writers like Aquinas, to secular writers like Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza, and Isaac Newton. This collection presents all the major Classic Roman authors, including Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Horace whose work intrigues and fascinates readers until this day.

Book excerpt: Hermogenes is a young Greek from Alexandria, heir to a noble and vibrant society. But in his youth Hermogenes and his family were held captive to the whims of the queen Cleopatra, whose machinations spelled doom for an entire nation--whose schemes for empire caused the might of Rome to conquer his people. While the citizens of Rome may ape Hellenic ways, the Alexandrian Greeks are viewed as less than human because they are not of Rome. But a man may win the coveted citizenship in more ways than birth on Roman soil. When Hermogenes father is granted such a boon, it appears as if his family has found favor from the gods--except then a business deal goes sour and Hermogenes father dies at sea. It is left to Hermogenes to reclaim all monies owed to the family... including a debt from a very well connected Roman consul who has reneged on his obligations and refuses to deal with "Greek trash." Hermogenes will travel to Rome to reclaim what he is owed and finds it is no simple matter. Along the way, he will encounter base desire and power struggles, plots within plots... and a beautiful woman gladiator who is more than she seems. His life is in danger, and ultimately Hermogenes is left with the question: Can the conferring of a title make one truly Roman? And if not, how far will a man go to satisfy honor?

Book excerpt: Written before, but published after The First World War, this volume's plea for a national system of education which will produce a nation of prosperous, morally fulfilled people able to live at peace with other nations is doubly poignant given the sacrifice of the 'lost generation'. However, the author also sees the horror of the War as an opportunity to change human destiny through education, an opportunity to abandon the narrow system of education in favour of one which will 'bring education in touch with life' and provide Britain with the intellectual and moral efficiency necessary to steer her through the following turbulent years of the twentieth century. Covering the core subjects of the English school curriculum in the early twentieth century the chapters in The Modern Teacher, if somewhat utopian, describe best practice in teaching of the particular subject and suggest possible improvements. One chapter also discusses the importance of the relatively new subject of citizenship, as well as the moral education of pupils.
