Excerpt from Connected Passages For Latin Prose Writing: With Full Introductory Notes On Idiom IN planning the present book it has been the aim of the authors to present within two covers all the essential apparatus for the writ ing of average passages in Latin prose. By including in the N otes ou Idiom the requisite body of syntax, stated from the point of view of the student who is to write Latin, they have dispensed with the ordinary system of reference to three or four Latin grammars. They believe that in this way not only much time will be saved, but that the added convenience will produce more accurate results, since both student and teacher may refer instantly to the state ment of any of the ordinary principles involved. The ad��ition of the Latin text tends to the same end, and it is hoped that for the exercises contained in this volume the student will rarely find ir necessary to refer to anything not included in the volume itself. The book is not intended to teach how to write isolated sentences illustrative of given constructions, but it assumes that the pupil, after a year or more of such practice (the time varying in differ ent schools), is ready to learn the art of writing connected narra tive in Latin. Recognizing that, in order to attain perfection in writ�ng any language, good models must be studied, the authors have based their exercises ou Caesar, Nepos, and Cicero, such selections from these writers being taken as are usually read in schools. About a page of Latin text serves as a model for each exercise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
