Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Latin Composition for Classes Reading Caesar

In addition to the general vocabulary at the end of the book, common words have been grouped together in the special vocabularies which should be committed to mem ory as a part of each lesson.

The object, then, of the book is to guide the pupil along the beginning of the road to a knowledge of Latin. It will not have failed entirely of its purpose if it does noth ing more than teach a proper regard for the concords.

Excerpt from Latin Composition for Classes Reading Caesar

This little book has grown out of a need felt in my own Caesar classes for some easy but systematic work in Latin Composition. Its purpose is not to present in most comprehensive fashion all the peculiarities of Latin syntax, but by constant repetition to fix in the student's mind some of the simplest constructions of nouns and verbs. All special grammatical notes in the several lessons have been omitted, that the pupil may early form the habit of constant reference to his grammar. Since the book is to be used in connection with Caesar, the constructions emphasized are those recurring most frequently in his text. Imperatives and independent subjunctives have therefore been lightly touched upon. The more difficult varieties of final and consecutive clauses and of relative sentences have been purposely omitted, from the conviction that the child should understand the rule before he considers its exceptions.

The finding of phrases illustrative of the principles of syntax introduced in each lesson has been left to the teacher as a valuable class-room exercise. It has been my own practice to have the sections marked "Class Work" written without the aid of the grammar, making each pupil depend for forms and rules entirely upon his own memory. I have also found that a clear tabular statement of the principles studied, with the proper references to the grammar, is of great help in reviewing.
