Excerpt from Greek Wit: A Collection of Smart Sayings and Anecdotes; Translated From Greek Prose Writers
It is believed that most of these Sayings are not commonly known, nearly all of them being taken from writers little read in the schools. The series might be extended almost indefinitely. Should this little work meet with any success, Part II. Will follow at no long interval.

Greek Wit: A Collection of Smart Sayings and Anecdotes (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book consists of nearly 200 anecdotal sayings taken from a range of ancient Greek authors, many of whom are not commonly taught in schools. These are not literal translations, and the author has sought to present each example concisely, in some instances even abbreviating the originals, in order to convey the essence of each saying in as few words as possible. The author's intention is to present a collection of entertaining and instructive stories that illuminate Greek wit, which the author characterizes as being allied to satire, and often cutting in nature. The reader is likely to find the sayings consistently humorous and thought-provoking, and the collection provides insights into the nature of ancient Greek humor, satire, and didactic storytelling. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781334143403_0
