Greek II

Sections and Teachers

Section 1:

Instructor: Bruce McMenomy

Starts: September 5, 2007
Ends: May 28, 2008

Monday 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM ET • Wednesday 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM ET

Tuition: $450.00

This course continues with Units 11-20 of the Hansen and Quinn introductory textbook. By the time they have finished, students should have mastery of a core vocabulary, all significant inflectional forms, and the main syntax of Greek, and be prepared to tackle Attic Greek readings. In the past, students completing only Greek II have tested into upper-division Greek courses in college. The New Testament should also be fairly easy to read at this point.

Prerequisites

Greek I through this program, or some other program offering Hansen and Quinn 1-10. Due to the unusual order of presentation of materials, no other preparation will really be adequate.

Recommended background

Latin is of course helpful, though we do not recomment starting Greek and Latin simultaneously. Considerable attention is given to the task of distinguishing Greek constructions from corresponding constructions in Latin, in order to obviate confusion and also give the student a firm grasp of case origins and usage.

Teacher's notes:

This course will be offered if it receives sufficient enrollment. It is seldom worth starting with fewer than five, since there is a fairly high rate of attrition over the course of the sequence.
