The Textbook Section for Greek Textbooks

There are several hundred books listed in the textbook section. Select a sequence to review a list of the courses and textbooks for that sequence. You may browse through the entire section if you want to see all our text choices by clicking on "Textbooks", but please be aware that this may take significant time to load and you must be patient.

Text titles in the list display link directly to Amazon's page for the work, or to an alternate source if the item is not available from Amazon.

During the early part of the calendar year, the bookstore may list textbooks for courses from both the current academic year, and the upcoming summer and fall academic years. Not all textbooks will be listed until teachers approve course descriptions and select their books. Be sure that you order books for the correct enrollment year.

Courses in Greek

Greek I • [2019] Sarah Esposito

Required	*Greek: An Intensive Course [Edition required: 2]* Hardy Hansen, Gerald M. Quinn Notes: This is the second revised edition. Please note. Earlier editions are not going to work for us. You may choose to get instead the hardback copy of the second edition, but that's up to you.
Optional	*Greek New Testament: With English Introduction including Greek/English dictionary [Edition required: 4]* Kurt Aland (editor) Notes: This is optional, but our students often ask for a recommendation for a Greek New Testament. Most students can read it reasonably easily by the end of the first year, with just the help of some vocabulary support.

Greek II • [2019] Sarah Esposito

Required	*Greek: An Intensive Course [Edition required: 2]* Hardy Hansen, Gerald M. Quinn Notes: Second revised edition. Hardcover version may be substituted. The student probably already has this from Greek I.
Optional	*Greek New Testament: With English Introduction including Greek/English dictionary [Edition required: 4]* Kurt Aland (Editor) Notes: Optional though recommended: regular reading in the Greek New Testament is an excellent way to bolster one's Greek and to achieve a better mastery of Scripture.

Greek III • [2019] Bruce McMenomy

Required	*A Greek Reader for Schools [Any edition]* C. E. Freeman, W. D. Lowe Notes: This is a reprint of a much older book, but still a solid selection of readings which are both entertaining and conducive to the development of fluency. Most of the passages have been edited somewhat from their original forms (Herodotus' Ionic dialect has been systematically Atticized throughout), but the work is solid and tractable.
Required	*Plato: Apology [Any edition]* Plato, James J. Helm (Editor)
Required	*Syntactical Mechanics [Any edition]* Bruce A. McMenomy
Optional	*All the Greek Verbs [Any edition]* N. Marinone Notes: Not required, but this volume is worth its weight in frustration: it locates verbs according to their (often wildly divergent) principal parts.
Optional	*An Intermediate Greek-English Lexicon, Founded upon the 7th ed. of Liddell and Scott's Greek-English Lexicon [Any edition]* H. G. Liddell, Robert Scott Notes: This is enough of a Greek lexicon to carry the student through an undergraduate career in classics and well into graduate school. It is not required for this course, but it will always be helpful and will not quickly become obsolete. It is worth noting that there are iPad and iPhone/iPod Touch versions of the full Liddell and Scott (which retails for about $200 if you can find it on sale) for two or three dollars. If you have the necessary hardware, this is a very congenial solution to the lexicon problem.
Optional	*Greek Grammar [Any edition]* Herbert Weir Smyth, Gordon M. Messing Notes: Not absolutely required, but very strongly recommended. If you have funds to buy only one non-required volume for Greek, this should be it. Revised edition.

Greek VI • [2019] Bruce McMenomy

Required

Gorgias [Any edition]
Plato, E. R. Dodds, ed.
