Publisher's Synopsis

Cambridge Compositions: Greek And Latin is a book written by Richard Dacre Archer-Hind and published in 1899. The book is a collection of Greek and Latin compositions, which were originally written by students at Cambridge University. The compositions are intended to be used as examples for students who are learning to write in Greek and Latin. The book is divided into two sections, one for Greek compositions and the other for Latin compositions. Each section begins with an introduction that provides some background information on the language and its use in composition. The introductions are followed by a series of compositions, each of which is accompanied by notes and commentary from the author. The compositions cover a wide range of topics, including history, mythology, philosophy, and literature. They are written in a variety of styles, from formal speeches to informal letters. Some of the compositions are quite short, while others are longer and more complex. Overall, Cambridge Compositions: Greek And Latin is a valuable resource for students of Greek and Latin who are looking for examples of well-written compositions. The book provides a glimpse into the writing styles and techniques of students at Cambridge University in the late 19th century, and it offers insights into the study of classical languages and literature during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
