Sinopsis

Excerpt from A First Latin Writer

The reason why these omissions have been made is that the writer has found that if with a given rule too many exceptions have been included, his younger pupils' minds have had so much to assimilate that a general confusion has been the result. The fundamental rule has become so entangled with exceptions that it has Often been lost sight Of altogether.

It is the intention Of this book, therefore, to set forth in a simple way, which can be easily understood by the youngest pupil, those rules Of Latin composition which are absolutely necessary to the grammatical rendering Of English into Latin prose.

Excerpt from A First Latin Writer

This book is not an exhaustive text-book on Latin composition. It is intended for the use of beginners; that is, for those who, having completed the study of some first-year Latin book, are in a position to take up the study of the manner in which a connected passage of English prose should be translated into Latin.

In this book, therefore, the fundamental rules, and those only, have been dealt with; exceptions, unless of great importance, have been disregarded; phrases and constructions of infrequent occurrence have been omitted.

The reason why these omissions have been made is that the writer has found that if with a given rule too many exceptions have been included, his younger pupils' minds have had so much to assimilate that a general confusion has been the result. The fundamental rule has become so entangled with exceptions that it has often been lost sight of altogether.

It is the intention of this book, therefore, to set forth in a simple way, which can be easily understood by the youngest pupil, those rules of Latin composition which are absolutely necessary to the grammatical rendering of English into Latin prose.

The subject-matter of the compositions has been taken from the second book of Caesar's "Gallic War." The vocabularies and examples have been, for the most part, taken from that book.
