Orberg Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2005 A great learning technique. Dick and Jane for Latin. Maybe it's me, but I have a hard time learning languages. I learned only one language as a child, rendering me totally and utterly monolinguistic. I've tried learning languages using various methods, but none struck me as particularly effective. So when I found the need to have some familiarity with Latin, I looked at Latin language books and courses, and rejected one after the other as being ...             Lingua Latina Part II: Roma Aeterna (Latin Edition) Hans H.

Pullins Co., 2008 Aristophanes's farcical attempt at dramatic criticism On the one hand Aristophanes's comedy "The Frogs" is a farce, but it is of more interest because it presents the earliest known example of dramatic criticism. Presented in 405 B.C., the play tells of how Dionysus, the god of drama, had to go to Hades to fetch back Euripides, who died the previous year, because Athens no longer had any great tragic poets left. The first part of the comedy ...             Lingua Latina: Pars I: Familia Romana (Latin Edition) (Pt. 1)16 reviews Hans Orberg Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2006 5 Stars, but with a warning . . . I'm teaching my 10 and 8 year-olds Latin at home, and have tried several approaches, including Rosetta Stone, Minimus, traditional Latin books, etc. I am not a Latin teacher - I had two years of Latin in High School, 30 years ago. I am not a professional - I'm just a regular guy. Lingua Latina works best for me, by far, with the following warning: My kids found the concepts of shifting ...             Aristotle Nicomachean Ethics3 reviews Joe Sachs, Aristotle Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2008 Doing the right thing Aristotle was a philosopher in search of the chief good for human beings. This chief good is eudaimonia, which is often translated as 'happiness' (but can also be translated as 'thriving' or 'flourishing'). Aristotle sees pleasure, honour and virtue as significant 'wants' for people, and then argues that virtue is the most important of these. In the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle makes the ...             Greek Paradigm Handbook2 reviews Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2008 Great Resource O Greek learner, this is a gem worth worlds.

Pullins Co., 2004 The best entry into Epic Greek language If you want to read ancient texts in Greek, the best way, now pleasantly-surprisingly feasible with this book, is to start in Homer (however many individuals you believe actually composed the works under that name). I say this for two reasons: 1. Literarily, Homer's works function in almost all ancient Greek and Roman literature in the same way that the King James Bible and Shakespeare's works ...             Plato's Gorgias & Aristotle's Rhetoric Joe Sachs, Plato, ... Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2008 By pairing translations of Gorgias and Rhetoric, along with an outstanding introductory essay, Joe Sachs demonstrates Aristotle s response to Plato. If in the Gorgias Plato probes the question of what is problematic in rhetoric, in Rhetoric, Aristotle continues the thread by looking at what makes rhetoric useful. By juxtaposing the two texts, an interesting conversation is illuminated one which students of philosophy and rhetoric will find key ...             Cinema for Spanish Conversation, 2nd Ed.

Edwards Focus Publishing/R. Pullins Co., 2007 A useful book - BUT DON'T EXPECT BOOKS FROM THE ILIAD!!! OK, this isn't a detailed review. The book is a nice large (A4) size, ideal for scribbling notes in. It's well laid out, with new vocabulary introduced above each piece of text. There's a useful appendix of Homeric grammar, but be assured you would be better to have a more complete grammar alongside as well.
