The module also encourages the development of skills useful for working in groups. In addition, students will be introduced to some aspects of ancient Greek literature and culture.聽

  2. Identify all the basic grammatical forms of ancient Greek
  3. Analyse the main types of clauses and other syntactic constructions of ancient Greek

Module content

The course will proceed by instruction in grammar and practice in translation, initially by completing John Taylor Greek to GCSE Book 2.

The first semester will be devoted to completing study of grammar and syntax, and in the second semester texts read may include a simple Attic or koine prose text e.g. Xenophon, Chariton, Apollodorus. At least one hour per week will be devoted to extending and reviewing knowledge of grammar and syntax.聽

  • where the piece of work is awarded a mark below the threshold pass mark prior to any penalty being imposed, and is submitted up to three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline), no penalty shall be imposed;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.
