Beginning Greek with Homer by Frank Beetham

This is a course for those who wish to read Homer in the original tongue but know no Greek, or are only just beginning to work through a course in Classical Greek and wish to read Homer from a very early stage. It assumes no previous knowledge of Greek. The first six sections of the book deal with the fundamental elements of grammar that are a necessary preliminary to study. From the seventh section onwards the course proceeds through the "Odyssey", Book Five, with grammatical explanations and exercises. It provides an introduction not only to the Greek language but also to one of the great classics of world literature.
Frank Beetham taught classics at Blackpool Grammar School, and adult language learning at the Universities of Warwick and Birmingham. He was Senior Education Officer in Warwickshire, responsible for Secondary, Further and Adult Education. His publications include An Introduction to New Testament Greek and a tutor's manual for the same book.
