OCR Anthology for Classical Greek GCSE 2025-2026 by Judith Affleck
This is the OCR-endorsed edition covering the Greek GCSE set text prescriptions examined from 2025 to 2026. The texts covered are: Homer Iliad VI, lines 370-413 and 429-502 Herodotus Sections XIa (First Capture of Babylon), XII (Rebuff to Darius), XIII (The Babylonian Wife Market), XIVb (Megacles’ marriage) Euripides Medea, lines 230-291 and 358-409 Xenophon The Persian Expedition, Chapter 8: The Battle of Cunaxa (omitting 8:8-10) The volume starts with an introduction to ancient Greek history and culture, which sets in context the passages for the exams and gives guidance on how to translate ancient Greek. The prescribed texts are set out in clear passages facing commentary notes, with further information on GCSE vocabulary and key terms as well as study questions. The full GCSE vocabulary is provided at the back of the book and a timeline, Who's Who, glossaries and map combine to give students a focused preparation for their exams. Supplementary resources are available on the Companion Website: https://www.bloomsbury.pub/OCR-editions-2024-2026
This anthology would be a welcome addition to students and teachers working on the OCR Greek GCSE course.. It would certainly aid students who can work independently as the colour-coding of the nominative and the verb in each sentence together with a detailed glossary with each text and the background information allow concentration on the ‘few unknowns’ that remain. -- John Hunt * The Journal of Classics Teaching *
