CLARK, Edinburgh. Edited for the use of Schools, with Notes, Introduction, and Appendices, etc., By E. G. HARDY, M.A., Head Master of the Grammar School, Grantham, and late Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford. Third Edition. Fcap. 8vo. 5s. [Macmillan's Classical Series. The Athenæum says:-'Within the narrow lines marked out for himself by the compiler the notes are carefully written. The text is clear, and is divided by English headings into short sections. The index is so full as to be the most useful part of the work to advanced scholars. With passmen the edition ought to be popular.' The Saturday Review says:-'The system which Mr. Hardy has adopted in his Satires of Juvenal is to cut up the text with English "cross-headings" of argument. It is certain that this is a great assistance to the duller sort of boy, who is frequently hopelessly puzzled by Juvenal's abrupt turns and transitions, and who bores through his twenty lines, or whatever it may be, without a glimmering of the general drift. The notes are abundant, if anything too abundant, and they are supplemented by a glossary of rarer words." The Guardian says:-'Seems well adapted for boys brief and to the point.' Mr. Hardy's notes are The Journal of Education says:- Mr. Hardy is something of an authority upon classical history, and we are glad to recognise the accuracy and fulness of such parts of his small commentary as deal with Roman politics, social customs, mythology, and archæology. The statement is always clear, generally concise, and seldom dull; and he has had the self-restraint only to draw upon his knowledge for such facts as were required for elucidation of the text; he has not made chance allusions the pegs for long dissertations upon connected or unconnected topics to hang by. He tells his readers just enough upon such points as the social influence of Greek adventurers, the theories of the current systems of philosophy, the development and degradation of the Sportula, and the importance of the Circus factions in the days of the early emperors. He explains legal points such as the Jus Testandi with sufficient clearness, and gives useful diagrams of a Roman dinner-party and theatre, as well as of the breakwater, porrecta bracchia rursum. As a whole this edition is well adapted to the purpose for which it was designed, to be a text-book for the higher forms in schools and for pass candidates at the Universities.' The Schoolmaster says :-'An admirable edition. an excellent series.' This is an excellent volume of The Scotsman says:-The volume is an excellent example of that best kind of editorship of the classics which compels the student to work and think for himself, and only gives him such assistance as will facilitate his labours.' ... The Glasgow Herald says:-'It is admirably suited for the higher forms in schools, and also for the Universities. The notes are most copious, meeting grammatical difficulties and clearing up historical allusions. One feature of the appendix is a vocabulary with explanations of the rarer words. There is also a complete general index.' MACMILLAN AND CO., LONDON. |
