MACMILLANS ELEMENTARY CLA6SICS. i8mo. ij. 6d. each.


This Series falls into two classes

(i) First Reading Books for Beginners,


provided not only with Introductions and
Notes, but with Vocabularies, and in some
cases with Exercises based upon the Text.
(2) Stepping-stones to the study of par^
ticular authors, intended for more advanced
students, who are beginning to read such
authors as Terence, Plato, the Attic Dramatists, and the harder parts of Cicero, Horace,
Virgil, and Thucydides.
These are provided with Introductions and
Notes, but no Vocabulary. The Publishers
have been led to provide the more strictly
Elementary Books with Vocabularies by the
representations of many teachers, who hold
that beginners do not understand^ the use of
a Dictionary, and of others who, in the case
of middle-class schools where the cost pf
books is a serious consideration, advocate the
Vocabulary system on grounds of economy.
