Lectures on the Greek Language and Literature (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover

Excerpt from Lectures on the Greek Language and Literature

About to 'speak of the value of Grecian Lite rature, considered in itself, or compared with that of modern times and of the relative importance of classical and scientific studies I am sensible that I undertake no easy task. The difficulty of treating worthily a subject increases together with its importance, and in proportion too as a theme has become trite from frequent handling, it will be easy, indeed, to speak concerning it, but hard to say any thing that shall be new.
