Summary: "Goodwin's Greek Grammar, first published by Macmillan in 1879, revised and enlarged in 1894, has maintained its position as the most comprehensive grammar available to the serious student of the ancient language on both sides of the Atlantic (Goodwin was a Harvard professor). It has never been effectively superseded. An introduction on the language and its dialects is followed by five major parts: letters, syllables and their accentuation; morphology; syntax, including multiple examples (in which the section on verbs summarises the author's authoritative The Syntax of Greek Moods and Tenses); and the metrics of Greek verse. There is also a catalogue of Greek verbs and very full indexes, both Greek and English."-- Provided by the publisher.
