CLASSICAL.

Eschylus.-ÆSCHYLI EUMENIDES. The Greek Text, with English Notes and English Verse, Translation, and an Introduction. By BERNARD DRAKE, M.A., late Fellow of King's College, Cambridge. 8vo.

3s. 6d.

The Greek text adopted in this Edition is based upon that of Wellauer. But advantage has been taken of the suggestions of Hermann, Paley, Linwood, and other commentators. In the Translation, the simple character of the Eschylean dialogues has generally enabled the author to render them without any material deviation from the construction and idioms of the original Greek.

"The Notes are judicious, and, a rare merit in English Notes, not too numerous or too long. A most useful feature in the work is the Analysis of Müller's celebrated dissertations."-BRITISH QUARTERLY Review. Aristotle.

AN INTRODUCTION ΤΟ ARISTOTLE'S RHETORIC. With Analysis, Notes, and Appendices. By E. M. COPE, Senior Fellow and Tutor of Trinity College, Cambridge. 8vo. 135.

The author has aimed to illustrate the general bearings and relations of the Art of Rhetoric in itself, as well as the special mode of treating it

A

adopted by Aristotle in his peculiar system. The evidence upon obscure or doubtful questions connected with the subject is examined; and the relations which Rhetoric bears, in Aristotle's view, to the kindred art of Logic are considered. A connected Analysis of the treatise is given, sometimes in the form of paraphrase; and a few important matters are separately discussed in Appendices. There is added, as a general Appendix, by way of specimen of the antagonistic system of Isocrates and others, a complete analysis of the treatise called Ῥητορικὴ πρὸς ̓Αλέξανδρον, with a discussion of its authorship and of the probable results of its teaching.

ARISTOTLE

ON FALLACIES; OR, THE SOPHISTICI ELENCHI. With a Translation and Notes by EDWARD POSTE, M.A., Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. 8vo. 8s. 6d.

Besides the doctrine of Fallacies, Aristotle offers, either in this treatise or in other passages of his works quoted in the commentary, various glances over the world of science and opinion, various suggestions or problems which are still agitated, and a vivid picture of the ancient system of dialectics. "It is not only scholarlike and careful, it is also perspicuous."-GUARDIAN. It is indeed a work of great skill.”

Blackie.-GREEK AND ENGLISH DIALOGUES FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. By JOHN STUART BLACKIE, Professor of Greek in the University of Edinburgh. Fcap. 8vo. 2s. 6d.

"Why should the old practice of conversing in Latin and Greek be altogether discarded?"-PROFEssor Jowett.

Professor Blackie has been in the habit, as part of the regular training of his class in Edinburgh University, of accustoming the students to converse in Greek. This method he has found to be eminently successful as a means of furnishing the students with a copious vocabulary, training them to use it promptly, confidently, and with correct articulation, and instilling into them an accurate and intelligent knowledge of Greek Grammar, which he hopes may aid other teachers in realizing the same ends. The present little volume furnishes a series of twenty-five graduated dialogues in parallel columns of Greek and English on a great variety of interesting subjects. The author has had the advantage of submitting his work to the judgment of several scholars of repute, both English and Scotch. The GLOBE says: "Professor Blackie's system is sensible; his ook is likely to be useful to teachers of Greek; and his suggestions Table to the learners of any language."

Cicero.-THE SECOND PHILIPPIC ORATION.

With an

Introduction and Notes, translated from the German of KARL HALM. Edited, with Corrections and Additions, by JOHN E. B. MAYOR, M.A., Fellow and Classical Lecturer of St. John's College, Cambridge. Fourth Edition, revised. Fcap. 8vo. 5s. This volume opens with a List of Books useful to the Student of Cicero, and some account of various editions, mostly German, of the works of Cicero. The Introduction is based on Halm. The English editor has further illustrated the work by additions drawn, for the most part, (1) from the ancient authorities; (2) from his own private marginal references, and from collections; (3) from the notes of previous commentators. A copious argument' is also given. "On the whole we have rarely met with an edition of a classical author which so thoroughly fulfils the requirements of a good school-book."-EDUCATIONAL TIMES. A valuable edition," says the ATHENÆUM.

THE ORATIONS OF CICERO AGAINST CATILINA. With Notes and an Introduction. Translated from the German of KARL HALM, with many additions by A. S. WILKINS, M. A. Professor of Latin in Owens College, Manchester. New Edition. Fcap. 8vo. 3s. 6d.

The historical introduction of Mr. Wilkins brings together all the details which are known respecting Catiline and his relations with the great orator. A list of passages where conjectures have been admitted into the text, and also of all variations from the text of Kayser (1862), is added at the end. Finally, the English editor has subjoined a large number of notes, both original and selected, from Curtius, Schleischer, Corssen, and other well-known critics, an analysis of the orations, and an index.

Demosthenes.-DEMOSTHENES ON THE CROWN. The

Greek Text with English Notes. By B. DRAKE, M. A., late Fellow of King's College, Cambridge. Fifth Edition, to which is prefixed ÆSCHINES AGAINST CTESIPHON, with English Notes. Fcap. 8vo. 5s.

An Introduction discusses the immediate causes of the two orations, and their general character. The Notes contain frequent references to the best authorities. Among the appendices at the end is a chronological table of the life and public career of Eschines and Demosthenes. "A neat and useful edition."—ATHENÆUM.
