Book 1. Featuring new vocabulary, full explanations of new grammar, and a variety of exercises, Athenaze, 2/e enables users to read connected Greek narrative right from the beginning and guides them to the point where they can start reading complete classical texts. It begins with a fictional narrative about an Attic farmer's family placed in a precise historical context (432-431 B.C.) and goes on to interweave tales from mythology and the Persian Wars, leading to adapted passages from Thucydides, Plato, and Herodotus. It also incorporates short Greek readings drawn from various classical authors and from the New Testament, and includes the opening lines of the Iliad and the Odyssey.
