This course aims to introduce the students to the ancient Greek language by focusing on the study of complex phenomena of ancient Greek grammar and syntax. Its goal is to enable them to engage more effectively with ancient Greek philosophical texts. 

The students, who are expected to know the basics of ancient Greek at their home institutions, will be familiarized with the basic aspects of the ancient Greek language through the process of systematically studying the grammar and syntax of the ancient Greek language, and through the practice of translating selected passages of Ancient Greek philosophical texts. They will also be exposed to the basics of ancient Greek philosophical vocabulary through its systematic study, aided by examples taken from ancient Greek philosophical texts. They will be able to practice the skills they have attained by working on and translating selected passages of Plato’s Apology.
