Description

A New Latin Syntax by E.C. Woodcock provides a comprehensive historical account of the chief Latin construction. The book is structured into 25 chapters that can be used as a progressive revision course for Advanced Level and University students. The author's approach focuses on providing historical explanations rather than relying on statistical rules, which often leave unexplained exceptions. This approach equips students with the tools to interpret texts and write correct Latin. The book includes literary examples from authors such as Plautus to Tacitus, making it a valuable resource for both students and teachers. The inclusion of an index of passages quoted in the book makes it useful as a work of reference for those looking to study or teach Latin syntax.
