Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2016. XV,298p. Paperback. 'Eleanor Dickey?s new book, An Introduction to the Composition and Analysis of Greek Prose, should be seen not just as a textbook for Greek Composition classes, but a system for how Greek Prose Composition ought to be taught. Rather than simply being given a grammatical topic for review and a number of English sentences to translate at home, the student instead begins with a reduced list of words to memorize actively ahead of time, and only then, after memorizing the words and grammar, turns to the assignment, which is to be done from memory. (.) Dickey?s solution to the problem consists of presenting a finite body of information, large enough to cover all the really important facts but small enough to be memorized in one semester (x). (.) In its goals, precision, and effectiveness, Dickey?s book is the best on the market?in fact, it is hard to imagine a better one. (.) Dickey?s divides the vocabulary chapter by chapter. This seemingly small difference has wide-ranging consequences: it causes the exercises to be more focused (each chapter?s exercises center mainly on the vocabulary of that chapter), it makes the chapters feel more individualized (not just new grammar but new vocabulary), and it gives students a feeling that there is always a right answer?rather than a range of possible ones?since it is always clear what the student is supposed to be practicing in regard to both grammar and vocabulary. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Dickey?s approach facilitates memorization rather than consultation.(.) Dickey dedicates this book to her students, and this devotion to students can be felt on every page. The choices made, the added details, the streamlined exercises all betray her thoughtful care and genuine concern for the student?s experience.' (STEPHEN KIDD in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2017.09.51).
