About
Athenaze: An Introduction to Ancient Greek was developed under the auspices of the Joint Association of Classical Teachers in the United Kingdom and published by Oxford University Press. The program uses a continuous narrative set in a Greek farming village in classical Athens to introduce Attic Greek grammar and vocabulary organically through reading rather than through decontextualized grammar tables. Two volumes cover the introductory year, bringing students to the reading level of simplified and then original classical Greek texts. Athenaze is used in classical high schools, universities, and by advanced homeschool students seeking a reading-based approach to Greek.
