Vox Graeca : The Pronunciation of Classical Greek

Rating:
Summary: Grecai
Review: Not bad for a book, but not the way to learn this. Try "The Pronounciation and Reading of Ancient Greek: A Practical Guide." by Stephen G. Ditz of City College of New York. His "A Recital of Ancient Greek Poetry" is an excellent sampling. Books and cassettes.

Review: The previous reviewer's "not bad for a book" would only serve to humilate him, were he in the company of academics. This isn't a book designed to teach someone how to recite Greek in school. It's a book on Ancient Greek phonology. If you are studying Greek, your textbook and instructor will tell you enough to sound it out. This book is for people interested in deeper, historical issues, not restricted to scholars, but not terribly useful for anyone who doesn't already deal with a fair amount of Ancient Greek. It also happens to be a respected source of information that has seen several editions.
