The Greek War of Independence (1821-1827)

Gelesen von Ariphron

Written in the style and language of Thucydides, and intended for students in the early stages of learning to read Ancient Greek, this brief history of the war, in four parts, is based on standard nineteenth-century accounts, both in English and Puristic Greek.

The Greek text is preceded by a preface in English and followed by extensive notes, also in English, that provide both historical background and grammatical explanations. - Summary by Ariphron (4 hr 27 min)
