More Links

Everyone in the class should join our Quizlet class, Hansen and Quinn Greek: An Intensive Course (using this link will allow you admission to the course automatically).

Hear spoken Greek from Princeton's Classical Language Instruction Project; try Plato for prose, Homer (in both Erasmic and reconstructed-with-pitch versions) and Pindar for poetry.
