SCHOOL AND COLLEGE BOOKS.

Just published by J. A. VALPY, M.A., Red Lion-court,
Flee-street, London, and may be had of all Booksellers.
QCHOOL and COLLEGE GREEK
ts--, CLASSICS, with ENGLISH NOTES, QUES-
TIONS, &c.
At the express desire of many eminent Schoolmasters,
Mr. VALPY has commenced the publication of a SERIES
of such portions of the GREEK AUTHORS as are chiefly
read in the upper classes of Schools and in Colleges. The
best Texts are adopted, and the Critical and Explanatory
Notes are presented, it is presumed, in a more inviting and
accessible form than those of Latin Commentators, by
avoiding that profuseness of annotation which frequently
anticipates the ingenuity, supersedes the industry, and re-
tards rather than promotes the improvement of the pupil.
Examination questions, adapted to the points discussed in
the Notes, and Indexes, are also added ; and the Series, it
is hoped, will constitute a convenient introduction to the
niceties and elegancies of Greek Literature, and to the
perusal of that portion of the relics of antiquity which is
best calculated to interest a youthful mind.
Each Volume will be sold separately ; and it is intended
that all shall be published in a cheap duodecimo form.
