FOR ENGLISH READERS. 6 1 



XV.-HESIOD AND THEOGNIS. 



By the Rev. J. Davis, M.A. 

 " If all the other works of this series are written with the same ability 

 as ' Hesiod, ' and ' Theognis, ' a very valuable addition, in an unpretend- 

 ing form, will have been made to the literature of the country."— .Sute;-- 

 day Review^ 



XVI -PLAUTUS AND TERENCE. 



By THE Editor. 



" One of the very best of this admirable series that has yet come 

 under our notice. For the first time, indeed, fhe true meaning and 

 purpose of the worlss of the two oldest Latin di^matists are thoroughly 

 investigated, whilst the elegance of their phraseology and tlfe unity of 

 their design are equally exeniplified." — Bell's Weekly Messenger. 



XVII.-TACITUS. ' * 



. ' By W. B. Donne. , 



"Mr Donne's sketch of the life and writings of Tacitus is worthy of 

 the excellent seri^ of ' Ancient Classics ' to which it belongs. It is 

 evident that Mr Donne has studied his author deeply and thoroughly, 

 at once recognising his defects and appreciating his merits. The little 

 work before us is a brief but perspicuous summary of the works of the 

 great historian, calculated not only to interest the English readers, for 

 whom it is primarily intended, but also to assist the student who is 

 anxious to make himself acquainted withfthe history of the first century 

 after Christ. . . . We anticipate for the work a great success." — 

 Athen(Bum, 



XVIII. -LUCI AN. 



By THE Editor. • 



' ' The whole series hitherto has been well done, this volume espeflally 

 so. " — Westminster Review, • 



*• X I X.-P L A T O. 



By Clifton^^W. Colmns, M.A. * 



" In the main, we must congratulate Mr Collins on his success. We 

 know no book of anything like this brevity and cheapness from wfcich a 

 man, reading merely for general information's sake, would get so good 

 a notion of Plato's position in thought and Uteiatme." —London Quar- 

 terlf Review. , , " , 



XX.-THE GREEK ANTHOLOGY, ' '* 



By Lord Neaves. > 



"Of all the 'Ancient Classics for English Readers' that have 'been 

 published, this volumg is in our opinion the most fascinating and suit- 

 abl* foi^feeneral ESrusal. It gives the most-complete and varied, the 

 most life-like and sympathetic view of Greek thought, habits, manners, 

 and cus<6ms. " — Morning A dvertiser. *"
