Charles Wordsworth's Graecae Grammaticae Rudimenta in Usum Scholarum was, for decades, the foundational Greek grammar in England. Wordsworth, a nephew of the poet, a master at Winchester College and later bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld, and Dublane, used his expertise in teaching the classical languages to produce a clear, practical introduction to Greek, beginning with the alphabet and progressing through the declension of nouns and adjectives, the conjugations of verbs, and the fundamentals of syntax. In striving not to replace the standard Eton Grammar but rather to refine and revise it, Wordsworth succeeded in composing a book that one fellow master called 'most distinct, easy of conception for the boys, and lucidly arranged'. This ninth edition (1853) includes the author's full emendations to the text.

Print on Demand. This book collects sources of Roman civil law originating from a period when the laws were largely unwritten and articulated through responses to specific cases. It presents substantial excerpts from the writings of eminent Roman jurists, such as Gaius, whose systematic and in-depth knowledge of the Roman legal system shaped the nature of Roman jurisprudence for centuries to come. The collected texts provide a valuable window into the development of Roman law, and the evolution of some of its core principles that still find application in contemporary legal systems, offering researchers a comprehensive resource for exploring the origins and evolution of Western jurisprudence.

For more than a decade the Mexico City–based artist, architect, and cultural agent Pedro Reyes has been turning existing social problems into opportunities for effecting tangible change through collective imagination. By breaking open failed models and retooling them with space to project alternatives, Reyes’s art enables productive diversions of otherwise destructive forces. Ad Usum: To Be Used is the second volume in the series Focus on Latin American Art and Agency, which is dedicated to contemporary cultural agents, a term that is perhaps best understood through the words of Reyes himself: “changing our individual habits has no degree of effectiveness” as “progress is only significant if you start to multiply by 10, by 100, by 1,000.” Rather than merely illustrate his work, this collection of images, interviews, and critical essays is intended as an apparatus for multiplying the possibilities when art becomes a resource for the common good.This full-color illustrated survey of Reyes’s projects includes critical essays by José Luis Falconi, Robin Greeley, Johan Hartle, Adam Kleinman, and Doris Sommer, as well as interviews between the artist and such seminal thinkers as Lauren Berlant, Michael Hardt, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Antanas Mockus.

It is designed for the pockets and handbags of visitors to Rome who know Latin, and want to refe to the literary sources on the monuments (or sites of vanished monuments) at which they are standing. The aim is laudable, and at one level the result is wholly successful: over 600 pages in a truly pocket-sized book only 2 cm thick, with good plans, pages for notes (.). But there are three drawbacks. (a) For all too credible financial reasons, no Greek sources could be included (.). (b) The topographical material is out of date (.).
