Editorial Reviews

Review

...this supplement will allow teachers to present additional passages seamlessly into the curriculum. Sharon Kazmierski

No teacher of Vergil should be without this book.T. Keith Dix, University of Georgia

...this supplement will allow teachers to present additional passages seamlessly into the curriculum.' -- Sharon Kazmierski

'No teacher of Vergil should be without this book.' -- T. Keith Dix, University of Georgia

Barbara Weiden Boyd's textbook of the new lines is welcome...The notes are well done and helpful without doing the student's work for them...The work as a whole is extremely well done and should be widely used.

...For all AP* programs which have been using a text of books 1-6...this is unquestionably the ancillary text to use for the revised syllabus. Its excellence guarantees that it will not be so only in default of other options. -- John Higgins, The Gilbert School

The notes are more than scholarly: they are practical. More than once Boyd tells the reader in what word order to 'take' a clause or phrase. This kind of information is often a salvation for students -- and for teachers, too. The author has explained so very many things to the reader, and the notes are a virtual source of knowledge in and of themselves.

Anybody can pull lines out of a work, but not everyone can bring the lines alive and make the text work the way Boyd has with the notes....This book was a joy to review. --Gaylan DuBose, Fulmore Middle School and Guardian Angel Academy

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for AP Latin, May 28, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Vergil's Aeneid, 10 & 12: Pallas & Turnus (Latin Edition) (Bks. 10) (Bks. 10 & 12) (Paperback)
This small paperback is intended to be a supplement to Pharr's textbook covering books 1-6 of the Aeneid.It includes those passages from Books 10 and 12 that are now included on the Advanced Placement Exam for High school seniors. Pallas' death, Hercules' appeal to Zeus to spare Pallas' life and the Final battle between Aeneas and Turnus are included. The pages are set up like Pharr's Aeneid with rarely seen vocabulary on the same page as the text. All of these words are also in a dictionary in the back. Readers who do not know basic vocabulary well with need to use this book with Pharr's book or a good dictionary. This is a must have for anyone teaching the new Advanced Placement syllabus. Figures of speech are included in the book as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars more vocab, April 22, 2005
This review is from: Vergil's Aeneid, 10 & 12: Pallas & Turnus (Latin Edition) (Bks. 10) (Bks. 10 & 12) (Paperback)
Boyd produces a good product, I just wish she would have taken a few more pages and included the vocab which she omits. When students have to refer to 3 different vocabulary lists (Pharr 13 - 24, Pharr 25 and over, and her glossary) it makes translating a much more tedious process.
