Historia y tradición en la enseñanza y aprendizaje de lenguas extranjeras en Europa (II): Antigüedad clásica - Grecia.

Abstract

The Classical languages consist of a broad linguistic group which includes the different Greek dialects, Latin and the Italic languages. However, as for the teaching/learning of foreign languages in the Classical period, in which Hellenistic education was predominant, only two of them, Greek and Latin, can be deemed worthy of study. More specifically, Ancient Greek in Greece and Common Greek and Latin in Rome, during the Latin Hellenism period, are aims of our concern.

The former of these two features is the basis of the current study bearing in mind the learning of Ancient Greek in Hellenistic education.
