In the early chapters of Book II the tail readings continue the saga of the Per- sian Wars. The Classical Greek readings continue with a variety of au- thors, including Theognis, Tyrtaeus, Solon, Hesiod, and Xenophanes; the New Testament readings in Book II are drawn from the Gospel of John. When Dicaeopolis and Philip return to Athens, the Peloponnesian War breaks out, and some of the chapter and tail readings are adapted from Thucydides’ account of this war between Sparta and Athens. While in Athens, Philip attends school, and the teacher gives him the historian Herodotus to read, and the stories in the middle part of Book II are taken from some of the most memorable episodes of Herodotus’s history, dealing with the Athenian Solon’s visit to Croesus, King of Lydia, and the latter's ill-fated at- tempt to conquer the empire of Persia, ruled by Cyrus. This section ends with extracts from a beautiful poem by Bacchylides about Apollo’s rescue of Croe- sus, The opening lines of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey are given toward the end of this section, and the last two chapters contain extracts from Thucy- dides on two crucial naval battles in the Peloponnesian War and extracts from Aristophanes’ Acharnians, in which you will see Dicaeopolis making his own peace with the Spartans. The Greek Wisdom strand continues in Book II with sayings from the early Greek philosopher Heraclitus and ends in Chapter 29 with material on Socrates. You may find some links here with the sayings of the seven wise men of Archaic Greece included in Book I, A rich variety of reading awaits you in Book II. Part I: Greek Verbs The material here will expand on the Preview of New Verb Forms in Book I, pages 154-155. It will provide additional information that will help you find your way around the charts on the following pages and give you a firm structure within which you can situate the new tenses and moods that you will study in the second half of this course. You are not expected to learn all of the forms in the charts on pages x-xiv and xvi-xvii right away. You should begin by locating the forms that were formally presented in Book I, These include all of the forms except those of the subjunctive and optative on the first four charts (pages x-xiii). In Chapter 16 you learned that middle and passive forms are identical in the present and imperfect tenses and that they are different in the future and aorist. Thus onviii Athenaze: Book I the second chart you will find the middle/passive forms of Xo in the present and imperfect tenses, but on the fourth chart you will find only the middle voice forms of Ma in the future and aorist. ‘The fifth chart (page xiv) shows the passive forms of Xa in the future and aorist, and you will learn these forms in Chapter 17. ‘The new material on verb forms in Book II is organized as follows: 1. The aorist and future passive in Chapter 17 2, A group of verbs that end in - in the Ist perscn eingular, present in- dicative in Chapters 18, 19, and 20 (you have already learned two such verbs, eipi and ely) 8. ‘The subjunctive mood (Chapter 21) 4. The optative mood (Chapter 25) 5. The perfect and pluperfect tenses (Chapters 27 and 28) You already know from the verb charts that you filled out during your study of Greek in Book I where the subjunctive and optative forms fit into the charts, and you will find the forms of the subjunctive and optative on the charts on the following pages. The forms of the perfect and pluperfect tenses are organized on the last two charts (pages xvi-xvii). You should be pleased that you al- ready know about half of the forms on these seven charts! Part I: Moods, Verbal Nouns, and Verbal Adjectives Greek verbs have four moods, indicative, imperative, subjunctive, and optative, which express the manner in which the action of the verb is con- ceived by the speaker or writer. In the readings you have seen many verbs in the indicative mood, the mood used to express statements and questions about reality or fact. You have also seen many verbs in the imperative mood, the mood used to express commands. So far you have seen only 2nd person im- peratives, e.g., “Xanthias, lift the stone!” or “Oxen, drag the plow!” Greek also has 3rd person imperative forms, not addressed directly to the person who is to do the action but to someone else, c.g., “Let Xanthias do it!” “Let the oxen drag the plow!” You will find examples of these in the reading in Chap- ter 30, but they are not included on the charts. In addition to verbs in the indicative or imperative mood, you have seen infinitives, which are verbal nouns and are not limited (-fin- is from the Latin word finis that means “end” or “limit”) by person or number and that fit into a sentence pattern such as “I am not able fo work.” You have also seen many participles, which are verbal adjectives that fit into sentence patterns such as the following: “The man working in the field lifted the stone.” In Book IT you will learn two new moods, the subjunctive and the optative. In main clauses these do not express simple statements or questions about re- ality or fact but instead fit into sentence patterns such as “What are we to do?” or “I wish I had my sight restored!” They are also used in various types of subordinate clauses. Subordinate clauses that require these moods will gen-Introduction ix erally use the subjunctive if the verb of the main clause is in a primary tense (present, future, or perfect) and the optative if the verb of the main clause is in a secondary tense (imperfect, aorist, or pluperfect). Occasionally you will meet subjunctive and optative forms in the stories before they are formally introduced in the grammar. These forms are very easy to recognize. Most verbs in the subjunctive have the long vowels @ or n before the ending (find examples in the charts on the following pages). The optative has the suffix -1- or -n-, which combines with other vowels in the verb to give forms that are immediately recognizable by the diphthongs o1, a1, or g or the long-vowel digraph ex (again, find examples in the charts on the following pages). Help with translation of subjunctive and optative forms in the stories before these moods are formally introduced will be given in the glosses below the paragraphs of the stories Part IV: Principal Parts Once you learn the rules for the formation of the various verb forms, you will be able to recognize or make up any and all of the forms on the charts yourself if you know six basic forms of any given verb. These six forms are called the principal parts, and they are as follows: present active future active aorist active dio Mow Bioa perfect active perfect middle/passive aorist passive Méhuco, éAvpeer é208nv ‘The other forms are constructed as follows: The imperfect is constructed from the present stem: é-Av-o-v. The present, future, and aorist middle are constructed from the corre- sponding active stems: At-o-o, A60-o-yon, &-Adod-unV. The future passive is constructed from the aorist passive stem: 4v04-0-o- fon.

Many verbs, howcver, follow more complex linguistic pat- terns, so that their principal parts cannot all be predicted on the basis of easy rules. In some verbs the stem appears in differont forms in the different tenses; for example, in the forms of the verb Mw given above you can see two slightly different stems, .0- and lv-, A knowledge of stems is useful, as you already know from Book I. A few common verbs use etymologically unre- lated stems to supply missing forms. For example, the verb aipéw does not have an aorist related to the stem aipc- but instead uses the unrelated stem #A- to supply the missing aorist. The other principal parts of this verb are regular (except for ¢ instead of the expected n in the aorist passive): aipfo ——aiphow elhov Honxa, Honpcn fpéay For convenience grammarians say that the stems of this verb are aipe- and #h-. Note that verbs such as this that begin with a vowel or diphthong have a temporal augment instead of reduplication in the perfect tense. Verbs that be- gin with certain consonants or consonant clusters will have syllabic aug- ment instead of reduplication, c.g., onevSu, perfect, tonevxa. In Book I from Chapter 10 on we gave the present, future, and aorist of most verbs in vocabulary lists, and we included the aorist participle to show the unaugmented aorist stem. In Book II we will give in the chapter vocabu- lary lists full sets of principal parts for mast verbs. We will not give the prin- cipal parts of regular contract verbs that follow the patterns of the model con- tract verbs gilda, tudo, and 5n2éq; for the principal parts of these model verbs, see the Greek to English Vocabulary at the end of this book. We also do not usually give the principal parts of compound verbs, for which the princi- pal parts of the simple verb have already been given; consult the Greek to En- glish Vocabulary aa necessary. We stop giving aorist participles, but we will occasionally include other forms, such as the imperfect, when they deserve special attention. After the reading passages we will give full sets of principal parts of im- portant verbs, most of which you met in Book I, These sets are arranged ac- cording to certain linguistic principles to help you sce similarities among verbs and organize them into helpful groupings in your own mind. Seeing the similarities and shared patterns will make it easier for you to learn the principal parts.5 Yooq Sty} Ur aeYAos|a SyIBYD UI papnpUt jou puE ereI AIOA,, 4 Anolns ‘31ly3 ‘aally3 104, 3 a 4A3ya Sas9anyay, 5 a20g Saxqnayay 42249 Saaganyay 4 stan Saag ayay < Sorpxaysy ‘u93 ly3 Saaysy, Spa patie, 19 SQNDYDY Sys Se@xaysy ‘Sxayay rmagaaysy, Ala S@Xayay adpyeg oaruyuy «24 QRI0d Uy aaredQ B0T0A BATPY 3) LOMAaad Id GNV LOoddadad (ahog S2a9x0yay aay Saaganyay, aaig S329 40y37, Usqraysy Sh Sqaaysy g Sqxayay, aanouniqng anoaxgy2y2 araxgyay3 aadangyay?

The Passive Voice: -8n- Ist Aorist Passive and -67- 1st Future Passive In Chapter 16 you learned that in tbe present and the imperfect tenses the middle and passive voices have identical forms. In the aorist and future tenses the passive voice has forms different from those of the mid- dle. In the reading passage above you met several aorist passive forms, easily identified by the presence of the letters 6n, e.g., 6640n ond tiv vautdv (1-2), was tied by the sailors. To form the aorist passive, most verbs add -0n-/-Qe- to the verb stem, with the 3rd person singular ending in -6n as in the example above. The indicative is augmented. The resulting forms are called -6n- Ist aorist passives to distinguish them from a slightly different formation of aorist passives called -n- 2nd aorist passives that add only -n- or -e- to the verb stem and will be presented in Grammar 2, page 13.17.

Apollo sent his sister Artemis to punish her with death, but, as she lay on the pyre and the flames flickered around her body, Apollo snatched from her womb the unborn baby, his son. He gave him to the wise old centaur Cheiron to bring up and told him to teach the child to heal men of their sicknesses. ‘And all who came to him suffering from sores caused by nature, or whose limbs were wounded by gray bronze or the far-flung stone, or whose bodies were wasting from summer’s heat or winter’s cold, he freed from their various pains and cured. Some he treated with soft incantations, some with soothing medicines, on the limbs of others he put healing ointments, and yet others he made straight with the surgeon’s knife. (Pindar, Pythian 3.47-58). In the end Asclepius attempted to restore the dead to life, and Zeus in anger struck him down with a thunderbolt. In time the status of the mortal hero rose to reach that of a god, and shrines were dedicated to him throughout Greece as the preserver of health and healer of sickness, a god who loved mankind, their savior. Of all the sanctuaries of Asclepius, the greatest was at Epidaurus. Here, in an undulating valley, sur- rounded by mountains, was a site that had been holy from times immemorial, sacred first to a local hero, then to Apollo, and finally to Apollo and Asclepius. The cult of Asclepius seems to have arrived there early in the fifth century, and by the end of the century the sanctuary was visited by pilgrims from all over the Greek world. Pilgrims arriving at the port and city of Epidaurus had a walk of five miles or eight kilometers to reach the sanctuary, through a deep ravine, cut by a stream, where wild olive and plane trees and laurel abounded. They ar- rived at last at a splendid entrance building resembling a temple, on the gates of which they saw this inscription: ayvdv xpi Vaio OvdBe0g evtdg iévea Eupeven- dyveid 3° kori gpoveiy Sou. He must be pure who enters the fragrant shrine; purity is thinking holy thoughts. Most of the buildings of which the remains can be seen today were built in the fourth century when the cult of Asclepius was at its height, but there would have been humbler versions of the most important buildings there when Philip visited the sanctuary. In the center stood the temple of Asclepius him- self and close to it the &Botov, a long, narrow building in which patients seek- ing a cure had to sleep the night; opposite this was the @éAos, a round building that was probably the home of the sacred serpents. To the west of the main17. H_EMIAAYPOE @ 9 sanctuary lay the stadium, to the southeast the xotayéyiov, a large square building, where the pilgrims stayed, and beyond this on the hillside the great theater, for which Epidaurus is now most famous. Procession, choral dance, and sacrifice took place throughout the year, and every four years there was a great festival with athletic, dramatic, and musical competitions The procedure for consulting Asclepius was simple: patients first had to purify themselves by ritual washing and to make an offering (often a honey- cake), When night came they were conducted to the éatov and waited for the god to appear while they slept. ‘The walls of the temple were covered with tablets set up by grateful patients; the cure we ascribe to Philip is taken from one of these. Here is the record of another cure of blindness, set up by a patient who had been a sceptic: Ambrosia of Athens, blind in one eye, She came as a suppliant to the god, but walking around the sanctuary, she scoffed at some of the cures as in- credible and impossible, that the lame and blind should be made whole, merely by seeing a vision in their sleep. But she, in her sleep, saw a vi- sion. It seemed to her that the god stood over her and announced that he would cure her but that, in payment, he would ask her to present to the sanctuary a pig made of silver as a reminder of her ignorance. After saying this, he cut open her diseased eye and poured in some drug. When day dawned, she went out cured. (Stele 1.33-41). Many were sceptical of the whole business, like Cicero, who said: “Few patients owe their lives to Asclepius rather than Hippocrates.” The reputation of the sanctuary, however, continued to attract pilgrims for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to believe that all the cures recorded by grateful patients were mere fictions. ‘Tho inscription reads: AEKAH ‘To Ascle- na pius KAl and YPEIA Health TYXH ‘Tyche (dedicates this) EYXAPIS, (as a) thank THPION offering Votive tablet dedicated for the cure of a leg10 Athenaze: Book IT H EMIAAYPOE (8) VOCABULARY Verbs Henceforth we give principal parts of contract verbs only when they show irregularities. axéopat, axodpat, heeoduny (note einstead of n), I heal tnitpéna, émitpéyu, énétpe- ya, [spon-] émizétpoga, [tpan-] énitétpappar, éme~ tpénnv, I entrust X (acc.) to Y (dat.)

Sparta and Corinth In the chaos following the breakdown of Bronze Age civilization in the Eastern Mediterranean (ca. 1200 B.C.), there were widespread migrations. New peoples entered Greece and Asia Minor from north of the civilized world and either pushed out or merged with the previous population. In Greece the newcomers were Greeks who spoke a different dialect, Doric, and this move- ment is traditionally called the Dorian invasion, although it probably took the form of sporadic raids over a long period of time rather than an organized invasion, When the dust settled, the whole of the Peloponnesus except the cen- tral plateau of Arcadia was occupied by Doric speakers. Dorians calling themselves Lacedacmonians were settled in the fertile valley of the Eurotas by 1,000 B.C. and by about 850 B.C. four or five villages united to form the polis of Sparta. As its population increased, Sparta gradu- ally conquered her neighbors to the north and east, reducing them to depen- dent status; the conquered were called nepioixo.. They had local autonomy but were obliged to serve in the Spartan army. About 735 B.C., when other states were about to solve their population problem by sending out colonies, Sparta crossed the mountain range of Taygetus and in a war lasting twenty years conquered Messenia. The inhabitants were reduced to the status of serfs, called helots (cihateg), who worked the land for their Spartan masters. ‘This conquest determined the future history of Sparta. Up to this time her development had been not unlike that of other Greek states, except that she had retained a monarchy, or rather a dyarchy, since she had two hereditary kings coming from two separate royal families. Within fifty years of the conquest of Messenia she had developed into a totalitarian military state quite different from any other in Greece. The reason for this was the absolute necessity of dominating the helots, who outnumbered the Spartans by seven to one and revolted whenever the opportunity occurred. Sometime in the seventh century there was a revolution in Sparta caused partly by economic factors (the new wealth produced by the conquest of Messe- nia) and partly by military reorganization (the introduction of the hoplite phalanx). Both developments gave more importance to the ordinary Spartan and challenged the authority of kings and nobles. The outcome was a revised constitution, ascribed to a lawgiver called Lycurgus. The kings were ad- vised by a council of elders, all aged over sixty, the Gerousia. The ancient assembly of all the Spartans, the Apella, was given the final authority, i.e., the right to accept or reject proposals put by the Gerousia. In addition there were five officials called ephors (Egopo., overseers), elected by the whole citi-ee 5 zen body, whose function was to guard the rights of the people in its relation with the kings. The other feature of the Lycurgan reforms was the éywy} (iraining); this was the system by which every male Spartan was trained to devote his life to service in the army. At birth the child was inspected by the heads of his tribe, and, if the child was weak or unhealthy, it was exposed on Mount Taygetus and left to die. At seven the boy began his education in the state school, where the whole training was aimed at discipline, endurance, and patriotism. At twenty he joined the army and might marry but continued to live in barracks. At thirty he became a man and joined the ranks of the dyo101 (equals) but continued to dine in the public mess with his fellow soldiers. In 660 B.C. Sparta, still trying to extend her territory northward, suffered a severe defeat at the hands of her northern neighbor, Argos, Soon after this the helots rose in revolt, no doubt supported by Argos. There followed a long and bitter war, from which Sparta eventually emerged victorious, By the end of the century Argive power had declined. Sparta became the dominant power in the Peloponnesus and enrolled all the states except Argos in a loose confed- eracy called the Peloponnesian League. ‘The other Greeks either admired Sparta for her stability (ebvoyid) or hated her for her oppressive and xenophobic regime. Nevertheless, Sparta was rec- ognized as the most powerful state in Greece. The polie of Corinth was formed from a union of seven villages perhaps about 800 B.C., and, when she emerges into the light of history, we find her ruled by a Dorian clan, the Bacchiadae. Her position on the Isthmus, at the very center of Greece with ports on both seas, assured her future as a commer- cial city. Under the Bacchiadae she founded the earliest colonies in the West (except for Ischia) at Corcyra and Syracuse (734 B.C.); she led the way in im- provements in the design of ships and in the manufacture of pottery. The dis- tinetive Corinthian ware was exported all over the Greek world and beyond in the eighth and seventh centuries. About 650 B.C. the Bacchiadae were overthrown and driven out by Cypselus. He was the first of many Greek tyrants, a word which did not have its present connotations but simply meant one who seized power unconstitu- tionally. The tyrants often won power as champions of the people against the oppression of the nobles and were the product of economic and military devel- opments similar to those that occasioned the revolution at Sparta. Under Cypselus and his son Periander, Corinth flourished and became the leading maritime and commercial state. His regime became bloody and oppressive, as conspiracies drove him to suspect all citizens of wealth and influence. He died in 585 B.C., and his successor was assassinated within a few years From then on Corinth was ruled by an oligarchy (which means rule by the few: in Corinth’s case, the wealthy merchants). | _ Corinth remained one of the most prosperous States of Greece, achieving by the fifth century a near monopoly of western trade. When Athens began to rival Corinth in the West, Corinth had every reason to fear her ambitions.Athenaze: Book II O AZKAHTIIOS (Bp) VOCABULARY Verbs dpaptéve, [appre] &pap- thaonan, [auapt-] Hpaprtov, [apapte-] AndptyKa, hydp- tHuar, huopthOnv + gen., I miss; I make a mistake, am mistaken évartiOnur, I set up; I dedicate Emotpareto + dat. or éxi + acc., I march against, attack xpatéa + gen., I rule, have power over, control; I prevail napad{Sapr, I hand over; I give cpéxo, [Spape-] Spapodpa, [Spap-] ESpapov, [Spape-] de- Spdpnxa, I run npootpéyo, I run toward todpde, I dare Nouns 4 wun, tig yvaung, opinion; judgment; intention & &x8pdc, tod éx8p0d, enemy fh Ovala, tic Qvotag, sacrifice 1d xpdtos, t08 Kpdtouc, power 2b mp&ypa, 10d mphyparos, matter; trouble +k yphpata, tav yonnétov, things; goods; money Adjectives by Opéc, -&, -6v, hateful; hostile tov 88 Aikarénodw nbpov xpd tod Katayayiov Kabjpevov. bytis, -é&, healthy @tdaitepos, -&, -ov and gt- Rattatog or gLAtatOS, -n, -ov, irregular comparative and superlatives of ios, -1, -ov, dearer; dearest Prepositions Sid + gen., through; + ace. be- cause of ént + dat., at; of price, for; + acc., at; against; onto; upon Adverbs Hdéac, sweetly; pleasantly; gladly N&MAov, more; rather n@Aov i, rather than otxovv, certainly not nédan, long ago naar eiat(v), they have been for a long time now Conjunction 61611, because Particle wéveot, certainly; however Expressions 8p0ds yyvdoxKe, I am right nig dyer te npdypata; How are things? riva yvabpnv exec; What do you think? 6 be og el8e tov naiSa BePatos BodiCovra Kai Prénover, avéom Koi npoodpapdv hondere adtov Kai, “d gidtate nai,” ANOS, dp ce dy Svta; SqBarpodg d Zon, “apa Gpa GdnOds hxécatd sor todo Ged¢; Bet mheiomy xapw 16 ‘Ackhnmé dnododvat.” Kai npds tov iepée tpeycpevoc, “dp EEeott Ovoiay noreicBar; dp’ 818.

The Genitive Absolute Examine the following sentence: OdAnovroc tod HAfov, dnd LAG EKsAIVTO. Since the sun was hot, they were sitting under an olive tree. The words in boldface consist of a participle and a noun in the genitive case. This phrase has no grammatical relationship to the rest of the sen- tence, i.e., the participle does not modify any element such as the subject, the direct object, or the indirect object of the main clause. This use of a participle with a noun or pronoun in the genitive case is called a genitive absolute. The term absolute comes from a Latin word meaning “separated” or “independent,” and genitive absolutes are grammatically separate from the rest of the sentence in which they occur. Here are other examples: oddevadg Bvt0s Apiv dpyuptov, odx KEcotw Apiv Karé OéAortav otkade vooteiv. There being no money for us or Since we have no money, it is not pos- sible for us to return home by sea. Anépag yevonévns, & nuxhp viv nada Kodsoag tepye do Cyrhoovee th wpoPaca. When day came or When day had come or At daybreak, the father, calling his son, sent him to seek the sheep. In this sentence, the phrase juépac yevouévns is absolute, i.e., not part of the atructure of the rest of the sentence, whereas the participle xaAéodg agrees with narip, the subject in the main clause, and the participle (qtiaovta. agrees with naiiSe, the direct object in the main clause. With regard to aspect, present participles describe progressive, ongo- ing action contemporancous with the action of the main verb in the sen- tence (see Book I, Chapter 8, Grammar 1, page 115). Thus, in the sentence above, OéAnovtos rod HAtov, dnd Ed&c Excinvto, a present participle is used in the genitive absolute, but it is translated into English as a past progressive, Since the sun was hot, indicating ongoing action contempo- raneous With the imperfect tense of the main verb, éKé@nvto, they were sit- ting. Compare the sentence od8evdg 8vtos hiv dpyvptov, odk KEcottv ‘juiv xat& OdAattay oixade vooteiv, and its English translation, Since we have no money, it is not possible for us to return home by sea. With regard to aspect, the aorist participle in a genitive absolute ex- presses simple action (see Book 1, Chapter 11, Grammar 3d, pages 179- 180). Thus, the genitive absolute with its participle in the aorist in the sentence jpépdg yevonévns, 0 mathp tov maida Kadéoas Emewyev > {ntioovta t& xpdfara may be translated simply When day came or even more simply, At daybreak. However, aorist participles in genitive abso-19. 0 NOZTOE () 39 lutes may often be translated into English so as to indicate time before the action of the main verb, e.g, When day had come, the father, calling his son, sent him to seek the sheep. Genitive absolutes can often best be translated into English with clauses beginning with “since,” “as,” “when,” or “although.” The choice of which introductory word to use will usually be clear from the meaning of the sentence as a whole, but sometimes a word such as xainep, although, will provide a helpful clue.

Formation of the Active: Present: i-otn-11 Sigmatic 1st aorist: ¢-ot-co. Imperfect: t-ot-v Athematic 2nd aorist: é-ot-v Future: otj-o-o The present and imperfect are formed by putting {- (reduplication: = at-, cf. Latin sist6) before the stem and adding the personal endings, e.g.,40 Athenaze: Book II ‘om-pt. In the imperfect the {- augments to i-. In both the present and the imperfect, the long-vowel stem (ot-) is used in the singular, and in the plural, the short (ota-). Compare 8{-80-u1 and ti-On-pt. The future oti\-cw is formed regularly, as is the sigmatic 1st aorist - omm-oa. Meaning of the Active: Forms in the active voice in the present, imperfect, future, and sig- matic Ist aorist are ¢ransitive and take direct objects. They mean make to stand, stop, or set up, e.g. dnoig dv Kova tomow. ‘The boy is stopping his dog. 6 nolig tov Kiva torn. The boy was stopping his dog. b naig tov Kiva omice. ‘The boy will stop his dog. 6 noig tov Kiva Zomoev. The boy stopped his dog. d vaime tbv iatdv Eomoev. The sailor set up the mast. The athematic 2nd aorist, Zomy, means I stood, stood still, stopped, and the perfect, éomra, means I stand. These forms are intransitive and do not take direct objects, e.g.: 8 bay Eom. The dog stood still / stopped. fy yovit mpdg tii xptivn Eomnxev. The woman stands near the spring. Formation of the Middle: Present: {-ota-pat Imperfect: § Sigmatic 1st aorist: é-om-oé-unv Athematic 2nd aorist: none Meaning of the Middle: The present, imperfect, future, and sigmatic Ist aorist middle may be used transitively, e.g.: pthaxag ioréuebo., We are setting up, i.e., posting, guards. goAaxKac iorépeBa. We were setting up, i.e., posting, guards. gohaKas omodneba. We will set up, i.e., post, guards. gohaxag LomodpeBe. We set up, i.e., posted, guards. The middle voice implies that the action is performed in the interests of the subject, ie., here, for ourselves /for our protection. The present, imperfect, and future middle may also be used intransi- tively, e.g.: iordueba. We are standing/standing still/ stopping. iorépea. We were standing/ standing still /stopping. omodpeda. We will stand/stand still/ stop.19° 0 NOZTOE (a) 41 N.B.: The sigmatic 1st aorist middle is not used intransitively; the athematic 2nd aorist active is used instead, e.g.: éotnpev We stood/stood still /stopped. Passive forms are translated exactly as you would expect, e.g., the aorist passive éocdé®ny means I was set (up). The forms of fotny1 will be presented in the second half of this chapter.

The lion gate to the citadel is shown here. Mycenae Mycenae stands on a hill skirted by two deep ravines. ‘The site is a natu- ral strong point, dominating the plain of Argos. It was first occupied about 3,000 B.C., and a new settlement was made about 2,000 B.C., which is gener- ally believed to be the time when Greek speakers arrived in Greece. There is clear evidence for a sudden increase in the importance and prosperity of this settlement about 1,600 B.C.; two grave circles have been found, one inside the later walls and containing six shaft graves, excavated by Schliemann in the 1870s, the other rather earlier in date, outside the walls, discovered in 1950. These graves contained a mass of gold and other precious objects of great beauty, including imports from Minoan Crete and Egypt. ‘The power and wealth of Mycenae increased rapidly. There was soon a uniform culture in mainland Greece, stretching from Thessaly in the north to the south of the Peloponnesus, with palaces at Thebes, Athens, Mycenae, Tiryns, and Pylos and probably at other sites not yet discovered. Although the palaces were the administrative centers of separate kingdoms, it seems likely that Mycenae was the leading, if not the dominant, kingdom. From 1500 B.C. the kings of Mycenae were buried in massive stone tombs outside the walls, of which the largest, the so-called Treasury of Atreus, is a magnifi- cent architectural achievement. ‘About 1450 B.C. the Achaeans, as the Grecks of the Mycenaean period were called, invaded Crete and destroyed all the Minoan palaces except Knossos, which they occupied. Succeeding to Minoan control of the seas, the Achaeans19. 0 NOZTOE (@) 43 now traded widely throughout the Eastern Mediterranean and made settle- ments on the islands and in Asia Minor, The zenith of Mycenaean power and prosperity was in the early thirteenth century; in this period were built the walls, some of which still stand, and the lion gate. By about 1250 B.C., when the defenses were renewed and improved, there is evidence of destruction outside the walls. Trade declined; a period of upheaval and deterioration had begun. The Trojan War is thought to have occurred about this time. The traditional date for the fall of Troy is 1184 B.C., but the American archaeologist Blegen, who made the most complete recent excavations and found clear evidence of a prolonged siege, dates the destruction of Troy to about 1240 B.C. It looks as though the Trojan expedition was the last united effort of the Achaeans Mycenae was subjected to three successive attacks in the following years. In the first, the houses outside the walls were destroyed; in the second, the cit- ade) was sacked; in the third, it was finally destroyed and not reoccupied. The other mainland palaces were all sacked around 1200 B.C., presumably by bands of invading Dorians. ‘The entrance to the Treasury of Atreus44 Athenaze: Book IT During the Dark Ages a new settlement was made on the site of Mycenae, which developed into a miniature polis; this sent a small contingent to fight at Plataea, but in 468 B.C. it was attacked and destroyed by Argos. When Philip visited it in our story, the site was abandoned; the massive walls and the lion gate still stood, but the rest was overgrown and undisturbed until Schliemann arrived in 1876. Around Mycenae centered one of the most important cycles of Greek myth. The royal house of Mycenae was doomed. Its founder had been Pelops. His father Tantalus wanted to find out whether the gods were really omni- scient. He killed his own child Pelops and served him up to the gods at a feast; none of the gods would touch the meat except for Demeter, who was dis- tracted by grief and ate part of his shoulder. The gods restored him to life and replaced his missing shoulder with one of ivory. When he had grown up, he wooed Hippodamia, daughter of Oenomaus. In order to win her hand, he had to beat her father in a chariot race. He bribed Qenomaus’s charioteer to re- move the linchpin of the axle. In the race, Oenomaus was thrown and killed, but as he lay dying he cursed Pelops. Pelops carried off the dead king’s daughter to Mycenae and founded a dy- nasty that was unremittingly haunted by the curse, His sons were Atreus and Thyestes. Thyestes seduced Atreus’ wife, and Atreus banished him. Atrous then pretended to be reconciled and invited his brother to a banquet; at this feast he served up Thyestes’ own children. Thyestes found a human finger in his portion and, realizing what Atreus had done, kicked over the table and fled, cursing Atreus and all his family. Thyestes had a son, Aegisthus, by his own daughter; together they murdered Atreus. Agamemnon succeeded Atreus as king, and when he led the Greeks to Troy, he left the kingdom in the care of his wife, Clytemnestra. The Greek fleet, however, en route for Troy was held up by unceasing contrary winds. The prophet said that these winds would only cease if Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter to Artemis. Agamemnon sent for his daughter Iphigenia on the pretext that she was to wed Achilles, and with his own hand he cut her throat over the altar. During Agamemnon’s absence, Clytemnestra took Aegisthus as her lover and planned vengeance. When, after ten years, Agamemnon returned, the lovers murdered him, entrapping him in a net while he was in the bath. Orestes, the young son of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, escaped into exile, saved by his nurse; the daughters, Chrysothemis and Electra, remained in the palace. When Orestes grew to manhood, he consulted Apollo's oracle at Delphi and was ordered to avenge his father's murder. He returned to Mycenae secretly and with Electra’s help murdered both ‘Acgisthus and his own mother. He was then pursued by the Furies and took refuge at Apollo’s altar. The curse, which had haunted the family through four generations, was finally laid to rest when Athena acquitted Orestes of bloodguilt on the grounds that he had been ordered by Apollo to perform the murders.19.

When the allies rejected the general whom the Spartans sent to command the fleet in 478 B.C. and formed the Delian League under Athenian leadership, Sparta did not demur. However, she watched the succosses of the League and the growth of Athenian power with increasing anxiety. In 464 B.C, there was an earthquake at Sparta, and in the ensuing chaos the helots revolted. The Spartans asked their allies, including Athens, to send help, and the Assembly was persuaded by Cimon to send a force under his com- mand, When this force failed to take the helot stronghold, the Spartans dis- missed them. This rebuff resulted in a volte-face in Athenian policy. As soon as Cimon returned (461 B.C.), an ostracism was held, and Cimon was sent into exile for ten years. Pericles emerged as the dominant statesman, a position he held until his death in 429 B.C. Under his leadership, Athens broke with Sparta,20. 0 NOETOE ( 61 made an alliance with Argos, and soon became involved in a sporadic war with Sparta and hor allies, which lasted intermittently for fifteon years On the whole, Athens was successfull, and at one time her empire extended to include Boeotia and Megara, but she was overextended. In 446 B.C. when Euboea and Megara revolted and a Lacedaemonian army advanced to the borders of Attica, she was glad to make peace. The Thirty Years’ Peace stipu- lated that each side should respect the other's sphere of influence and not ad- mit into her alliance an ally of the other. ‘There followed a period of peace and retrenchment, during which Peri- cles eschewed imperialistic adventures, observed the terms of the peace, and built up Athenian resources. Sparta and her allies, however, especially Corinth, continued to distrust Athens and to fear her ambitions. The Aegean and Black Sea were already Athenian preserves; when she began to extend her influence in the west, Corinthian fears increased. In 433/432 B.C. the Corinthian colony of Corcyra (Corfu) was embroiled in a quarrel with her mother city and asked Athens for help. Athens agreed to make a defensive alliance, and when Corinth attacked Corcyra an Athenian squadron, which had been sent to “observe,” joined in the battle and routed the Corinthian fleet. Shortly after this, Potidaea, which was both a colony of Corinth and a member of the Athenian Empire, revolted from Athens and asked Corinth for help. The Corinthians sent “volunteers,” and Athens laid siege to the city. In late summer 432 B.C., representatives of the Peloponnesian League voted that Athens had broken the terms of the peace and that war should be de- clared. Both sides tried to make the other appear the aggressor. Finally, the Spartans sent an ultimatum: “The Lacedaemonians desire peace, and there will be peace, if you let the Greeks be independent.” Pericles advised the Athenians to reject this ultimatum and to call on the Spartans to submit their differences to arbitration under the terms of the peace. By now the Pelopon- nesian army was mustered, and in early summer 431 B.C. it invaded Attica.

Verbs That Take Supplementary Participles: KavOdvo, toyyavo, 98dva, and gaivopat The verb AavOdva, Mow, EhaBov, AéknOa, meaning I escape notice, es- cape the notice of, is used idiomatically with a supplementary participle. The participle contains the main idea of the sentence and is usually translated with a finite verb, while the form of AavOéva becomes an ad- verbial phrase. Note these examples from the last paragraph of the read- ing passage above: HAaBov Ev téqpy twi Kpvydpevor. They hid themselves in a ditch without anvone’s noticing (that they were doing s0). névraig avOpdnovg EAaBov taxémc tepevor. They quickly hurried, unobserved by everyone. Note that in the second example ZAa@ov takes a direct object, névras, évOpdrnovs, lit., they escaped notice of all men. Here are two more examples: Babov ciceNéveec. They entered without being seen. Brabev tervrdv todx0 nowotic. He did this unawares. Some other Greek verbs may also be used with supplementary participles: a, Twyxdvo, tesEopan, Ervyov, terignxa, I happen to (of a coincidence) Exoyov napévtes oi mpéofiers.

Many were saying that the Athenians were acting wrongly (use pre- sent tense of dBtxéw) and (that) it was necessary (use present tense) to wage war immediately. 3. But Archidamus, being king, advised them not to get into war. 4. “For,” he said, “they have (use dative of the possessor) very much money and very many ships. We are not able to defeat them by sea. And so we will suffer terribly (use xaxé and x&ozo) ourselves more than we will harm them.” 5. But he was not able to persuade the Spartans, who decided to wage war. New Testament Greek.

Keep the charts for reference. 3. Uses of the Subjunctive Mood a, The subjunctive (usually 1st person plural) is used in exhortations, as in example a in Grammar 1 above (page 75). This is called the horta- tory subjunctive, and its negative is ua, e.g.: avEpeias paydpeba. Let us fight bravely. uh ed6ic Yopev. Let ws not go immediately. bh to.odt0 notjoapev. Let ws not do such a thing. Note that the difference between the present and aorist subjunctive is in aspect, not in time; i.e., the present subjunctive is used when the action is viewed as a process, and the aorist is used when the action is viewed as an event. This applies to the other uses below as well. b, The present or aorist subjunctive (usually Ist person) may be used in deliberative questions, as in example c in Grammar 1 above (page 75) and in the following: xi xotdpev; ndtepov pévepev # olkade Exaviowev; What are we to do? Are we to stay or return home? Remember that the double question is introduced by nétepov, whether, which is not translated. c. The aorist subjunctive (2nd person singular or plural) is used with uh in prohibitions or negative commands, e.g.: wh tobt0 nowhons. Do not do this. d. The subjunctive is used in subordinate clauses introduced by ‘va, Snug, or &s to express purpose, as in example b in Grammar 1 above (page 75). A negative purpose clause is introduced by iva wi, dnas wi, ¢ wh, or simply py. The following are further examples: Gvbpelac woxsneda Ya thy narpida cdoopev. We are fighting bravely so that we may save our fatherland (= to save our fatherland). onesdovow Snag pi dyt &pixoven. They are hurrying 80 that they may not arrive late (= lest they ar- rive late = 80 as not to arrive late). Note that several different translations are possible in English, Note also, however, that Attic Greek prose does not use a simple infinitive to express purpose as we most commonly do in English.21. H EKKAHEIA (a) 99 e. The subjunctive is used in some types of conditional clauses, e.g.: eipiivn 8 Eotar, éév tolls “EXAnvas adtovénoug defite. There will be peace, if you let the Greeks go free. Note the use of éév (= ei + div). Exercise 218 Change the following to the subjunctive; 1. Adopev 8. eldovto, 16. nbEato 2.

(see essay, Book I, Chapter 8, page 118), had broken the old aristocratic (eupatrid) monopoly of power by making wealth, not birth, the criterion for political privilege. He also gave the As- sembly a more important role in decision making; it elected the nine magis- trates (archons) from the top two property classes and was supported by a new Council of 400, which prepared business for debate in the Assembly and which also formed a counterweight to the old Council of the Areopagus, which before Solon’s reforms had been the governing body of Athens. The most democratic feature of Solon’s constitution was the Heliaea; this was the Assembly sitting as a court of appeals from the decisions of magistrates. Solon’s constitution continued to function throughout the following period of strife between factions of the nobility and throughout the ensuing tyranny of Pisistratus and his son Hippias. When Hippias was driven out in 510 B.C., the noble families began to compete for power once more. Herodotus (5.66) says, “Two men were preeminent, Cleisthenes the Alcmeonid and Isagoras. These were involved in a struggle for power, and Cleisthenes, being worsted, took the people into partnership.” In 508 Isagoras was driven into exile, and Cleisthenes put through a program of reforms, which established a moderate democracy. First, he probably extended the citizenship, so that every free man, land- less or not, had the right to vote. Secondly, to prevent the recurrence of dynas- tie rivalry, he instituted an elaborate system that destroyed the territorial ba- sis of the nobles’ power. He divided Attica into 139 demes (see essay, Book 1, Chapter 3, pages 28-29), each with its own assembly and demarch; he abol- ished the four old Athenian tribes (9dA0‘), based on kinship, and replaced them with ten new tribes, which were artificial political units, so constituted that the political influence of clan and locality was ended. ‘This photograph shows the Acropolis from the west with the Arcopngus (the hill of Ares, god of war) in the foreground; here the ancient, Council of the Areopagus met.21H EKKAHZIA (a) 81 The ten new tribes formed the basic administrative and military units of the state, Fach tribe (904i) provided fifty members (councilors, BoAcvtat) to the Council (Bovd#) of 500, which now replaced Solon’s Council of 400; every deme elected a fixed number of councilors in proportion to its size. The new Council had a key role; it prepared business for the Assembly in its probouleutic function and was also responsible as an executive committee of the Assembly for seeing that decisions of the people were carried out. In the military sphere, each tribe provided one brigade, which was commanded by one of the ten generals elected by the Assembly. The Assembly of all adult male citizens was sovercign, It elected the nine archons, whose functions were largely judicial, and the ten generals; it met regularly to debate issues brought before the people by the Council, and it continued to function as a court of appeals as the Heliaea. The ancient Coun- cil of the Areopagus still had important but vague powers, especially in judi- cial matters and as guardian of the constitution. To Cleisthenes, probably, should also be ascribed the institution of os- tracism. Once a year the Assembly was asked whether it wished to send one of the citizens into exile. If the people voted in favor of an ostracism, a mect- ing was held at which every citizen scratched on a fragment of pottery (Sotpaxov) the name of the politician he would like to see banished. The man against whom most ostraca were cast was sent off into honorable exile for ten years, In 487 B.C. a change was introduced by which the nine archons were se- lected by lot (from the top two property classes) instead of by election. It fol- lowed that the importance of the archons declined while that of the generals, who were still elected, increased. In 462 B.C. a statesman named Ephialtes, supported by the young Pericles, put through measures that stripped the Are- opagus of its powers and transferred them to the Assembly, Council, or popu- lar courts, which now became courts of first instance instead of courts of ap- peal. Ephialtes was assassinated soon after his reforms, and his place as leader of the people was taken by Pericles, who dominated the Assembly until his death in 429 B.C., thirty-two years later. The key principles of democracy that had long been recognized were the rule of law and the equality of all citi- zens before the law (icovopia). ‘To these Pericles added two further principles, which the Greeks considered characteristic of radical democracy, namely, selection for office by lot and payment of all officials. Lot had been used for selecting the archons since 487 B.C., but now it was extended to the selection of councilors. At the same time the archonship was opened to the third property class, the Cevyiroa, those able to keep only a team of oxen (fedyos). Now that any citizen, rich or poor, might be selected for office, it became essential that officials should be paid. Soon pay was instituted not only for the archons and councilors but also for the 10,000 members of the jury panel, who received a small wage for each day they sat in one of the courts into which the Heliaea was now dividedE74 Athenaze: Book II H EKKAHSIA (§) VOCABULARY Verbs &pxa, &pko, ipEa, ipypar, HpxOny + gen., active or mid- dle, I begin; + gen., active, Trule émPovreto + dat., I plot against vanifa, [voute-] vouré, [vout-] évéuioa, vevoutxa, vevd- uicpar, évopiaOny, I think manpéa, I fill mpoaya, I lead forward Nouns fh dvayen, tig dverens, ne- Axdpa, tig xdpas, land Adjectives &Bbvatos, -ov, impossible; in- capable Bvvatés, -i, -6v, possible; ca- pable éxdrepos, -@, -ov, each (of two) Byor0s, -a, -ov + dat., like teheutaios, -&, -ov, lost tordabe, tordde (note the ac- cent), todvée, such (as the fol- lowing) ror0bt0¢, torasen, torobto, such cessity xpdvi0g, -&, -ov, lengthy ih Bixn, tig Sixng, custom; jus- Preposition tice; right; lawsuit; penalty Kath + acc., down; distribu- 4 Bbvante, tfc Buvdpeas, tive, each; by; on; according power; strength; forces to; of time, at (military) Adverbs 4 Sides, 10d iStdtov, private ibiq, privately person. eC, on foot fh otpatid, tig otparias, Expression army avayxn éoti(v), it is neces- A tiph, ths tlufig, honor sary 4 tpénog, tod tpdnov, manner; way Spelling The following passage and the passage at the end of this chapter are adapted from the historian Thucydides. He used the Ionic spelling -oo- in words that in Attic have -rt-, e.g., npdioocwv for rpértew; he used the Homeric and early Attic spelling Eiv (Evv-) for abv (avv-); and he used és (é0-) instead of eic (cio-) and alet instead of éei. We have preserved these spellings in the passages from Thucydides. In Chapter 22 when the narrative returns to Di- caeopolis and his family, we use the Attic forms. Chapter 23, based on Thucy- dides, again uses his spellings. Chapter 24 on the education of Philip, which includes a passage adapted from Plato, uses the Attic forms. In chapters 25 and 26 the readings are based on Herodatus, and some features of his Ionic Greek are preserved, o.g., & for ei¢ and np&ocw for xpéttw. More features of his Ioniv Greek are preseved in the readings in chapters 27 and 28.21.

In the following lines (fragment 9), he warns them of the danger of tyranny. His warning was prescient; thirty years later Pisistratus became tyrant of Athens.

There will be no danger that the enemy will (may) harm us, Subordinate clauses introduced by uf state what is feared; such clauses of fearing may be introduced by verbs such as goBotya or expressions such as xivb0véc éstwv, and the verb of the clause of fearing is in the subjunctive (present or aorist, differing in aspect only). When the clause of fearing is negative, the introductory yr is accom- panied somewhere in the clause by 08, e.g.: Epofosunv wh ev Karp odx deixapar Iwas afraid that I would (might) not arrive in time. ‘Where English uses the infinitive, so does Greek, e.g.: ood par 10670 novfioat. Iam afraid to do this. Note that if the introductory verb or clause is in the present tense, we translate the subjunctive with will or may, but if the introductory verb or clause is in a past tense, we translate the subjunctive with would or might22, H ANAZTAZIZ (a) 8 Exercise 220 Read aloud and translate into English: 1.

The farmers were afraid that the enemy would (might) destroy their homes. 5. Are you not more afraid (Don't you fear rather) to sail home than to go by land? 2. Indefinite or General Clauses In relative, temporal, and conditional clauses, the indicative mood is used if the clauses are definite, i.e., specific in reference or in time. If the reference or time is indefinite or general, éiv + the subjunctive (present or aorist) is used; &v is placed after the relative pronoun or combined with some temporal conjunctions and with the conditional conjunction et. Relative: Definite: névteg éxetvoug tia of €v Eadapivi guaxéoaveo. All honor the men who fought at Salamis. Relative: Indefinite or General: Barre dv EEw tav rergSv pévy, dnoGaveirar ond tav xoreptov. Whoever remains outside the walls will be killed by the enemy. (Present subjunctive = ongoing process)Athenaze: Book II Boris Av tobt0 norqon, ttnfic dEwWs Eon. Whoever does this is worthy of honor. (Aorist subjunctive = simple action) Temporal: Definite: énel eig td Korv dptxdpeda, xpic tiv ayopdv éonetcapev. When we arrived at the city, we hurried to the agora. Temporal: Indefinite or General: énerSity (= éneid} + dv) cig td Botw Yapev, xpdg thy dyopiiv oncsSopev. Whenever we go to the city, we hurry io the agora. Temporal: Definite: ot Enapriétar gudyovro tems mavtes Enecov. The Spartans were fighting until all fell. After a negative main clause, npty is usually used: al yovaixes abt dniAGov xpiv dgixeto d iepetc. The women did not go away until the priest arrived. Temporal: Indefinite or General: usivare Bug &v ExavéAOn d nari. Wait until father returns. Again, after a negative main clause, xptv is usually used: ai yovaikes obk amido: mpiv &v dgixntar d tepets. The women will not go away until the priest arrives. Conditional: Definite: el th Mepredet mareders, wépog cf. If you believe Pericles (now), you are foolish. Conditional: Indefnite or General: dav (= ci + dv) th Meptxhei miotedapev, udpot éopev. If we ever believe Pericles, we are (always) foolish. The last example above is also called a present general condition. Indefinite Relative Clauses: Note that dons, itis, 8 t1, anyone who, whoever; anything that, what- ever; pl., all that; whoever; whatever, is commonly used with év in indef- inite relative clauses with the subjunctive, as in the second example in the list above.
