Beschreibung

In a tradition stretching back over a hundred years, Hillard & Botting have guided generations of Latin students along the path to fluency. Classical scholars of any age will find these exercises are the natural prelude to North & Hillard's canonical textbook, and a solid basis for GCSE exam success.

"In those days, we felt a strong sense of cultural continuity. As we trudged through Kennedy's Latin Primer or Hillard & Botting, we knew we were treading a well-worn path. Some of our textbooks had been printed in the 1890s and one of the Latin masters would invariably address boys by their fathers' names if he had taught them." Malcolm Turnbull MP, Prime Minister of Australia

Reviews

"I now have everything I need to get a good grip on both understanding and writing Latin."

"Superb compilation. A must if studying Latin."

Über den Autor

Albert Ernest Hillard (1865-1935) was High Master of St Paul's for 22 years. An Anglican clergyman and talented classicist, he ordered three immediate innovations, the holding of Confirmation classes, the introduction of the 'modern' pronunciation of Latin, and the institution of the prefect system. Dr Hillard also encouraged the teaching of English Literature to pupils, as there had previously been no provision for any specialist English teaching, and many boys were failing their university entrance exams. At the time, one teacher noted it was ironic that schoolfellows of Milton should in the matter of English be "the hungry sheep who looked up and were not fed".
Collaborating with Michael Arthur ('Neddy') North of Clifton College, he wrote Latin Prose Composition (1895) which remained the standard textbook in English grammar schools for much of the twentieth century; this, more than his leadership, was his legacy to education. Hillard was profoundly shy, and avoided both teachers and pupils alike, only on the rarest of occasions visiting a classroom. Staff salaries stagnated during his time in charge of St Paul's, and this, combined with his social difficulties, meant he had few admirers. A history of the school written a quarter of a century after his retirement glosses over Dr Hillard's 22 years as a stepping-stone between two personality-driven leaders.
