Cambridge has a long and proud tradition of publishing textbooks in classics. For students of Latin and Greek, we provide leading introductory language courses as well as a range of post-beginner readers and other resources such as grammars and the Cambridge Greek Lexicon. For students at intermediate and advanced level, the highly respected Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics series offers well over a hundred reliable and accessible editions of key texts from antiquity. The list also serves students of classical civilisation and ancient history and philosophy with a range of accessible introductions, sourcebooks in English translation and translations of commonly taught texts, including Sappho and a number of Greek tragedies.
