The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges. GENERAL EDITOR: THE VERY REVEREND J. J. S. PEROWNE, D,D., DEAN OF PETERBOROUGH. THE want of an Annotated Edition of the BIBLE, in handy portions, suitable for School use, has long been felt. In order to provide Text-books for School and Examination purposes, the CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS has arranged to publish the several books of the BIBLE in separate portions at a moderate price, with introductions and explanatory notes. The Very Reverend J. J. S. PEROWNE, D.D., Dean of Peterborough, has undertaken the general editorial supervision of the work, assisted by a staff of eminent coadjutors.

The quotations from the Classics are apt; and the references to modern Greek form a pleasing feature."-The Churchman. "Copious illustrations, gathered from a great variety of sources, make his notes a very valuable aid to the student. They are indeed remarkably interesting, while all explanations on meanings, applications, and the like are distinguished by their lucidity and good sense." Pall Mall Gazette. THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST MARK. By the Rev. G. F. MACLEAR, D.D. With 3 Maps. 4s. 6d. "The Cambridge Greek Testament, of which Dr Maclear's edition of the Gospel according to St Mark is a volume, certainly supplies a want. Without pretending to compete with the leading commentaries, or to embody very much original research, it forms a most satisfactory introduction to the study of the New Testament in the original... Dr Maclear's introduction contains all that is known of St Mark's life, with references to passages in the New Testament in which he is mentioned; an account of the circumstances in which the Gospel was composed, with an estimate of the influence of St Peter's teaching upon St Mark; an excellent sketch of the special characteristics of this Gospel; an analysis, and a chapter on the text of the New Testament generally. The work is completed by two good maps, one of Palestine in the time of our Lord, the other, on a large scale, of the Sea of Galilee and the country immediately surrounding it."-Saturday Review. "The Notes, which are admirably put together, seem to contain all that is necessary for the guidance of the student, as well as a judicious selection of passages from various sources illustrating scenery and manners."-Academy. THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST LUKE. FARRAR. THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST JOHN. PLUMMER, M.A., D D. With 4 Maps. 6s. By Archdeacon [Nearly ready. By the Rev. A. "A valuable addition has also been made to 'The Cambridge Greek Testament for Schools,' Dr Plummer's notes on 'the Gospel according to St John' are scholarly, concise, and instructive, and embody the results of much thought and wide reading."-Expositor. London: Cambridge University Press Warehouse, 17 Paternoster Row. THE PITT PRESS SERIES. 1. GREEK. THE ANABASIS OF XENOPHON, Books I. III. IV. and V. With a Map and English Notes by ALfred Pretor, M.A., Fellow of St Catharine's College, Cambridge; Editor of Persius and Cicero ad Atticum Book I. 25. each. "In Mr Pretor's edition of the Anabasis the text of Kühner has been followed in the main, while the exhaustive and admirable notes of the great German editor have been largely utilised. These notes deal with the minutest as well as the most important difficulties in construction, and all questions of history, antiquity, and geography are briefly but very effectually elucidated.”—The Examiner. "We welcome this addition to the other books of the Anabasis so ably edited by Mr Pretor. Although originally intended for the use of candidates at the university local examinations, yet this edition will be found adapted not only to meet the wants of the junior student, but even advanced scholars will find much in this work that will repay its perusal."-The Schoolmaster. "Mr Pretor's 'Anabasis of Xenophon, Book IV.' displays a union of accurate Cambridge scholarship, with experience of what is required by learners gained in examining middle-class schools. The text is large and clearly printed, and the notes explain all difficulties. Pretor's notes seem to be all that could be wished as regards grammar, geography, and other matters."-The Academy. BOOKS II. VI. and VII. By the same Editor. Mr 2s. 6d. each. "Another Greek text, designed it would seem for students preparing for the local examinations, is 'Xenophon's Anabasis,' Book II., with English Notes, by Alfred Pretor, M. A. The editor has exercised his usual discrimination in utilising the text and notes of Kuhner, with the occasional assistance of the best hints of Schneider, Vollbrecht and Macmichael on critical matters, and of Mr R. W. Taylor on points of history and geography. When Mr Pretor commits himself to Commentator's work, he is eminently helpful. Had we to introduce a young Greek scholar to Xenophon, we should esteem ourselves fortunate in having Pretor's text-book as our chart and guide."-Contemporary Review. THE ANABASIS OF XENOPHON, by A. PRETOR, M.A., The Text revised with Critical and Explanatory Notes, Introduction, Analysis, and Indices. By H. HAILSTONE, M. A., late Scholar of Peterhouse, Cambridge, Editor of Xenophon's Hellenics, etc. 2s. 6d. ARISTOPHANES-RANAE. With English Notes and Introduction by W. C. GREEN, M.A., Assistant Master at Rugby School. 3s. 6d. ARISTOPHANES-AVES. Edition. 3s. 6d. By the same Editor. New "The notes to both plays are excellent. Much has been done in these two volumes to render the study of Aristophanes a real treat to a boy instead of a drudgery, by helping him to understand the fun and to express it in his mother tongue."-The Examiner. ARISTOPHANES-PLUTUS. By the same Editor. 3s. 6d. EURIPIDES. HERCULES FURENS. With Introductions, Notes and Analysis. By J. T. HUTCHINSON, M. A., Christ's College, and A. GRAY, M.A., Fellow of Jesus College. 25. "Messrs Hutchinson and Gray have produced a careful and useful edition."-Saturday Review. THE HERACLEIDE OF EURIPIDES, with Introduction and Critical Notes by E. A. BECK, M.A., Fellow of Trinity Hall. 3s. 6d. London: Cambridge University Press Warehouse, 17 Paternoster Row. LUCIANI SOMNIUM CHARON PISCATOR ET DE LUCTU, with English Notes by W. E. HEITLAND, M.A., Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge. New Edition, with Appendix. 35. 6d. OUTLINES OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF ARISTOTLE. Edited by E. WALLACE, M.A. (See p. 30.) II. LATIN. M. T. CICERONIS DE AMICITIA. Edited by J. S. REID, M.L., Fellow and Assistant Tutor of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge. New Edition, with Additions. ..... 3s. 6d. "Mr Reid has decidedly attained his aim, namely, 'a thorough examination of the Latinity of the dialogue.'. The revision of the text is most valuable, and comprehends sundry acute corrections. This volume, like Mr Reid's other editions, is a solid gain to the scholarship of the country."-Athenæum. "A more distinct gain to scholarship is Mr Reid's able and thorough edition of the De Amicitia of Cicero, a work of which, whether we regard the exhaustive introduction or the instructive and most suggestive commentary, it would be difficult to speak too highly. When we come to the commentary, we are only amazed by its fulness in proportion to its bulk.. Nothing is overlooked which can tend to enlarge the learner's general knowledge of Ciceronian Latin or to elucidate the text."-Saturday Review. M. T. CICERONIS CATO MAJOR DE SENECTUTE. Edited by J. S. REID, M. L. 35. 6d. "The notes are excellent and scholarlike, adapted for the upper forms of public schools, and likely to be useful even to more advanced students."-Guardian. M. T. CICERONIS ORATIO PRO ARCHIA POETA. Edited by J. S. REID, M.L. New Edition, with additions. 25. "It is an admirable specimen of careful editing. An Introduction tells us everything we could wish to know about Archias, about Cicero's connexion with him, about the merits of the trial, and the genuineness of the speech. The text is well and carefully printed. The notes are clear and scholar-like.. No boy can master this little volume without feeling that he has advanced a long step in scholarship."-The Academy. M. T. CICERONIS PRO L. CORNELIO BALBO ORA- "We are bound to recognize the pains devoted in the annotation of these two orations to the minute and thorough study of their Latinity, both in the ordinary notes and in the textual appendices."-Saturday Review. M. T. CICERONIS PRO P. CORNELIO SULLA 3s. 6d. ORATIO. Edited by J. S. REID, M.L. "Mr Reid is so well known to scholars as a commentator on Cicero that a new work from him scarcely needs any commendation of ours. His edition of the speech Pro Sulla is fully equal in merit to the volumes which he has already published. . . It would be difficult to speak too highly of the notes. There could be no better way of gaining an insight into the characteristics of Cicero's style and the Latinity of his period than by making a careful study of this speech with the aid of Mr Reid's commentary... Mr Reid's intimate knowledge of the minutest details of scholarship enables him to detect and explain the slightest points of distinction between the usages of different authors and different periods. The notes are followed by a valuable appendix on the text, and another on points of orthography; an excellent index brings the work to a close."-Saturday Review. M. T. CICERONIS PRO CN. PLANCIO ORATIO. Edited by H. A. HOLDEN, LL.D., late Head Master of Ipswich School. 45. 6d. "As a book for students this edition can have few rivals. It is enriched by an excellent introduction and a chronological table of the principal events of the life of Cicero; while in its appendix, and in the notes on the text which are added, there is much of the greatest value. The volume is neatly got up, and is in every way commendable."-The Scotsman. "Dr Holden's own edition is all that could be expected from his elegant and practised scholarship... Dr Holden has evidently made up his mind as to the character of the commentary most likely to be generally useful; and he has carried out his views with admirable thoroughness."-Academy. "Dr Holden has given us here an excellent edition. The commentary is even unusually full and complete; and after going through it carefully, we find little or nothing to criticize. There is an excellent introduction, lucidly explaining the circumstances under which the speech was delivered, a table of events in the life of Cicero and a useful index. Spectator, Oct. 29, 1881.
