The official publication from OCR and Bloomsbury for the set texts to be studied at GCSE level, with first teaching in September 2016. Starting with an introduction to ancient Greek history and
culture, which will set in context the passages for the exams, students are guided through the key themes and issues when translating ancient Greek, both for the unseen passages they will meet
in the exam and in the set texts that they will prepare themselves. These prescribed texts will subsequently be set out in clear passages, with vocab and study questions against each section. A
detailed index of vocabulary at the back of the book will complement the timeline, Who’s Who and glossary at the start to give students a focused preparation for their exams. The book is
supported by a website of teacher notes, model translations and student exercises and worksheets.
