  • Advanced Ancient Greek II: Ἡρόδοτος (G302)

    This course will introduce students to the particularities of Ionic Greek, the dialect in which Herodotus wrote, while reading in the original many of the "greatest hits" from his monumental work: the scandalous tale of Gyges of Lydia, the opulence of Croesus, Egyptian mummification, the rise of Darius, and of course, the Greco-Persian Wars themselves.

  • Expert Ancient Greek: Πλουτάρχου Ἠθικά (G401)

    You may know Plutarch's biographies of great Greeks and Romans, but the Platonist philosopher was also one of the most prolific authors from antiquity. In the Moralia, a diverse collection of philosophical and ethical essays, he explores topics beyond those of his famous biographies. In this course, we will primarily examine the treatises "Beasts Are Rational", "The Dinner of the Seven Wise Men", and "On Superstition", while also considering excerpts from other works and discussing them in Ancient Greek.

No matter what form of Ancient Greek you are primarily interested in, the immersive learning experience of Bible Camp will aid you in your path towards proficiency. Bible Camp presents a life-changing opportunity to study Greek immersively under the Direct Method, which the Ancient Language Institute uses with hundreds of students online and in-person every year.

I know too many seminary graduates who have forgotten the Greek they learned in school, and since I'm planning on going to seminary, I was determined not to be one of them. I'm so glad I signed up to study with ALI. Instead of paradigms and flash cards, we have page turners and Greek conversations. If you can remember what it was like when you first learned to read, how you looked forward to finding out what happens next, then you'll have an idea of what it's like learning Koine with ALI.
