内容简介

T.H. Robinson published "Paradigms and Exercises in Syriac Grammar" in 1915 to meet the need for "something of an elementary nature which should be of value to the student who takes up Syriac for the first time". Though the book was recognised as a success, teachers recognised its weaknesses and this fifth edition is a thorough revision. Much of the old explanatory text and many of the exercises have been superseded. Some matters of grammar and pronunciation receive more systematic treatment and there are additional appendices to introduce the Estrangela and East Syriac scripts. In its format and level, however, the book aims to be, as before, an approachable introduction to this language.
