This is a summary of current activities on the GreekStudy list, an open
email list dedicated to the study of the Greek language: Homeric,
Classical, and Hellenistic/Biblical (Koine).  Active groups include:

  � RV Schoder & VC Horrigan, 'A Reading Course in Homeric Greek' (Homerc)
  � WMounce, 'Basics of Biblical Greek' (Koine - beginners' group)
  � Xenophon, 'Anabasis' (Attic - translation group)

Anyone may join or drop a study group at any time.  If you are interested
in participating in a particular group: first, check that group's web page;
if you do not find the information you seek, send email to that group's
coordinator. If you wish to start a new group, initiate the discussion on
the list and/or contact one of the coordinators listed below for assistance.

A volunteer coordinator will set a study group's agenda, and will collect
and collate assignments, which will then be posted to the list for
comparison and discussion.

If you don't want to see all the postings on the list, please use your
email reader's filtering software.  Group-specific postings will have a
group tag in their subject line for easy identification, as indicated below
in square brackets: "Group: [ ... ]".  You may also subscribe to the digest
version of the list for easier handling of the list traffic.
