Cornelius Nepos's Lives Of The Excellent Commanders (1813) By John Clarke

 

John Clarke (1687-1734) was a mater of Grammar School from 1720 to 1732 and afterward published ambitious and popular works on education reform and the teachings of Latin. An outspoken critic of the traditional style of teaching classics. He particularly cited the drudgery of elementary memorization of rules and the absence of adequate English translations as flaws. While schoolmaster he published translations of a number of classical authors, including Ovid, Suetonius, and Sallust; this version of Cornelius Nepos was also popular and reached its fifteenth London edition by the end of the eighteen century.
