RECOMMENDATIONS
GREEK AND LATIN.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO CANDIDATES IN GREEK
AND LATIN.
In order to define as far as possible the precise scope of these University
Examinations, and in answer to requests for advice as to text-books, the
Professor ot Classics has thought it advisable to issue the following outline
Syllabus, accompanied by certain recommendations (which art not to be
regarded ax in any sense prescriptions) of books.
THE MATRICULATION EXAMINATION.
GRKBK (Paw):—
(a) Accidence.—Declension of nouns (regular and irregular), adjectives and pronouns ; genders; comparison of adjectives and
adverbs; conjugation of verbs in a>, /it, and contracted;
paradigms of chief Irregular verbs.
N.B.—Thit section is of essential importance.
(b) Syntax.—The chief rules for concord, use of the article and
pronouns, government of cases, leading distinctions of tenses
and moods, conditional sentences, cases after prepositions,
(e) Composition.—Easy sentences (direct and oblique) involving the
above knowledge and a vocabulary ot common words.
A. Ii,—Soundness of accidence, and concords is essential,
(d) Translation of easy unseen Attic prose passages involving the
same knowledge differently tested.
(«) A prepared Book—Literal translation within the limits of proper
English. Thorough knowledge of grammatical constructions
contained. Parsing of words and sentences. Knowledge ot
the subject matter and the circumstances of the work.
The book chiefly recommended for sections a, 6, c, is " Greek Rudiments," by J. Bumet.
For Honours:—
(a) Accidence.—Thorough (tor Attic Greek).
(6) Syntax.—More advanced than for the Pass.
(c) Composition.—Prose Passages of moderate ease.
N.B.—Specially recommended :—'* Introduction to Greek Prose
Composition," by A. Sidgwick.
(d) Translation ot unprepared passages.
(e) Prepared Books; attention to English style ; grammatical and
literary knowledge of tho text.
LATIN (Pass) :—
(a) Accidence.—Thorough.
N.B.—Especially recommended:—"The New Latin Primer**
(Postgate), pp. 1-66 and 112-144.
JV. B.—This section is of essential importance.
(6) Syntax.—Chief rules for concord, government of cases, use of
moods, sequence of tenses, conditional sentences.
N.B —Especially recommended:—"The New Latin Primer"
(Postgate).
RECOMMENDATIONS—GREEK
AND LATIN;
II
(c) Composition.—Easy passages of prose Involving the knowledgespecified above.
N.B.—Soundness of accidence and concord is essential.
(d) Translation of easy passages of Latin from books not prescribed,.
testing the above knowledge In another way.
(e) As in the Greek.
For Honours :—
More advanced work In each of the above sections, b. c, d, e, " TheNew Latin Primer," thoroughly known, will be found sufficient
for the purposes ot sections a and 6, For purposes ot revision
in section c, Abbott's " Latin Prose Through English Idiom"
is a serviceable book.
THE ANNUAL EXAMINATIONS.
GRKRK.—Part I. (Pass): —
(o) Accidence.—Thorough (for Attic).
(6) Syntax.—The chief rules.
(c) Translation from Classical Greek. For the purposes of this
examination, the Intention is an unprepared passage or
unprepared passages from the more easy portions ot prose
and verse writers In the Attic dialect. Candidates should
ractlse themselves in frequent attempts to render (without
Ictionary or notes) passages of authors not prescribed, and
should then verify and correct such renderings,
(rf) Translation of passages of moderate ease into Greek prose.
Sidgwick's "Introduction to Greek Prose Composition" larecommended.
N.B.—Soundness of accidence and concord is essential,
(e) The Prescribed Books.—Literal translation within the limits of :
proper English ; knowledge of the usage of the words, and of
the regular and irregular constructions involved ; parsing of
words and sentences; literary criticism; knowledge of:
historical, geographical, or technical matter properly
connected with the subject.
S
LATIN—Part I. {Pass) :—
ia) and (6) Accidence and Syntax.—As much as is contained In the
** New Latin Primer" (Postgate).
(c) Translation from Classical Latin.—See directions for the corresponding section in Greek. Part I.
id) Translation Into Latin Prose.—Recommended: Abbott's "Latin.
Prose Through English Idiom."
Candidates are advised to render passages of Latin authors (Cicero, Livy
etc.) Into Idiomatic English, and, after some lapse of time, to re-translate
them Into Latin, and to verify and correct their production by means ot
the original..,
(«) The Prescribed Books.—See directions for Greek, Part I.
12
RECOMMENDATIONS—GREEK AND LATIN.
ORIEK.—Part II. :—
The work is on the same lines as that for Greek, Part I., but is somewhat
more advanced in each section. The same book will suffice for composition.
In the unprepared translation, the passages will not necessarily be taken
Irom Attic writers. Goodwin's " Moods and Tenses " should be studied.
LATIN.—Part II. :—
Generally more advanced than Part I., but on the same lines. The Latin
.Grammar by Gildersleeve and Lodge is recommended.
In all these examinations it must be borne in mind that no amount of
excellence in the prescribed books can atone for a general failure in the
other sections ot the subject. Thc first essential is soundness ot accidence
and concords. No marks can be allotted to a composition or a translation
which is disfigured throughout by mistakes in gender, number, case, and
inflcxioEi. A firm knowledge of thc elementary grammar (as defined above)
is thc surest step towards success. With the aoove scheme before them,
Candidates should treat sections a and 6 as of first importance. On these
•their su-jceee with sections c and d will ultimately depend.

EXAMINATION.
NOTICE TO CANDIDATES IN FRENCH AND
GERMAN.
ISSUED BT TIIK BOARD OF EXAMINBRS, AUGUST,
1003.
It is proposed in future to make a clearer distinction between the Frenoh
and German Pass Matriculation Papers and the Honour Papers.
1.—GENERAL REMARKS.
It has been thought advisable to make thc following recommendations
in order to define, as far as possible, the scope of the University Examinations in these subjects, and also to establish on more deflnite lines the
study of modern languages in thc Schools which are preparing candidates
for the University.
The Examiners have two main objects in view :—
(a) To prepare a Pass Paper which could be regarded by Schools as
a sure and practical test of their pupils* knowledge in the
elementary stage of modem languages.
(b) To readjust slightly the standard of the Honours Papers so as to
make those candidates, who wish to pursue the study of both
languages, more fit for a University Course.
Candidates will be expected to answer to the satisfaction of the Examiners in each division of the papers undermentioned (Pass and Honours).
The Pass papers will be made shorter than previously so as to facilitate a
higher percentage of marks, and so provide a better test of efficiency.
2.—SPECIAL REMARKS.
(A) PASS—FRBNCII AND GRBMAN—
The Pass Papers will be divided into three distinct parts, including :—
I. Translation from French or German into English.
II. Easy translation from English into French or German with
the commonest idioms.
III. Questions on Grammar (Accidence and Chief Rules of
Syntax).
(Soundness in this Section is essentia!).
Candidates are recommended :—
(a) To acquire a vocabulary of the words most commonly used.
(b) To translate passages from modern French or German authors
(XlXth century),
(e) To translate passages from English into French in the style of
those in Blouet's or Roulier's composition books and from
English extracts of similar range into German.
7A
100
DKTAIL8 OF SUBJECTS.
•(B) HOHOUBB— FEBHCH AUD GBEMAN—
The Honour Paper will also be divided as follows :—
I. Translation.
II. Composition.
II. Idiomatic expressions and questions on rules of grammar.
IV. Questions in derivation and Short Essay in French or
German.
(Sections 2, 8, and 4 are of essential importance.)
Candidates are recommended :—
(a) To acquire a vocabulary of wider range than for the Pass paper.
(6) To translate passages from French authors of the XVIIth,
XVIIIth, and XlXth century (from Corneille to the present
day), and from German authors ot the XVIIIth and XlXth
century (from Lessing to the present day).
(e) To translate passages from English into French in the style of
those In Pellissier's or V. Spiers' or Marietta's composition
books and from extracts of similar range for German.
Clapln's primer of French philology will prove useful to Candidates who
take Honours.
N.B.- In respect to the so-called new French rules it should be understood that the " Arret* Ministeriel" ot the 26th February, 1901, does not
reform or change the spelling of words. Its object Is merely to simplify
the teaching of Syntax by admitting of "tolerances" on the part of
Examiners. There has never been any Intention of suppressing certain
fundamental rules of Syntax, and any one who does not know these rules
Is sure to make mistakes.
•At the Examination In December, 1004, and at all subsequent Examinations, Honour Candidates will also be examined in reading, pronunciation, and writing from dictation.

in which he is allowed to present himself for the examination in military subjects.
11. Literary Examination.—The literary examination of

will be an obligatory subject of such examination.

107
examination, will be held in September in each year.
The subjects and the maximum marks obtainable in each
subject will be as follows :—
Marks.
1. Military Engineering...
2. Military History
...
3. Military Topography
...
...

In order to qualify for a commission, a candidate will be
required to obtain one-third of the marks in each subject,
and half of the aggregate. Not more than three trials will
be allowed at these examinations.
14. Inspection by Medical Board.—A candidate will be
required to undergo an inspection by a medical board, t o
be convened by the Governor of the colony, or other proper
authority, and will not be allowed to proceed with his
examination unless recommended by this board to be
physically fit for Her Majesty's service.
The general conditions as to height, weight, chest
measurement, eyesight, 4 c , required, are given in
the Appendix to these Regulations. The board have,
however, discretionary power to recommend a candidate
slightly below one or other of these conditions in a case
in which they are satisfied t h a t he will fulfil them within
six months. No relaxation, however, of the eyesight
qualification will ever be allowed.
15. It is suggested t h a t a candidate before commencing
his course of study should undergo a thorough medical
examination. By such an examination any serious physical
disqualification would be revealed, and the candidate probably spared expense and tho mortification of rejection.
16. Candidates may undergo a preliminary examination
by a military medical board, not more than two years before
they compete, under the following conditions :—
(a) Applications must be addressed to the Governor
of the colony, accompanied by a fee of Two
guineas.
(4) Instructions will be issued for the examination
to take place at the military station where a
medical board can be held, nearest the candidate's residence. The result will be notified t o
candidates by the board.
108
COMMISSIONS IN THE BRITISH ARMY.
(r) Candidates must pay their travelling expenses.
{d) Candidates found unfit by the preliminary board
are not bound to accept its finding, but may,
at their own risk, continue their studies, and if
successful at the competitive examination may
then submit themselves for medical examination by the final medical board.
(?) I t must be distinctly understood t h a t passing
such preliminary medical board is solely for
the candidate's information, and would give
him no sort of claim to be accepted as
physically fit when he presents himself as a
candidate.
His acceptance will depend
entirely upon the report of the final medical
board. Candidates may be fit for the service
a t the preliminary examination, but may
become disqualified by some subsequent
physical deterioration.
The recommendations of the board will, in all cases, be
absolutely final.
The following are the subjects of the Literary Examination referred to in Number Eleven of the Regulations:—
I.—(1)
Arithmetic.
(2) Algebra.
(3) Geometry..
(4) French or German. (5) Geography.
These subjects must be passed a t some Matriculation
Examination, but if the Candidate has passed any or all
•of them previous to his Matriculation he will not be
required to pass such subject or subjects a second time.
II.—(1) Writing English correctly, and in a good
legible hand, from dictation.
(2) English Composition, tested by the power of
writing an essay, letter, or precis.
The Candidate will not be required t o pass this Examination if he has passed in English at some Matriculation
^Examination.
III.—The elements of geometrical drawing, including
the construction of scales and the use of
simple mathematical instruments.
COMMISSIONS IN THE BRITISH ARMY.

Greater importance will be attached to neatness and
exactness of drawing than to ability to solve geometrical
problems.
IV.—Pure Mathematics, Part I., and one of the following subjects:—
Greek, P a r t I.
Latin, Part I.
History of the British Empire, P a r t I.
French.

the remainder, with the exception of Freehand Drawing, in
the second year of the course for the Degree of Bachelor
of Arts.
The Council will consider applications of candidates in
the month of Jlarch of each year, and candidates must
apply for nomination not later than the 1st February,
having previously passed the Literary Examination and
being qualified in other respects.
N.B.—A candidate for a Commission in the British Armymust be a Matriculated Student of this University.
MILITARY CADETSHIPS.
The Secretary of State for War has consented to a
temporary renewal of the system by which a yearly nomination to the Royal Military College was formerly allowed
to each of the chartered Universities in colonies not having
a Military College through which Commissions in the Army
may be obtained.
The upper limit of age for candidates will now be 20 years.
Applications must be received by the Registrar on or
before the 1st February in each year.
COMMISSIONS IN MEDICAL DEPARTMENT OF
ROYAL NAVY.
The Council is from time to time asked to nominate
qualified Medical Practitioners for Commissions in the
110
ADMISSION OF BARRISTERS AND SOLICITORS.
Medical Department of the Royal Navy. Due notice will
be given of any such nomination, but intending applicants
are advised to inform the Registrar in advance of their
desire to compete.
ADMISSION OF BARRISTERS AND SOLICITORS.
Owing to the changes introduced by the Legal Profession
Practice Act 1891 and the various amending Acts, candidates for admission as barristers and solicitors fall into
various classes, qualifying in separate ways, and any information which the University can give must be received
with the caution t h a t the qualifications of candidates are
dealt with, not by the University, but by the Board of
Examiners, and ultimately by the Supreme Court.
All persons other than those who have been admitted
as barristers or solicitors in some part of Her Majesty's
dominions, or who had not rights reserved by the Acts,
must, it seems, qualify in one of two ways, viz.:—
(1) Under Act No. 1216, section 11, as amended by Act
No. 1387, section 9, and explained by Act No.
1387, section 3.
(2) Under Act No. 1387, sections 4 and 5.
In both oases the course extends over about five years.
1.—These candidates qualify bypassing certain examinations and being articled to a barrister and solicitor, and in
regard to the order in which he will seek bis qualifications
t h e candidate has some discretion. The following points
deserve special notice:—
(a) Before being articled he must have passed the Matriculation or other Examination prescribed by the Rules of the
Supreme Court. The Rules of November 26th, 1892, govern
this Examination, subject to t h e provisions of Act No.
1387, section 9, whereby persons who have not passed in
Latin at their Matriculation Examination are deemed to
have complied with the law when they have, after Matriculation, passed in Latin a t any Annual Examination.
(o) The further Examinations are ( a ' ) the two Annual
Examinations in Law and the Examination in Jurisprudence
ADMISSION OP BARRISTERS AND SOLICITORS.
Ill
in the University of Melbourne, (A') a final examination
prescribed by the Rules of the Supreme Court.
{ a ' ) These examinations must be passed either before
entering upon, or after the expiration of, articles (Act 1216,
section 11, subsection 27); but a candidate is deemed
to have complied with the rule, notwithstanding t h a t
he passes in Jurisprudence before being articled and
the Annual Examinations after the expiration of his
articles, or passes the Annual Examinations before being
articled, and in Jurisprudence after the expiration of
articles.
For tho subjects of the Annual Examination see Reg. x.,
sections 0 and 9, and the " details and recommendations "
as to the respective subjects; for the manner of passing
examinations, see Reg. iii., div. iv.
(A •) The Pinal Exainination prescribed by the Rules of
the Supreme Court, to which every person must submit
" not earlier than six months before the expiration of his
articles of clerkship, and before he apply for admission
to practise in the Court." The subjects and manner of
passing will be found in the Rules of the Supreme Court
published on October 1st, 1896.
2. The second class of candidates qualify by (a) taking
the Degree of Bachelor of Laws in the University of
Melbourne or in any University recognised by the University of Melbourne, (A) serving articles for two years, and
{c) passing the Final Examination mentioned above. One
year a t least of the term of articles must be served after
the degree is obtained. I t is possible that this course may
offer some advantages beyond the colony through the
recognition generally given to University Degrees.
The Statutes and Rules relating to admission are:—
Acts 1216; 1229 (certain persons giving notice before
January 1st, 1892); 1275 (an Act to facilitate the admission
of certain English, Scottish, and Irish Barristers and
Solicitors), and 1387.
Rules.—November 26th, 1892 ; October 1st, 1896.
