Abstract:

This collection contains 300 Greek maxims and proverbs accompanied by their
counterparts in eight European languages: English, French, German, Italian,
Spanish, Swedish, Dutch, and Russian.
 
The introduction relates the history, the origin, and the importance of
proverbs; it also includes a short chapter on the use of proverbs in English,
German, French, Italian, Spanish, and Modern Greek literature.
 
This book is a useful companion both for translators and interpreters; a vade
mecum not only for them, but also for every learner of the above mentioned
European languages.
