''A Dissertation Against Pronouncing The Greek Language According To Accents'' is a book written by Henry Gally and published in 1754. The book argues against the practice of pronouncing the Greek language according to its accents, which was a common practice at the time. Gally argues that this practice is incorrect and that the accents were not intended to be used for pronunciation. He contends that the proper way to pronounce Greek is according to the rules of quantity and that the use of accents leads to errors in pronunciation. The book provides a detailed analysis of the history of Greek pronunciation and the development of the accent system. It also includes examples of correct and incorrect pronunciation and provides guidance on how to correctly pronounce Greek words. Overall, ''A Dissertation Against Pronouncing The Greek Language According To Accents'' is a scholarly work that provides valuable insights into the history and practice of Greek pronunciation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
