The Sound of Greek | William Bedell Stanford
Pickpick

An interesting set of lectures on ancient Greek sounds and the classical views on euphony in prose and poetry. Stanford makes a strong argument for the use of the pronunciation of the classical period with tonal accents and pre-Byzantine consonants.
