To the best of my knowledge (and surprisingly) the only way to do it without some assistance from B.Add() it is to create a new instance of A and then call its Add() method:

class C : B
{
public override void Add()
{
A a = new A();
a.Add();
}
}

base.Add() will of course just call B.Add() and

((A)this).Add() will cause C.Add() to be called recursively because it's a virtual method and '(A)this' is still a C.
