Description
A common challenge that Latin students encounter is that they often find themselves without an opportunity to practice their newly acquired language skills outside the regular academic year. This course, typically offered in the spring or summer session, aims to help students both retain what they have learned and further improve their understanding of Latin. We will read extensive passages of continuous Latin (either poetry or prose) in order to sharpen students’ understanding of the language. Along the way, we will discuss the grammatical structures that we encounter and analyze the historical significance of our readings and what they can teach us about Roman society and culture.
Prerequisite(s): LATN 203 and permission of the instructor.
Note: Students may take this course more than once for credit, provided the topic covered in each offering differs substantially. Students must consult the Department to ensure that the topics covered are different
