This program introduces Latin to beginners, guiding them to proficiency in reading classical Latin texts with dictionary support. The intensive nature of the course stems from small class sizes, with approximately 30 students in Year 1 and just 2-8 students in Years 2 and 3. Consistent attendance is crucial for success in the final exams.
Mastering Latin reading skills proves invaluable for graduate studies across ancient, medieval, and early modern history and culture, making it an excellent complement to Archaeology, Celtic Studies, History, Art History, and Religious Studies programs.
Learning classical Latin enhances English literacy by strengthening grammatical understanding and revealing the Latin roots of many English technical terms.
