Latin
Practical Latin Rama C. Madhu A | 15 sessions | beg. Jan. 27 | F 10–11:50 am Latin is a simple language with a complex family history. Knowledge of Latin has practical benefits for the study of language and literature, as the language is the origin of Spanish, French, and Italian and the source of most English words. This course, for beginning and advanced students, is designed to efficiently apply these benefits. We study the historical development of Latin into the Romance languages and the history of Latin’s influence on English. Beginners learn Latin quickly and painlessly using the simplest selections of authors such as Ovid, the Vulgate Bible, and the Carmina Burana. Advanced students broaden their knowledge with writings from Plautus, Spinoza, Pope Francis, and others. 3 CREDITS NLTN 1103 $700
