Latin may be dead, but its influence lives on. The language is an important root of the vocabulary and structure of Romance languages and English, and the Roman culture surrounding the language has remained influential on Western thought and culture for two thousand years. This class will introduce students to the fundamentals of the Latin language in an intensive, accelerated context with the aim of swiftly preparing them to begin reading original classical and medieval texts.
