Living Latin - Living History in Rome
Summer Course
June 1 – July 1st, 2011

Living Latin is an intensive program in Rome that embraces Rome's layers of history on a daily basis. Classroom teaching is expertly taught by PhD professors that are familiar with the city and its history. They will teach Latin-- grammar, syntax, vocabulary-- through related readings (poetry and prose) from various moments in Rome's history. They will also engage students by teaching Latin as a spoken language. Morning classroom teaching is followed with afternoon walks through the city reading ancient authors in the locations where history happened, as well as inscriptions in their original locations.

Level I: Students should have 2 years high school Latin or 1 year of college Latin.

Level II: Students should have 2-3 years of college-level Latin.

Each Saturday will include a trip outside of the city with related readings.
Sundays are free for travel, leisure, and time to explore.
