Course summary

Latin involves the study of the Latin language and literature, and Roman civilisation. You will have the opportunity to visit archaeological sites and museums in Italy as part of your programme. The level at which you enter depends on whether you have taken Latin before. If you are a complete beginner, or have studied some Latin, you will enter our level 1 class. If you have a good Higher or A-level pass, you may be able to start Latin at level 2.You will be provided with a strong foundation of grammar and vocabulary, leading to the reading ofsimple passages of genuine Latin. You will learn to read elementary texts in Latin and to translate Latin into English. You will have the opportunity to increase your knowledge of vocabulary and grammar, enabling you to translate passages of literary Latin into English. You will read works by a range of authors, and study literary and social contexts as well as language and style, developing your critical skills, so that you may write well-argued and researched essays. If you progress to Honours you will have the opportunity to spend at least three weeks (usually during the summer vacation after year 3) visiting archaeological sites and museums in Italy.
