Highlights

This course continues on from Beginners´ Latin 2 and will be based principally on material from chapters to 21 to 30 in the textbook Latin via Ovid , including coverage of the main uses of the subjunctive. The emphasis will be on developing a basic reading ability but with some oral work in addition. The course will also deal with cultural aspects of the ancient Roman world and of the continuing use of Latin in later centuries.

The main PowerPoint presentations to be used, which cover the stories of Orpheus, Jason and Theseus, are available at http://linguae.weebly.com/latin--greek.html by scrolling down to the heading `Teaching Aids for Latin via Ovid' . There will be a relaxed and supportive learning environment and the course is not exam-based.’
