We will study together not only the language that has given us more than half of the words we use in English, but also those aspects of Roman culture, history, and religion that are alive and relevant in the modern world. You will take the National Latin Exam in the spring, celebrate your success with an authentic Roman feast, and finish the year with the study of ancient Greek and the singing of the first lines of “The Iliad” in the cadence and language of Homer.
