Course Description:
This course builds on Latin 101 and 102 by covering complex grammar and expanding our look into aspects of Roman culture and society as Latin speakers created it with their words. How did Latin speakers describe the spaces where they lived, worked, and worshiped the gods? How did they interact with each other as citizens and family members? We'll read selections from ancient Latin texts and discuss their translation and interpretation. This course also prepares students for advanced Latin courses.
