Lingua Latina is a complete immersion course providing Latin that students read and understand immediately. Every sentence is intelligible per se because the meaning and function of all new word forms is clear from the context, illustrations, or marginal notes throughout this carefully graded text.Part 1 (Familia Romana) is the eventful and entertaining story of a Roman family, which also serves as an introduction to the life and culture of ancient Rome.Students who have completed Part 1 are already able to read classical texts, such as Ørberg’s editions of Caesar’s Gallic Wars or of Plautus’ Amphitryo.In Part 2, Roma Aeterna, the subject is Roman history. Roma Aeterna includes a wide range of classical Latin literature. The main subject of the twenty-one long chapters is Roman history as told by Roman authors themselves. A description of the monuments of Rome is followed by a prose version of Vergil’s Aeneid I-IV, with extracts from the original, and Livy’s Book I, supplemented by extracts from Ovid. At first, Livy’s prose is gently adapted, but most of the book integrates unadapted texts by Livy, Aulus Gellius, Nepos, Sallust, Cicero and Horace with linguistic and historical information in a seamless narrative.In Part 2, students refine their knowledge of syntax and develop a vocabulary of over 4000 words. Upon completion of the course, students can read the most challenging classical texts with relative ease.Please note: Focus Publishing has published this book in the U.S. under a Focus ISBN.
