Course Description
Academic Year 2024-2025 • Grade 9 and above • Latin Sequence
Latin III
Using the long-established and brilliantly annotated collection From Aeneas to Augustus, this course offers a range of engaging readings on the history of Rome from its foundation down to the end of the Republic. Students will find old favorite stories and discover new ones — from semi-mythical narratives like the story of Horatius at the bridge to wry personal letters of Cicero. Throughout we’ll be systematically reviewing both the grammatical basics that were covered in the elementary Latin sequence and building a framework for understanding Roman history, all of which will continue to be useful in understanding the material of Latin IV.

Prerequisites
Latin II or equivalent. We do not insist that a student take our elementary sequence, but would like to see evidence of equivalent mastery. I have a placement exam that will help us reach a rational point of insertion into the program. Please write to me for clarification if you would like that.
Recommended background
Any previous historical reading in Roman history will be helpful, and any complete elementary course sequence (Wheelock, Henle, Oxford, Cambridge, or others) should suffice as preparation for the grammatical part of the course.
