Abstract
Objectives o To promote the acquisition of the more complex structures of the Latin language by reading, writing, hearing, and conversing.
o To complete a comprehensive survey of the grammar and syntax of the Latin language by introducing some of the more subtle elements of the language and by reviewing the more basic ones. Some of the grammatical items to be covered this semester will include indirect statement, the subjunctive mood and its uses, irrational tenses of the fifth dimension, and deponent verbs, conditional clauses, and gerundives.
o To give students a sufficient grounding in the language so that they may be able to read any Latin author on their own with the use of a dictionary.
o To expose students to a range of the types, authors, and styles of Latin literature and by
this exposure to increase students’ knowledge of the position of this literature in the development of Western culture.
o To consider, discuss, and compose Latin poetry, in keeping with our study of Q. Horatius Flaccus
