Synopsis
Latin is a great language. Considering how many classics were written in it, how many English words derive from it, and how many Latin expressions continue in use today, its's amazing that anyone would call it a "dead language." Through Learn Latin's twenty clear, high-spirited, and anxiety-free chapters, you can master enough grammar and vocabulary to confidently read the poems of Catullus or the Latin Bible in just twenty weeks. If your goal is simply to pick up a bit more of the genius of Latin embedded in our culture, no problem. These pages will allow you to immerse yourself in the richest of all linguistic pools. Originally written as a series of article in London's Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph, the lessons were enormously and instantly popular, not only because they work, but because Peter Jones added lively features on Roman history and Roman personalities- allowing readers to get inside the heads that first formed the words. In addition to its exercises (and answers!) Learn Latin includes a grammatical summary, a vocabulary listing and eighteen- or rather xviii -charming illustrations.
