About this title

Synopsis

'First Year Latin' combines the best of the new teaching methods with the best of the old. It includes cultural material about Roman life, including stories of leaders, government, education, literature and art, as well as emphasizing he Latin language itself and its influence on our own English language as well as on all the Romance languages.

Each lesson in this book introduces new forms, syntax, and vocabulary followed by much drill and a variety of exercises on the new material. A special section entitled 'Word Study' deals with word derivations, meanings of prefixes and suffixes, explanation of roots, and gradual changes of meaning through the centuries. AT the conclusion of each lesson is a reading also based on the new material. After every fourth lesson there is a review lesson which includes all the new vocabulary and provides additional exercise material.
