![]() ![]() Students are thus gradually and effectively introduced to the reading and understanding of classics. Learners are constantly exposed to the language: initially, in Familia Romana, a very simple – yet true and authentic – Latin, and then, gradually, a more complex and elaborate language: most of Roma aeterna, the second volume, contains original texts of classical authors, with their refined language and style (but already in the first volume students read some excerpts from the Gospels, the poets Catullus, Ovid, and Martial, and the grammarian Donatus). Morphology and syntax are first inductively assimilated, by the identification of recurrent structures and the necessary reflection, and then organized in a systematic manner. It follows the inductive-contextual method (or nature method), which is based on the text and the context, from which students draw forms and constructions, and the meaning of words and phrases. The Latin course Lingua Latina per se illustrata is divided into two volumes, Familia Romana (for the basic level) and Roma aeterna (for the advanced level). The aim of this course is to allow the student to read fluently and understand correctly Latin classics: active use of the language – writing and speaking in Latin – is strongly recommended, because it is a very important and effective means to achieve that goal but speaking Latin is certainly not the final goal of our course. It is our common opinion, based on our studies and experience, that Lingua Latina per se illustrata, by Hans Henning Ørberg, is the most effective of all Latin courses, for learners of at least 12 years of age.
