Latin III
Essentially a course in Latin literature, students carefully engage in reading from a range of classical authors. The works of Seneca and Pliny are examined both stylistically and philosophically. Selections from Catullus, Horace, and Ovid's Metamorphoses introduce students to the variety and complexity of Latin poetry. Martial is read as a representative figure of the early Empire. The year concludes with an introduction to Vergil's Aeneid, laying a solid foundation for continued study.
