2024-2025 Latin 2

From: $655.00

CLASS DESCRIPTION

This course is the continuation of Latin 1. In this class, students will complete Wheelock’s Latin and practice reading longer and more complex passages from ancient, medieval, and Renaissance authors. The latter half of the course will orient students towards the foundational genres of Roman literature such as epic, history, lyric poetry, epistles, and satire.

The aim of Latin 2 is twofold: firstly to provide students a strong grammatical and philological foundation that will enable them to read well whether they continue onto Latin 3, college Latin courses, or study independently. Second, and just as importantly, this class aims to encourage a love and understanding of the Latin language and its literature throughout the ages.

NB: Students who have not taken Latin 1 at the House of Humane Letters, but have prior Latin experience should contact Dr. Phillips to discuss options. Latin 2 assumes that its students have finished the first 20 chapters of Wheelock’s Latin.

Latin 2 – Policy Guidelines for Live and Self-Paced Students

Due to the nature of a language class, we will have a slightly different policy on how to accommodate both live and self-paced students to ensure that all of our students are receiving the full benefits of the class (as much as possible).

There are 2 potential options:

1) Fully live students. These students will be required to turn in their weekly homework and complete the midterm and final exams. Homework and exams will be made available on Canvas, to be completed on each students’ own time by a certain date. There will be a 1 week window for completing the exam, during which the class will review the material expected on the exams.
2) Self-Paced Available upon Discussion with the Instructor. Self-Paced students are still required to complete homework and exams in a modified time frame depending on their situation. Self-Paced students are also encouraged to communicate regularly with the instructor about their progress.
NB: The instructor will not be taking attendance or participation as a specific grade item. Homework is graded on completion and not correctness. Students will receive corrections and feedback on their homework, but only quizzes and exams will be formally graded.
