| Publisher Description: Via Latina is a series of Latin textbooks written for younger students that focuses on the language itself and particularly on the vast literature from Roman antiquity to the European Renaissance. This first volume focuses on vocabulary with some very basic grammar added to help students make the jump to reading basic Latin.Via Latina is a six level curriculum that takes students from the fundamentals of Latin to unadapted reading.- Words (this volume)- Nouns (forthcoming, 2015)- Verbs (forthcoming, 2016)- Pronouns (forthcoming, 2017)- Joining (forthcoming, 2018)- Advanced Verbs (forthcoming, 2019)In the classical education model, these six levels of Via Latina correspond to the Grammar and Logic levels. Additionally, the series is built around connected readings that foster the use of Latin as a language from early stages.These readings include adapted versions of the Vulgate, Ovid's Metamorphoses and medieval moral tales. |
