The Cambridge Latin Course is the most popular and most successful Latin course in the UK. With over 4,000,000 copies sold, its methods are well established and highly effective. There are five Books in the Cambridge Latin Course which take students from beginner to Level 2/GCSE. The story-based Course provides an enjoyable and carefully paced introduction to the Latin language, complemented by background information on Roman culture and civilisation. The material progresses from simple stories written specially for the Course, through adaptations of Roman authors, to original texts. The texts are accompanied by explanations of key language points, and are supported by grammar practice exercises. CLC IV (stages 29-34) Book IV focuses on imperial Rome, looking at key features of the city itself and various aspects of Roman life, including social structure, architecture, religious beliefs and entertainment. CLC V (stages 35-40) Book V is set in and around the court of Emperor Domitian and the stories explore the tensions and effects of living under a tyranny. Topics covered include town and country life, the emperor's council, the senatorial career and marriage. Verse by Martial and Ovid is integrated with the stories and themes, and the language notes include a systematic introduction to verse word order. |
