CL/LN/LT323 - Latin Language and Literature

This course has the purpose to give students an intermediate preparation in Latin grammar and a more detailed knowledge about Latin literature. It will examine the several phases, genres and styles of Latin literature in chronological order and in a diachronic perspective, with constant reference to historical and political contexts. It will also present a selection of some of the most important Latin authors by introducing their main themes and key topics. Visits to archaeological sites in Rome will connect the authors’ works to the context of their everyday life. The study of Latin literature will start with the most ancient author we know, Livius Andronicus (III century B.C.) and it will develop in chronological order, from the Republican to the middle Imperial period. The chronological limit of the course is the II century A.D.
