Synopsis
Do memories of your grammar lessons haunt you and other textbooks overwhelm you? Then ‘Teach Yourself Beginner’s Latin’ is for you. Using this book and accompanying CDs, follow a Latin story set in a medieval monastery, where conspiracy unfolds in the cloisters, Vikings threaten to attack, and young lovers set out to unmask the villains. Sample some classical Latin too, and learn more about the authors who wrote it.
‘Teach Yourself Beginner’s Latin’ is ideal for complete beginners because it introduces the language step by step through an interesting and humorous story. Each unit contains grammatical explanations and vocabulary support. There are plenty of exercises to practise each point as it is introduced and help you remember what you have learnt. There are two revision units so that you can check your progress and review areas of difficulty. ‘About Latin’ sections give lots of information about the history of the language and its influence upon English. ‘Living Latin’ sections contain pieces of authentic Latin, most of which is classical. They are included to give you an idea of what there is to enjoy once you have mastered the language and the translations are given.
Two recording on the accompanying double cassette contains the story and the ‘Living Latin’ sections of the book, and will enhance your enjoyment of the poetry and give you an idea of what Latin sounded like.
The CDs (0 340 87045 1) and book (0 340 87041 9) can also be purchased separately.
Alternatively, the listening material is also available on a double cassette which can be purchased on its own (0 340 87044 3) or in a pack with the book (0 340 87042 7).
