"Intensive Basic Latin offers a straightforward approach to the rudiments of Latin. Its clear explanations of Latin grammar and consistent use of vocabulary will help any student develop a firm foundation for mastering the language." Christine L. Albright, University of Georgia, USA
"This is a refreshing new introductory textbook that is well-suited to intensive college and undergraduate courses. Thorough and well-structured, it provides an accessible step-by-step tool for learning Latin while also permitting an intensive, fast-track approach to the language which will put students in a position to begin reading Latin texts within a year." Mark Bradley, University of Nottingham, UK
Intensive Basic Latin: A Grammar and Workbook comprises a dynamic reference grammar and related exercises in a single volume. The book presents forty individual grammar points, covering the core material which students would expect to encounter in their first year of learning Latin. Grammar points are followed by contextualised examples and exercises which allow students to reinforce and consolidate their learning.
There is a particular emphasis throughout on familiarising students with real, unadulterated Latin and the task of teasing information from the Latin via translations. To this end, there are matching exercises with unedited Latin excerpts and rough English translations in the chapters, encouraging students to take a hands-on approach in their learning. In addition to this, a short reading relating to the adventures of Hercules is presented at the end of almost every chapter; these readings, which become progressively more complex, give the course a strong sense of narrative cohesion and interest and provide students with opportunities to develop their comprehension and translation skills.
Key features include:
Written by an experienced instructor, Intensive Basic Latin: A Grammar and Workbook is an ideal resource for beginning students of Latin. It can be used as a textbook, grammar reference and practice resource and is suitable both for class use and independent study.
