Classical Languages (Latin and Greek)

A reasonable number of courses of Latin and Greek is made available to students each year. The introductory courses allow students to begin their study of the Classical Languages with no prerequisites and thus gain access to Latin and Greek literature in the original during the course of their degree. In the introductory courses(CLAS-1100(3), CLAS-1101(3), CLAS-1200(3),andCLAS-1201(3)),students are provided with the linguistic skills necessary to enable them to read Greek and Latin fluently. In the intermediate and senior language courses emphasis is placed on training students to read with comprehension as quickly as possible, and in the process of reading the ancient authors students are acquainted with the vital aspects of Greek and Roman society and culture. A wide range of offerings is available in both Latin and Greek. These courses provide students with the sound linguistic background essential for graduate work.
