LATIN 311 - Roman Literary History Survey II

Credits: (3)
This is a one-semester advanced course in Latin for students who have completed the equivalent of two years of study of Latin at the university level. The course requires reading skills but still continues to provide students with a broader foundation in all of the basic linguistic skills and cultural proficiency and appreciation. The primary focus will be on poetry (epic, lyric, elegiac) with representation by major Roman poets, e.g., Catullus, Horace, Ovid, and Vergil, as well as Mediaeval poetry, e.g., Carmina Burana, Stephen Langdon, St. Bonaventure, Tommaso di Celaeno. Upon completion of LATIN 301 with C+ or better, eligible students will receive six credits prior learning for LATIN 300. Prerequisite(s): LATIN 102 Beginning Latin (3) or equivalent.
