Latin is a concise, flexible and beautiful language which was used for centuries both in everyday life and by scholars. It has provided vocabulary and concepts widely employed in law, politics, theology, medicine and in many texts of the musical tradition.
For anyone with an interest in European history however, a working knowledge of Latin is essential. The earliest examples date back to the third century BC but it was the expansion of the Roman Empire which established Latin as a lingua franca around the Mediterranean.
This semester the Language Centre will be offering over 80 classes in 14 different languages. Classes range from Beginners to Post A level and are available in Latin. This semester we will have both online and in person teaching.
Our Latin speakers, can train you and, if need be, the rest of your group at a time that is suitable to you, at your home or place of work.
