Keep your Latin alive !
Latinitas mmxvi
Living Latin seminar, summer 2016
Quis ? All those who have studied the elementary basics of Latin (declensions and conjugations) are welcome, even if you have never spoken Latin. (Do not worry, you are coming to learn!)
Quid ? A seminar where everything will be in Latin (conferences, workshops, meals, evening, recreations, interaction between those participating). But do not worry: we will help you. It will be a lot easier than you think.
Ubi ? At the Foyer Saint-Thomas (Couvent de la Haye-aux-Bonshommes).
Nearest train station : Angers.
Quibus auxiliis ? Recommended works to prepare yourself:
1) Orberg, Lingua Latina, volume 1 : Familia Romana ;
2) Desessart : Le Latin sans peine (Assimil, old version).
A list of common vocabulary will be provided.
Cur ? Because Latin is the language of our fathers (since the time of the Gallo-Romans), of our mother (the Sancta Ecclesia Catholica), of our brothers (French is only well understood through Latin) and of our cousins (even in English, more than half the words come from Latin). – And a language is meant to be spoken!
Quomodo ? Conferences, for all, will alternate with practice in groups by level and recreational activities.
Quando ? From Tuesday 16th of August (9AM) to Saturday 20th of August (6PM).
