LAT 201 - Culture and Civilization

[4 credit(s)]

Prerequisite: Completion of LAT 102 or LAT 114 with a grade of C or better; or permission of the instructor. An introduction to some aspects of Latin culture and civilization through close reading and analysis of significant works of classical Latin prose; specifically the “Cupid and Psyche” story from Apuleius’ “The Golden Ass.” Other readings, including texts on English on Latin culture, will be assigned as appropriate. A secondary goal is to build upon the skills gained in first year Latin through grammatical topics appropriate to the intermediate course.
