A Child's First Latin Book - The Biblical and Religious Themes

2012-01-17T05:33:00.000-08:00

Fenton, following the system proposed by the philosopher John Locke, and promoted through the publications of John Taylor, publisher to the University College, London, wrote this interlinear Latin reader as a first Latin book.

This is one of the more accessible student level textbooks, and covers a selection of Bible stories in simplified Latin, along with model sentences,and religious and moral themes.

The text is read in Latin-English-Latin, phrase by phrase.

The second half of the book is a Roman History reader - due to the very different nature of the material covered, I have separated these out into two titles.
Duration: 1 hour, 49 minutes

Reynold s Latin Reader (Nature Study + Novella + Adapted Caesar) length: 4hrs 38 mins (Audio Books)

2012-01-16T06:07:00.000-08:00

Reynold's Latin Reader would be suitable for a modern intermediate student.

You would get the most out of this book if you had previously studied the Orbis Sensualium Pictus, as the first sections deal with science, the universe, nature, etc. The second part would be easier if you had listened to Taylor's adapted Caesar text, or Lowe's Caesar, if you are a complete beginner.

This reader is unique, in having as a strong focus indirect discourse - right from the beginning, Reynolds starts to introduce it, with imaginary students answering questions on the previous lesson. By the time you reach Caesar, the method of presenting reported speech seems natural.

This is a delightful audiobook. A beginning student, after studying Comenius, will be able to tackle the first half without problems, and after some preliminary study of caesar, as suggested, the second half will aldo make for a pleasant experience.

Sancta Missa Anno 1755

2011-12-20T16:57:00.000-08:00

Missa Sancta (in Restored Classical Pronunciation.)
I am currently recording this text in Latin-English-Latin, with repetition in Latin only.
This is a text dating from 1755, and is an academic study text. The Missa Sancta in its various forms can be regarded as an important text in the history of Western Civilization, and many phrases and expressions from it are very common in Latin literature. A passing acquaintance with this text is worth having, especially given its prevalence in the Western musical tradition.

Comenius' Rudimenta Grammaticae & Grammatica Janualis

2011-12-20T13:16:00.000-08:00

(also available in audio - see the catalogue). The audio of this core text is provided in one audio file of just under an hour in length. Image files of the text from the Opera Didactica Omnia are provided, so you can read along with the audio. The complete Grammatica Janualis is also provided in audio, broken up into in several audio files, along with the image files of the text. This is Comenius' second stage Latin grammar.

Januae Latinitatis Vestibulum

2011-08-17T06:44:00.000-07:00

Comenius' Januae Latinitatis Vestibulum.

Audiobook release date: 18 August 2011
DVD contains mp3 files in Latin-English and repeated in Latin only.
It also contains the pdf file for the Vestibulum, in a bilingual Latin-English version, so that you can read along with the audio.

This text is a pleasant introduction to the Latin language, and would also benefit more experienced students, who may have a very limited range of vocabulary.
The Vestibulum gives an essential foundation in the core root words of Latin, enough to begin to start to speak about some things, and to read a variety of very simple texts. The Romans themselves used simple dialogues and fables to teach their children, or foreigners ( we have textbooks from the second century for teaching Latin to Greeks) - so throwing out this model, an eminently sensible one of slowly increasing complexity of the texts, aiming at fluency in 5 to 6 years - has lead to an antire generation being unable to read Latin without translating it into the vernacular in their heads, and poorly equipped to express themselves in the language.

Comenius' Vestibulum imitates these ancient Roman educational texts, as do his grammar texts, which are written in a pleasant , clear and light-hearted Latin style.

The Vestibulum contains a vocabulary of 1000 root words.

The War against the Helvetians - Julius Caesar - Taylor (Publishers) University College London, 1841.
Read in restored classical pronunciation by Molendinarius.
Audiobook Publication date: 18 August 2011

This ingenious text was written for students at University college, London. It makes Caesar accessible to beginning students of Latin. Each sentence introduces only one new word or phrase to the narrative, or one new development of the tense structure. Listening to this audiobook carefully, along with the accompanying text, will help you to develop an intuitive grasp for Caesar and his wonderful dry, tense use of the Latin language.

These poems, written by Sara Coleridge (23 December 1802 – 3 May 1852) , the fourth child and only daughter of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and his wife Sarah Fricker are a delightful if somewhat unusual method for learning Latin vocabulary. Coleridge lived in a small cottage near Hampstead Heath - giving flavour to the poems,which are rich in the names of birds, insects and trees. They were originally written for her own children, and later published in 1834 as Pretty Lessons in Verse for Good Children; with some Lessons in Latin in Easy Rhyme. They are read here by Evan Millner in one sound file, lasting just over 55 minutes. The pdf is provided as a courtesy. The second half of the book contains the verses for learning Latin vocabulary.

Benjamin D'Ooge published an edition of Francois Lhomond's Urbis Romae Viris Inlustres. This DVD contains the mp3 files of all the selections contained in the D'Ooge edition. Charles François Lhomond (1727 – December 31, 1794) attended classes at the Collège d'Inville in Paris, where he subsequently became dean of the school. Later he spent twenty years as an educator at the Collège du Cardinal-Lemoine and afterwards was professor emeritus at the University of Paris. Lhomond's textbook, De viris illustribus urbis Romae a Romulo ad Augustum was used for generations. The textbook is based on Livy, but the Latin is slightly simplified.

John Amos Comenius composed his "Orbis Sensualium Pictus" (The Visible World in Pictures) as a first primer and introductory schoolbook.

He believed the teacher should use visual aids, and, where possible, actual physical models. The curriculum should be wide ranging, and cover all the main areas of everyday life as it was experienced by his students. He does not sanitize the harshness of the world.

Thus all the items mentioned in the text are referenced with numbers to engravings, that are positioned alongside the text.

His young students would find out about the world, and all the main ideas that people had about it, in a simplified form - astronomy, climatology, zoology, botany, human anatomy, philosophy, geography, geometry, musical instruments, warfare, politics, jurisprudence -a student studying this book will accomplish two things - they will build up a vocabulary of a few thousand Latin words, acquire a knowledge of simple grammatical structures ( the sentences are all relatively simple) and in addition, gain an insight into the world, as it was understood by a Protestant Renaissance scholar in the mid 1600's. The Orbis Pictus is recorded carefully in restored Classical Pronunciation, chapter by chapter, and the pdf of the edition used is included on the DVD. This text, despite its advanced age, is still suitable for use by young students. The text used here is the first American edition of 1810. This textbook is one of the most famous pedagogical texts ever written. Comenius' Orbis Sensualium Pictus was also the first ever illustrated children's book - and as such, occupies a unique and important place in the history of education.A small amount of this material is on the podcast, however the complete reading of the text, with each phrase read twice in Latin and once in English, is only available on this DVD.

(97 lessons, of between 1-2 hours audio each lesson, plus review of 7 hrs+)

Disc One (Lessons 1 - 44)
Disc Two (Lessons 45 - 70)
Disc Three (Lessons 71 - 97 + bonus review material )

Adler's Practical Grammar of the Latin Language is a gem of a book - providing a full 3 year Latin course in Audio, with 97 lessons, each lesson divided into several sections:
The first section of every lesson deals with formal grammar, and takes you through the syntax, and conversational examples.
The second section runs through the examples, without the grammar, in Latin/English/Latin.
The third section of each lesson reviews the material twice in Latin only - the first reading is slow, and the second a little faster.

The audio course is much longer than the textbook, and includes additional noun and verb paradigms, and a complete re-recording and review of the exercises in Latin only, on the third disk, designed for consolidation, after the student has completed the textbook. This way, the student can quickly spot which dictata they are weak in, and can return to the textbook to review that chapter.

The Adler course uses restored classical pronunciation, but the Latin is read very slowly and clearly, and the differences in vowel length are deliberately exaggerated - helping you to remember how to pronounce a word when you encounter it in an unmarked text.

The textbooks are available online as free pdf's via google books, or can be purchased as hard copy reprints - a version for Europe and a version printed in the USA is available.
You can download the textbook here.
You can download the answer key here.
Adler's textbook is one of the most comprehensive Latin textbooks ever written. It takes the unique approach of treating Latin like a living language. The material builds gradually in complexity, with an emphasis on frequent repetition. This textbook would be suitable for a complete novice, however, as Adler treats Latin grammar in great detail (without getting bogged down with terminology, choosing instead a descriptive approach), even advanced Latinists would benefit from studying Adler's book.

The goal of the course is to get you to be able to read in Latin , and to think in Latin.

After the student completes this course, they are advised to commence an intensive programme of Latin reading, commencing with simple material, and building up a very firm foundation, before moving on to more advanced literature. Much of this material is provided for you by Latinum. We believe we are putting together one of the most comprehensive Latin courses ever produced - a course that will enable you to reach levels of fluency that, prior to the 1750's ,were expected as the norm. Few students nowadays reach this level of fluency, as they don't have access to an immersion environment. We cannot recreate the all-Latin environment of a renaissance University, but we can offer you something that will help - a large amount of oral Latin, both stories and dialogue - so that you can, if you wish, surround yourself with the language for a few hours a day, and so give your brain the necessary exposure to achieve fluency.

DE AMERICA - A HISTORY READER IN LATIN

2009-12-03T17:21:00.000-08:00

Nutting's "De America". This interesting series of historical stories ( broken into 100 episodes) is composed in relatively simple Latin. It chronicles the period from Christopher Columbus until the founding of the American Republic. Conceived of as a reader introductory to Caesar, the series focuses on the period of discovery, and then on battles between the settlers and the Native Americans, and between the American colonists and the British, interspersed with individual tales of the trials of life during this interesting period of history. Occasional discursions are made when a comparison with Roman history seems apt. This is not a dry re-telling of history, but is a carefully crafted and delightful series of stories, that are well enough written that they bear listening to several times. One of the best Latin readers I have yet encountered.

Read in the restored classical pronunciation of Latin by Evan Millner. Recorded in November MMIX.

Seller:: LATINUM
Category:: Audio Books

This traditional Latin textbook, dating from the very early 20th Century, was produced in audio in November 2009. Many students still enjoy using it, and it is popular with people studying Latin at home. My view is that it is useful to use a variety of textbooks; not every author explains every point the same way. Also, reading or listening to a variety of explanations of the same points is good, and increases the chance of learning the material thoroughly. D'Ooge uses more formal grammatical terminology than either Underwood or Adler. His method is known as 'grammar-translation'. This audio course adds a third dimension to his textbook, turning it into a comprehensible input source as well. D'Ooge's textbook also comes with a mini Latin reader with a graded selection of prose in basic Latin. The pdf that the audio was produced from is provided for your convenience.
An answer key is available for this textbook at textkit.com

Thousands of words, read out by topic in English and Latin in the Restored Classical Pronunciation.

This is an excellent way to painlessly expand your vocabulary - words are arranged by topic. The audio for this DVD was produced in 2008.

Over 80 years ago, Walter Ripman, in his 'Handbook of the Latin Language', organized Latin vocabulary into domains and subdomains. The noted New Testament scholar I. Howard Marshall, himself a student of Latin, claims that Ripman's reference was "an extremely useful way of organizing the material for a student learning Latin vocabulary." This DVD has 50 semantic fields, with sub-fields. It closely follows the pioneering work of Ripman. Each word is read in English and Latin, so correct quantity is learned naturally. Tens of thousands of words are presented - this DVD is intended to be listened to multiple times - initially this will be quite tiring, if not bewildering - however, this system will help to build your vocabulary rapidly, and, if refreshed on a monthly basis, the words you have learned will become consolidated, and new words and idiomatic expressions will become engraved in your mind with each subsequent iteration.

Ora Maritima was re-recorded for this release in November 2009. Ora Maritima is a story in simple Latin written by Sonnenschein during the reign of Queen Victoria. It is set near Dover during the school holidays - and the students take a day hike to a location thought to be Caesar's landing place. The books is a gentle introduction to ideas contained in Caesar's Gallic War, while providing a pleasant enough story in and of itself. Interestingly, a reference is made in the story to the 'Castle Line' - these were passenger ships that sailed between South Africa and Southampton in the days before air travel. My grandparents travelled on one of their ships, the 'Union Castle' (Airliners have names, do you remember the name of a single airliner you ever travelled on? Ships are different aren't they?)

Underwood Latin Grammar for Medical Students 11hrs4mins

Price:
Seller:: LATINUM
Category:: Audio Books

Latinum's issue in audio in November 2009 of Underwood's course in Latin for Medical Students is a unique offering. Underwood wrote his course for medical students taking the Latin examinations at London's Guild of Apothecaries and the Royal College of Physicians in the early 1800's. These students, as non-Latin specialists, required a common-sense approach. The result is a very accessible beginner's Latin course. It would also be useful as a revision course for the more seasoned student, as it approaches the subject from a fresh angle. I am very fond of this course - it is very well constructed - traditional in its approach, but, Underwood has a rare knack for being able to explain matters with great clarity.

Underwood wrote his course for the home school student - but advises of the need to find a Latin teacher who can teach pronunciation - the audio course supplies this requisite. As the vocabulary and examples are drawn from Latin medical and chemical texts, much of this material will be somewhat familiar to the prospective student. This reduces the apparent strangeness of the language, and makes the course more accessible to a non specialist wishing to learn Latin. Needless to say, the course here outlined should be of great value to a student of medicine or pharmacology. Latinum's audio course covers the entire grammar as laid out by Underwood, and the Latin syntax. Underwood, in his introduction, makes a very important observation; it is, he says, vitally important to read - so get your hands on an interlinear text, and start to read, or listen to bilingual Latin texts provided by Latinum for this purpose - for we are thoroughly in agreement with Mr Underwood with regard to this point: a large volume of reading is an absolute necessity if certain progress is to be made in the aquisition of the language.

Underwood's Medical Latin Course comprises three parts:

1. Latin Grammar.

2. Various exercises in building sentences.

3. Latin Syntax.

4. Forms of Prescriptions

The pagination of the book reverts to page one half way through.

The Audio readings ( lectiones) are numbered from 001 to 061

The Introduction is in lectio 001

The Grammar commences in lectio 002

Exercises commence in lectio 035

The Syntax - read in Latin and English, each example twice repeated - commences in lectio 046

Forms of Prescriptions - read in Latin only - are in lectio 60 and 61

These scripted dialogues were first issued in the 1500's, and immediately became a hit - they went through a large number of editions, and were a staple of the Latin schoolroom right through to the late 1700's. A study made of the bookshelves of students who died while in college at Cambridge University ( whose possessions were recorded in the records), shows that these dialogues, and works by Erasmus, were in almost every student's personal library in the early - mid 1700's.

They only lost popularity when the rise of Nationalism and regionalism in Europe lead to less emphasis being placed on oral fluency in Latin, eventually leading to the situation today, when, for the first time since the fall of Rome, Latin as a spoken medium is in danger of extinction.
