Latin D: Latin C1 and C2 prerequisite.—A two-year course for those who
desire to specialize in classical philology, especially those who choose Latin as
their major for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. If the candidate's major
be Latin, a respectable familiarity with Greek is required. If the candidate's
major be Romanic, the technical Greek requirement is waived as far as practically
possible, and he is guided into the history of the Roman popular vernacular
and into an acquaintance with the authors illustrating the vulgar Latin in literature.
It is the aim of this course to prepare the candidate to investigate independently
the sources of our knowledge of the language, monuments (literary and
objective), and life of the Romans. The following is therefore an outline of
the course: I. In Language: Elements of comparative grammar; introduction
to Latin historical grammar; systematic (general) grammar; reading of epigraphic
and literary monuments illustrating the history of the Latin language.
II. In the Literary and Objective Monuments of the Romans: Reading of authors
in groups systematically planned to illustrate the literary life of the Romans;
history and interpretation of texts, elements of palæography, epigraphy,
numismatics, and archæology. III. In Roman Life: Constructive study of Roman
culture-history, culminating in the Doctor's Dissertation; the history of
classical philology. Hours by appointment. Professor
FitzHugh and Associate
Professor
Lehman.
