ITALIAN.

B. A. COURSE.

No previous knowledge of the language is required, but some knowledge
of Latin or French will be helpful. The object of this course is to
introduce the student into the language by easy steps and to present
to him the language in its modern form as represented by the most
popular authors. A rapid review is made of the grammar, then an
introductory reader is taken up, and then some complete work. Special
stress is laid on pronunciation and weekly exercises are required.

Text-Books.—Grandgent's Grammar; Bowen's Reader; De Amicis' Cuore
and La Vita Militare; Pellico's Le Mie Prigioni.

M. A. COURSE.

The same requirements exist here as in M. A. German.

Text-Books.—Vockeradt's Grammatik: Manzoni's I Promessi Sposi; Tasso's
Gerusalemme Liberata; Dante's Divina Commedia.
