ITALIAN.
What has been said above in reference to German is
applicable likewise to Italian, except that at present only
two courses are offered.
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.
