2011 Summer Intensive Latin Workshop Schedule

Note: This schedule is tentative and designed to give students a general idea of the structure of a typical day in the workshop. A final schedule will be posted closer to the beginning of the course.

Schedule for the First Half (Weeks 1-6)

The first half of the workshop is devoted to a survey of classical Latin grammar. New material will be introduced by the director in the afternoons; the following morning the first-half instructors will lead the students in review and grammar drills, as well as administer a daily quiz. Exams, which will occur approximately four times during the course of the semester, will preempt the morning drill sessions.

Schedule for the Second Half (Weeks 7-10)

During the second half of the workshop, students will "enroll" in two reading courses, one in prose and one in poetry. These are not separate courses from the point of view of registration, so students do not need to decide which two courses they will take until the third or fourth week of class (in time to get their books). The courses offered in 2011 will be:

Prose Courses

Sallust's Bellum Catilinae (Walin)

Another Prose Course (to be determined by that course's instructor when she or he is selected)

Poetry Courses

Vergil's Aeneid: Book 2 (Walin)

Another Poetry Course (to be determined by that course's instructor when she or he is selected)

The precise schedule for the second half will be announced during the workshop.
