This unit aims to extend and further develop skills of independent reading and interpretation of literary texts in Latin. These texts will be studied from the perspective of their generic, thematic or historical inter-relations, as evidenced by close reading of texts, and by consideration of commentaries and secondary literature. Upon conclusion of this unit students will have developed knowledge of the issues raised in relation to the texts studied and their interpretation. They will have developed an appreciation of the literary style of the texts studied and improved their fluency in reading and translating of Latin.
On successful completion of this unit successful students will be able to:
1 x 1 hour seminar per week
1 x 2 hour seminar per week
These will vary every year depending on the text(s) chosen.
