LANGUAGE COURSES IN ANCIENT GREEK AND LATIN
Language courses in Ancient Greek and Latin, organised by the Classical Association of Ireland, will take place in Trinity College Dublin, from 25 June – 6 July 2012. There will be beginners and intermediate courses in both Latin and Greek. The purpose of the courses is to provide an opportunity for those with little or no knowledge of Greek or Latin to acquire a foundation in the language in a brief period of intensive study. It is designed to serve the needs of a variety of students; those who may wish to pursue a degree in Classics but have had no opportunity to study Greek or Latin at second level; those who need Greek or Latin as an aid to studies in related fields such as Philosophy, Biblical studies, Theology, Romance languages, English literature and Medieval studies; and those who are simply interested in language and in Hellenic and Roman culture.
The courses will be taught by experienced language teachers and will consist of three meetings per day with intervals for study between sessions. The courses will be for beginners and also for those who have already reached the standard attained at the end of the beginners course (e.g., the first three sections of Reading Latin and the first four sections of Reading Greek). It is hoped that, by the end of these courses, students will have acquired a sufficient grasp of the elements of the language to enable them to read simple texts.
The courses are open to all persons over 16. The fee is €200.00 (undergraduates, school students and pensioners €100.00). Registration forms can be obtained from the CAI website: classicalassociation.com or from Professor Andrew Smith, School of Classics, University College, Dublin 4 (andrew.smith@ucd.ie). To secure a place registrations should be sent as soon as possible, accompanied by full fee, to Professor Smith.
The textbook for the Greek courses is Reading Greek (2 vols. 2nd. Edition) prepared by the Joint Association of Classical Teachers and published by Cambridge University Press and for the Latin courses Reading Latin, P. Jones and K. Sidwell (2 vols.), Cambridge University Press.
These should be purchased in advance of the courses and can be ordered from Hodges Figgis
