While the study of Latin is an essential basis for understanding English and the modern Romance languages, and the reading of Latin authors in the original language promotes genuine appreciation of much English and European literature, the intellectual discipline of Classical studies is an aim and a reward in its own right. After mastering the basics of grammar, vocabulary, and syntax, students learn to read and interpret important works of ancient literature in their original languages. |
