DANTE ALIGHIERI COURSE OUTLINE (LATIN V – MARCH 2025)
TEXTBOOK: AD ALPES
The full text of the original (1927) edition of Ad Alpes, with interlinear translation, commentary and recordings is available on my own site at https://linguae.weebly.com/ad-alpes.html. The 2017 Latinitium edition, available as a book only, is basically the same, with just a small number of corrections, but all students are required to purchase a copy for use in class. The book can be ordered from Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Ad-Alpes-Tale-Roman-Latin/dp/1981365737 or directly from https://latinitium.com/ad-alpes/
The schedule below involves reading one chapter per week, which I originally planned to supplement with Luke Ranieri’s recordings of Orberg’s Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata accompanied by rolling text. Unfortunately most of these have now been removed from the web at the request of Orberg’s children and/or the publisher. The first chapter is at present (25/3/25) still available at https://archive.org/details/youtube-_Zt19wzsW-c and it is planned to use it in the second and third sessions. I purchased Orberg’s own recordings of the book many years ago and will see if I can convert it from CD to a usable format. Orberg is also available in book form but you are advised NOT to prepare this in advance so the material can be used for sight reading and listening practice. Unlike Ad Alpes, which uses all the basic Latin constructions from the start, Orberg is a beginners’ course and will thus serve as reinforcement of students’ grammatical foundation.
The lessons will also include general conversation and systematic grammar reviews as well as other aids available on-line. The schedule is a tentative one and the pace may be altered depending on the needs of the class.
