Latin II Course Overview
Latin II is a continuation of the Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata Course. The level of Latin reading is increasingly complex in sentence structure and the volume of vocabulary increases markedly. Narratives focus on Roman imperial government and the spread of Roman culture in the provinces. Much focus is given to the living conditions of Roman soldiers during the occupation. The focus then returns to Rome and life in the city. As students study the language, they will also study the connections between Latin words and English vocabulary.
