LING 11.14 History and Structure of the Latin Language

This course focuses on the grammar, pronunciation, and writing of Latin, starting from its origin in Proto-Indo-European (c. 4000 BC), proceeding through early Latin into the classical period (1st cent. BC to 1st cent. AD), and ending with the post-classical era. Through analysis of language data and reading of selected ancient texts, students will gain a greater mastery of synchronic language patterns, and also will understand the diachronic origins of those patterns.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
