LAT 1111 (010): Introduction to Latin I
LAT 1112 (020): Introduction to Latin II
Villanova's "Intensive Summer Latin Program" (now in its sixth year) provides students with an opportunity to complete the first year of college-level Latin in eight weeks. The first session (Intro Latin 1111, 28 May-25 June) presents basic grammar and syntax, while the second session (Latin 1112, 27 June-28 July) focuses on readings from a variety of classical authors (including Eutropius, Cicero and Vergil).
Note that each session confers three credit hours, and that students need not enroll for both. Students who successfully complete the Intensive Program will be well prepared to begin intermediate-level Latin instruction at university.

GRE 1131 Accelerated Beginning Ancient Greek II
The University of Florida offers the opportunity for students to acquire a full year of ancient Greek in a single summer. After completion of GRE 1130 and 1131 will be prepared to read ancient Greek texts such as Plato, Homer, and the New Testament. Because the summer courses are small (usually 10-15), students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with UF's experienced Ancient Greek teaching team.

Latin Institute -- Summer 2008
Block A (June 9-27) – Intermediate Latin Prose Composition - 1 unit
An intensive course designed for teachers and students who are in need of a general refresher course or who are approaching Roman authors in Latin for the first time. Class time will be dedicated to review of more complex Latin constructions, prose composition, and translation. This course varies in content from year to year and may be taken more than once. This summer's course focuses on two great Roman writers, Caesar and Cicero. Readings will center around the figure of Cicero's brother, Quintus, depicted in Caesar's 'Gallic Wars' as a heroic lieutenant and as a notorious governor and contentious husband in Cicero's letters.
Instructor – Alison Orlebeke
Colloquium (The final 2 weeks of block A) .50 units – Latin Teaching Methodology*
Instructor – Richard Beaton
Block B (June 30-July 18) - Vergil
In this intensive Latin reading course, we read extended selections from Vergil’s three canonical works, the Eclogues, the Georgics, and the Aeneid. Although our primary purpose is improving reading fluency and speed in Vergilian Latin, we will also discuss literary, historical, and grammatical topics that arise. If you already have editions of these works, please bring them.
Instructor: Kendrick
Block C (July 21 – August 8) – The Romans* (in English) - 1 unit
The Romans
Focus on Republican and Augustan Rome. In 31 BC, Octavian, the sole heir to Julius Caesar, defeated Mark Anthony and Cleopatra in the battle of Actium. This was the final battle in a civil struggle that left him as the sole ruler of an immense European and Mediterranean Empire whose government had been based on a total rejection of one-man rule. This course is an investigation into how the Roman Republic (509-31 BC), marked by violence and periods of dictatorship in its last 100 years, is reconciled in the early years of Augustus’ Principate. Selections from Republican and Augustan literature from 50 BC to 14 AD to be read in English.
Instructor – FitzGibbon
Colloquium (Throughout block C) – Catullus .5 units – Selections from the 1st C BC poet to be read in Latin with the intent of keeping up on and improving Latin reading skills.

The beginning courses spend at least the last four weeks on original texts; the intermediate courses focus on prose and include intensive grammar review, including prose composition.
First-year Greek students, especially: please bring a laptop along, if you have one, preferably equipped with wireless internet. LEARN the alphabet before you come, please.

Mental and physical health note: Both for-credit and audit participants will gain full access to facilities such as the Regenstein library and the brand-new gym, with Olympic-size pool.
Financial health note: If you do not require academic credit, but 'just' want to learn Greek or Latin, consider the auditing option offered on the Graham School website. This is a substantial savings, and faculty will not treat auditors any differently from for-credit participants. NOTE: 2008 may be the last year in which an audit option is available.
