LATN7202: Latin for Postgraduates 2

2025 unit information

This unit builds on the knowledge and skills acquired in LATN7201, enabling students to read more complex Latin texts. It concentrates particularly on reading skills and the syntax of the sentence, while also introducing further grammatical concepts and constructions.
