Oxford Latin Course, Del 3

Four volume Latin Language series. Each volume features a clear presentation of grammar, narrative passages, background sections, emphasis on daily life and on the role of women, a variety of exercises, and review chapters and tests. Each chapter opens with a set of cartoons with Latin captions that illustrate new grammar points. A Latin reading follows, with new vocabulary highlighted in the margins and follow-up exercises that focus on reading comprehension and grammatical analysis. A background essay in English concludes each chapter. Covering a variety of topics--from history to food, from slavery to travel, these engaging essays present a well-rounded picture of Augustan Rome.
