Omschrijving

Learn to read the Romans! This book is an exciting new way to discover the Latin language. Whether you want to master it or just see enough to enjoy some time travel, The Latin Tamer makes the journey a pleasure.

This book's approach to Latin is distinctive. It teaches the language through thousands of real ancient quotations. Every quotation is explained on the spot, so you'll never be confused about what the words mean and why. This approach lets you learn about topics in any order that works best for you. It makes Latin fun.

The Latin Tamer is written with the clarity found in all of Ward Farnsworth's books. Every idea is explained in plain language and illustrated with charming examples. The book is especially ideal if you're interested in Stoicism and other great ideas from the classical world. It contains countless illustrations from Seneca the Younger, Cicero, and other thinkers whose insights have stood the test of time. You'll learn Latin by reading the writers who interest you the most.

Latin puts you into direct contact with the thought and culture of the ancient Roman world. It lets you enjoy beautiful ways of saying things that can't be experienced in English. Knowing Latin, or even just being familiar with it, is an improvement to the quality of life of any thinking person. Let The Latin Tamer be your guide.
