Tired of your friends saying Latin is a dead language? Come and speak some conversational Latin at Conuiuium Latinum! Learn some conversational Latin from some of your classics peers in a relaxed 1 hour Face to Face session. A basic knowledge of Latin (gained from completion of LATN1100 or an equivalent Beginner Latin course) is expected so that you get the most out of the program. And remember, lingua Anglica eat lingua barbarica!

We hold a fortnightly reading group for participants to develop their understanding and analysis of ancient texts, and to gain different perspectives as to select texts and topics, explored via group discussion. A new and exciting range of topics is offered in each 1.5 hour session, including the mythological and supernatural, to medicine, geography, politics, and war, through to literature – there is always something thrilling to explore!
