Classics

In Levels I through Advanced Placement, the goal is to encourage Latin students to become involved first-hand with the Classics by acquiring the ability to read standard Latin authors with competence and appreciation. Understanding of the social and political history of the ancient Romans, along with related topics in Greco-Roman mythology, religion, and literature is developed. The Classics Department promotes the additional benefits gained from the study of Latin, such as sharper insight into the grammar of other languages including English, and the acquisition of English vocabulary. A highlight of the Classics program is the Latin Carol Service which gives students the opportunity to read Latin in a public speaking setting.  This service includes classical choral compositions and takes place each December.

A full course list is available in the Brunswick Course Catalogue.
