5.0 out of 5 stars De bellatori gallico - docet et delectat!, February 14, 2008
By

Asterix Gallus erat primum librum pictum comicum de Asterige et Obelige vertitum in lingua latina. Etiamsi ignoras librum, historia simplicia: Anno a.C.n. L tota Gallia a Romanibus occupata est. Tota Gallia... nisi singularis vicus Gallis indomitabilibus inhabitatus. Hic Asterix Obelixque vivunt. Amant cenare porcum et resistere invasoribus. Et summum: Delirant isti Romani!

4.0 out of 5 stars Liber ridiculus, atque humanus, February 8, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Asterix Gallus (Asterix Latin) (Paperback)
"Asterix Gallus" is a Latin translation of "Astérix le Gaulois" the first (1961) of the famous Asterix comics by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo; the translation (1974) is by one "Rubicastellanus". These comics are particularly well-suited for translation into classical Latin, since their setting---Gaul in the first century before Christ---largely eliminates the need for non-classical vocabulary. "Asterix Gallus" is funny, and one can learn a lot of Latin in it. But it's not really a good beginner's text. The Latin is far from simple, and there is quite a bit of polyglot wordplay--hilarious if you get it, but potentially very confusing if you don't.
