5.0 out of 5 stars Review from the Publisher, March 15, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Second Latin (Paperback)

This second year Latin course supposes the previous study of "Latin Grammar," by the same authors.

It is intended for students who can devote only two years to the study of Latin and who must by prepared to read intelligently Latin textbooks of philosophy, theology, and canon law. Therefore the vocabularies, word studies, exercises, and connected passages have been selected with this practical purpose in mind.

The first half of the book is based on philosophical texts; the second half is drawn from the works of theology and from the Cod of Canon Law. At the end of the volume is a vocabulary of 3,000 words, which may serve the purpose of a concise dictionary. 270 pages, PB.

3.0 out of 5 stars No answer keys!, July 2, 2008

This review is from: Second Latin (Paperback)

I like the structure of the book and how it guides you to learn the ecclesiastical Latin language. What irritates me is there are no answer keys at the end of each exercises. You don't know if you made a mistake or not. This will totally leave you in the dark. SED LUX LUCEAT IN TENEBRIS!!!
