LAT PROSE TO AD 14: Cicero

Latin 120 Section 1 (4 units)

SAILOR, D

Fulfills the L&S breadth requirements in Arts & Literature and Historical Studies

In this class we'll read in Latin a speech, some philosophical writing, and some letters by M. Tullius Cicero. At the undergraduate level, you often encounter him only at the intermediate stage, mainly as an opportunity to improve your Latin; my intention in this senior-level course is that we should come to some more substantive and satisfying critical understanding of the written work of Cicero, the crucial intellectual figure of the late Republic.
