F LATIN 1 BEGINNING READING AUSTIN G. SCHMIDT, S.J., MEMORIAL LATIN SERIES Paul F. Distler , S.J. Saint Louis University High School LOYOLA UNIVERSITY PRESS , Chicago 1961 © 1961 Loyola University Press PA 2087 Dosl vil PREFACE The influence of the study of linguistics upon the presentation of teaching materials in modern -language textbooks cannot be denied . And, as was to be expected , the study of Latin, too, has felt the impact of linguistic studies. Teachers and students are no longer surprised at the changes that have come about in the materials they find in the more recent Latin texts, especially those for first and second years . As with every science, the study of linguistics has created a new terminology and many of the terms now appearing in textbooks require considerable study before they are adequately understood. New , too, is the analysis of forms and the categories to which they are assigned. This text will, however, eliminate as much as possible all reference to the new technical terms and will retain traditional terminology . The materials for study, though, will be presented in a way that will make use of some of the contributions of linguistics to the study of language. The objectives of teaching Latin remain still to be clearly deter mined . Speaking Latin is not our goal, as it is for the study of modern languages. Yet a moderate use of speaking Latin is a very reliable tool for arriving at an automatic reaction to given language situations . Hence this text will rely upon much oral presentation, particularly in the readings and in the oral drills. The writing of exercises is kept to a minimum . The title of the text suggests the goal that has been set for this text and toward which all the activities outlined in this volume are directed reading Latin and understanding it as it is read. Reading Latin does not mean the skill of instantaneous translation but rather an ability to understand directly from the Latin what has been said. In pursuit of this goal the text strives to bring students to an under standing of the Latin by varied exercises . These include the changing of one Latin construction into another without changing the meaning; meeting vocabulary in context; understanding questions that use con structions which differ from those in the text that has been read; and the answering of questions in Latin . iii 1165785
