LING 11.14 History and Structure of the Latin Language
This course focuses on the grammar, pronunciation, and writing of Latin, starting from its origin in Proto-Indo-European (c. 4000 BC), proceeding through early Latin into the classical period (1st cent. BC to 1st cent. AD), and ending with the post-classical era. Through analysis of language data and reading of selected ancient texts, students will gain a greater mastery of synchronic language patterns, and also will understand the diachronic origins of those patterns.
