Latinum Latin Language Publisher

Please go to the Latinum Website, at

  Latinum.org.uk


Summary:
Latinum teaches Latin. The site opens a pathway to full command of the language. (The YouTube site additionally has French, Hebrew  and English language resources)
You will find everything you need here to learn Latin to an advanced level. There is no need to even buy textbooks, if you are prepared to use digital books. Selected materials are also available on DVD.
Method:
Molendinarius (Evan der Millner) has recreated Adler's famous textbook as an audio course. The methodology is based directly on the course of progress followed by students in the Renaissance, at a time when Latin was used regularly by educated people across Europe for reading, writing, and speaking.
The goal is to give you the tools to master Latin, in all its forms.  To this end, textbooks that were written for teaching Latin as a ‘workhorse’ language are used – including parts of Comenius‘ famous 17th century course ( possibly the most complete Latin course yet written, covering 4 years of full-time education), Adler‘s Practical Grammar, and other supplementary materials.
You can follow the steps  broadly outlined here – but feel free to use the materials in any order. You are encouraged to begin working with Adler and Comenius.
