Vokabeln und Formen sind das A und O des Lateinunterrichts. Der "Thesaurus Latinus" bietet eine breite, solide und in langjahriger Praxis bewahrte Basis fer die Sicherung und Erweiterung der Sprachkompetenzen:- 3350 Vokabeln des Grund- und Aufbauwortschatzes,- 750 weitere Angaben zu speziellen Kasus- und Wortverbindungen,- eigene Eintrage fer berechtigte Stolpersteine wie "se" oder "eius",- Sortierung der Vokabeln nicht nach Wort- oder Sachfeldern, sondern nach Alphabet, dadurch kein umstandliches Hin- und Herblattern,- kritisch eberprefte Bezeichnung der Vokalquantitaten und zahlreiche Angaben zur korrekten Aussprache des Lateinischen,- vollstandige und zugleich ebersichtliche Tabellen zur Formenlehre,- passend zu den neuen Kerncurricula und zu G 8.Der "Thesaurus Latinus" ist eine optimale Erganzung zu allen gangigen Schulausgaben lateinischer Texte: Was dort nicht als Lesevokabel oder in einer Spezialbedeutung angegeben ist, wird man hier finden, und zwar deutlich schneller als in einer systematischen Wortkunde oder in einem Schulwoerterbuch. Die Prasentation der lateinischen Vokabeln und ihrer deutschen Bedeutungen unterliegt keinem akademischen Systemzwang, sondern nimmt immer diejenige Gestalt an, die von Schelern am leichtesten zu verstehen und umzusetzen ist. In fenf vollstandigen Durchgangen von Klasse 8 bis 13 wurde das Manuskript immer wieder von Schelern mehrerer niedersachsischer Gymnasien verbessert, bevor es in den Druck ging. Ein in mancher Hinsicht durchaus unkonventionelles Buch mit einem sehr hohen praktischen Nutzen - von der Anfangslektere bis zum Abitur!
