What did Greek speakers in the Roman empire do when they wanted to
learn Latin? They used Latin-learning materials containing
authentic, enjoyable vignettes about daily life in the ancient
world - shopping, banking, going to the baths, having fights, being
scolded, making excuses - very much like the dialogues in some of
today's foreign-language textbooks. These stories provide priceless
insight into daily life in the Roman empire, as well as into how
Latin was learned at that period, and they were all written by
Romans in Latin that was designed to be easy for beginners to
understand. Learners also used special beginners' versions of great
Latin authors including Virgil and Cicero, and dictionaries,
grammars, texts in Greek transliteration, etc. All these materials
are now available for the first time to today's students, in a book
designed to complement modern textbooks and enrich the
Latin-learning experience.
