LT 365 - Roman Letters and Life

(3.00 cr.)

Prerequisite: LT 104  or equivalent. Students read Roman letters that reflect the full spectrum of the ancient Roman experience and represent some of the finest Latin prose, including Cicero's political rants and his love for his daughter; Pliny's descriptions of the destruction of Pompeii and the persecution of the early Christians; Seneca's response to the brutality of the Roman games; and the correspondence of Roman soldiers and their wives stationed on the frosty northern borders of the Empire.
