Book excerpt: A lively exploration of the joys of a not-so-dead language From the acclaimed novelist and Oxford professor Nicola Gardini, a personal and passionate look at the Latin language: its history, its authors, its essential role in education, and its enduring impact on modern life—whether we call it “dead” or not. What use is Latin? It’s a question we’re often asked by those who see the language of Cicero as no more than a cumbersome heap of ruins, something to remove from the curriculum. In this sustained meditation, Gardini gives us his sincere and brilliant reply: Latin is, quite simply, the means of expression that made us—and continues to make us—who we are. In Latin, the rigorous and inventive thinker Lucretius examined the nature of our world; the poet Propertius told of love and emotion in a dizzying variety of registers; Caesar affirmed man’s capacity to shape reality through reason; Virgil composed the Aeneid, without which we’d see all of Western history in a different light. In Long Live Latin, Gardini shares his deep love for the language—enriched by his tireless intellectual curiosity—and warmly encourages us to engage with a civilization that has never ceased to exist, because it’s here with us now, whether we know it or not. Thanks to his careful guidance, even without a single lick of Latin grammar readers can discover how this language is still capable of restoring our sense of identity, with a power that only useless things can miraculously express.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed for American students who are in middle schools, high schools, colleges, universities, law schools, medical schools, and so on. Some may argue that learning to speak Latin could help reinforce your knowledge of root words to assist in learning other languages. There may be some truth to this view as many languages utilize derivatives of Latin words in their spellings and meanings. By having prior knowledge of how the root words are created, you can theoretically have a deeper understanding of the language you are studying. Whether you are a scholar, curious, or youre bored at home, learning a new language can enlighten you about the culture from which it came. Understanding Latin could open deeper understanding into your primary language. Sentence structure could begin to make more sense, and you could use your prowess of speaking Latin at parties to become the center of attention.
