Topics in Philosophical and Scientific Latin. Work in this course explores Latin literature in the field of "natural history," from its origins in Greek philosophy through the medieval period to the flowering of modern science, and will introduce students to “classic” texts in the history of Science, in their original language. Students will develop their Latin skills and increase their mastery of the language through the basic tools of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Readings will include elements of post-classical Latin that may be called “medieval,” and to show the wide range of styles that “medieval” Latin attained, especially in technical or didactic writings. Prerequisite: LATN 212 or instructor permission.
