Description

You read, you reckon, you rule. Ramp up or revive your language abilities by sampling one of the clearest and simplest of all classic Latin prose writers, Julius Caesar. Though not as famous as the opening of his Commentaries on the Gallic Wars, Book 3 has much to recommend it: it is short, swift, interesting, and easily completed in a part of a semester. This is not just another reproduction of the text and translation; rather it is a special learning device for accelerating Latin comprehension: it guides readers to understand sentences bit by bit as they unfold ("pari passu"). The Acceleration Reader format highlights the smaller units of meaning, making the text a virtual phrasebook as well as a source for reading practice. Every page offers visual, immediate comprehension assistance in "dividing and conquering" the Latin. You will become quite familiar with some of Caesar's basic sentence structures and often-repeated vocabulary (which you will be learning in context rather than from a list). This slice of the Gallic Wars becomes an easy way into all of Caesar's historical writing, and so much more. A straight Latin text of Book 3 is appended to the Acceleration Reader version for those who wish to test their understanding of the Latin directly and in a more traditional format of blocks of texts. The intended audience for this Acceleration Reader is intermediate Latin students, but all levels can profit from it. Those who have studied the language long ago but not looked at it recently may find here an easy and appealing way to revive their old abilities and improve them. Teachers and students, you will save much time and effort with this inexpensive textbook. You will go further faster. Your slog will become a march. A paperback version is available from late March 2024.
