In a lecture about the value of Classics given at Oxford University in 1947, Dorothy L. Sayers, the British Author, translator and humanist said, The best grounding for an education is the Latin Grammar. I say this not because Latin is traditional and mediaeval , but simply a rudimentary knowledge of Latin cuts down the labour and pains of learning almost any other subject by at least fi fty per cent It is the key to the vocabulary and structure of the Teutonic languages as well as the technical Vocabulary of all the sciences and to the literature of the entire Mediterranean civilisation, together with all its historical documents.'a After retiring from the Australian Public Service the author studied classics for some time at the Australian National University. He also held classes in Latin for several years at The University of the Third Age. Here he developed and used the system contained in this book; namely that information is more easily retained if it is related to information already held. In easy structured steps, this book introduces the reader to grammatical and syntactical structure of the Latin language. It is written for readers who do not have time or otherwise do not wish for a more formal course.

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.
