Bradley's Arnold Latin Prose Composition (Latin language)

Now in a newly revised edition, Bradley's Arnold Latin Prose Composition is a classic and comprehensive review of Latin grammar and Latin prose composition with exercises to demonstrate key grammatical principles. The updated version's features include improved terminology and grammatical explanations, graduated lessons from simple to complex, supplemental continuous prose passages for self-testing, English-to-Latin vocabulary, a Latin index and a subject index, and much more. Though not a consumable workbook, Bradley's Arnold Latin Prose Composition is an ideal, user-friendly text for intermediate to advanced Latin students, whether studying the language in a college course or learning it on their own. Highly recommended.

Bradley's Arnold Latin prose compostion reaches for an audience it rarely receives nowadays. The book is so useful and completely solid, especially for Latin teachers who wish to improve their ability to communicate how it is that certain sentiments can be expressed in Latin. In addition to succinct review of concepts that start at a rather basic level, exercises are included. Towards the end of the book, whole excercises in prose that most closely resembles a Caesarian idiom, are included for practice. This book is the best I know of for teachers who wish to be able to teach certain Latin language concepts. Even if one chooses not to adopt certain approaches for teaching, a good deal of the summary and reinstruction remains unsurpassed and invaluable for those who wish to put a polish on already developed Latin skills. This book serves as an excellent shelf mate to Allen and Greenough's New Latin Grammar.

Every wannabe Latin scholar's comprehensive guide to correct and 'Roman' prose writing. Everything is covered from the most elementary language structure to complex oratio oblique constructions. It has a high level of assumed knowledge in regards to noun, verb adjective and adverb forms. If writing Latin is what makes you 'tic, taec toc' then this is the holy scripture itself.
