[XX. LATIN LITERATURE SINCE THE ROMAN EMPIRE.

Illustrative readings from some of the most interesting types of prose and poetry, including the novel, the drama, the epic, the lyric, the epistle, satirical poetry, and the writings of the Church Fathers. Twice a week. PROFESSOR HARRINGTON.]

For the most successful prosecution of even the earlier courses in Latin, ability to read German prose on philological subjects is decidedly advantageous, and for the most advanced courses it is generally necessary. Students, therefore, who look forward to the study of Latin beyond the more elementary courses, and who have on admission to college no acquaintance with German, should devote special attention to that subject in the Freshman year.
