Intermediate Latin
There will be one three-hour examination. Candidates will be expected to be familiar with An Anthology of Latin Prose, ed. D.A Russell (OUP 1990), nos. 7, 12, 22, 23, 34, 52, 63, from which a selection of passages will be set for translation, in addition to a passage for unseen translation.
Candidates will also be expected to translate from:
(i) Cicero, Pro Caelio [ed. OCT];
(ii) Pliny, Letters I. 6, 9, 13, 19; VII. 21, 24, 26, 29; VIII. 16, 17; IX. 6, 12, 15, 27, 33, 39; X. 31, 32, 96, 97 [ed. M.B. Fisher and M.R. Griffin, CUP 1973];
The Graduate Studies Committee may agree to an alternative choice of texts for translation.
Not all courses and papers are available in every year. The authoritative information about courses and papers can be found in the University's Examination Decrees and Regulations, published with changes each October; the version published in the October a student begins a course will be authoritative for the examinations which that student takes at the end of the course.
