Area coordinator: S J Bastomsky
Latin is the gateway to some of the world's greatest and most influential literature and an indispensable tool for students of the history and culture of the classical world, late antiquity, and medieval Europe. All original texts are inevitably diminished and distorted by translation. There is no substitute, ultimately, for direct confrontation.
The department offers sequential first-year beginners subjects in Latin upon which minor and major sequences may be built.
In some circumstances it may be possible to accommodate non-beginners within the department's program. Students with VCE Latin should consult with the departmental head prior to enrolment.
Intending honours and postgraduate students must again consult with the departmental head prior to enrolment. Every effort will be made to accommodate them.
