Notable Romans: Volume 1 (translation)

By Charles François LHomond

Here is the first volume of a well-known collection of simple Latin stories about Roman history. Along with the second volume, Notable Romans (originally published by Charles François L'Homond in Paris in 1779 as De Viribus Illustribus a Romulo ad Augustum ) covers the great figures and events from Romulus to the death of the first emperor. Transforming the public domain Latin text into a new pedagogical device, the presentation here segments the sentences to help students learn how to understand the Latin sequentially in units , interweaving an original, mostly literal translation along the way ( pari passu ). A straight and continuous Latin text is appended to allow students to practice their comprehension of the original language without a translation in sight. Recommended for use with beginners after L'Homond's Epitome of Sacred History or as a refresher in Latin with those who are returning to their study of the language after some time.
