Abstract:

This paper aimes to support that both discussion of Latin pedagogy and Latin instruction itself take place in Latin. After having made a brief introductory analysis of how and why research on Second Language Acquisition can apply to Latin pedagogy, the paper suggests a Latin catalogue of some of the most important key terms and notions that are currently being utilized by SLA researchers and teachers, as a background for further discussion on the issue.

Compendium:

Multi sunt linguae Latinae praeceptores qui animum atque industriam suam ad eas rationes docendi iamdudum converterunt quae praeter solam cognitionem linguae, uberiores fructus ferre affectant cum in usu ac familiaritate tum in gaudio ac iucunditate. Hos vero praeceptores hic ad alia beneficia compellimus, ad ea scilicet quae affluere possunt si utraque disputatio de arte docendi ac ipsa linguae institutio veste Latina induuntur atque Latine exiguntur. Cuis rei fundamenta iacere voluimus, aliquibus notionibus atque rationibus Latino sermoni redditis.
