About the textbook: Hans Ørberg’s Lingua Latina per se illustrate (ISBN 978-1-58510-423-9) is the world’s premiere textbook for learning Latin via the Natural Method. Students first learn grammar and vocabulary intuitively through extended contextual reading and an innovative system of marginal notes.  It is the only textbook currently available that gives students the opportunity to learn Latin without resorting to translation, but allows them to think in the language.  It is also the most popular text for teachers, at both the secondary and collegiate levels, who wish to incorporate conversational skills into their classroom practice.
