Optimizing the translation skills. 

Translation of passages from Latin texts from various genres and periods chosen from the reading list. 

Regular translation assessment 

Written (Translation assessments).

1. Students must prepare the texts, i.e. read and translate them in advance and know the contents.

2. The assessments are intended to controll this. 

3. The assessments have two parts: (1) translation of a part of a Latin text from the reading list into German or English (other languages are also possible), (2) answering a few questions about the content. Both parts must be positive to pass an assessment.

4. Students must pass at least 80% of assessments in order to pass the course.

The individual reading lists to be agreed upon at the beginning of the course (or right now, if you want to start reading in summer. In that case contact me per e-mail).
