Hans Ørberg's textbook for learning Latin through the Natural Method offers an intuitive approach to grammar and vocabulary, emphasizing contextual reading and innovative marginal notes. It uniquely allows students to learn Latin without translation, fostering the ability to think directly in the language. This resource is highly favored by secondary and collegiate teachers aiming to integrate conversational skills into their lessons. Part I, Familia Romana, consists of thirty-five chapters that depict the life of a Roman family in the 2nd century A.D. It culminates with readings from classical poets and Donatus' Ars Grammatica, which served as the standard Latin school text for a millennium. Each chapter features two or three lessons followed by a grammar section, Grammatica Latina, and three exercises, or Pensa. Ørberg's impeccable Latinity, humorous storytelling, and Peer Lauritzen's illustrations contribute to the work's classic status. The book also includes a table of inflections, a Roman calendar, and a vocabulary index. Key features include a comprehensive treatment of Latin grammar, a vocabulary of nearly 1,800 words reinforced through creative repetition, and a complete line of ancillary volumes and exercises available in print and online. Many seasoned teachers find their own reading skills enhanced through the use of this textbook.
