It adopts the authors' approach of their \u003cem\u003eEcce Romani\u003c\/em\u003e series. To enable students to read Latin reasonably quickly, generous assistance is given with vocabulary and explanatory notes placed next to the Latin text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe meaning of difficult sentences and phrases is usually explained by literal translation rather than complex grammatical explanation, though reference is frequently made to the authors' modern grammar book \u003cem\u003eThe Latin Language\u003c\/em\u003e.
