“Porta Latina” now available 🎉

F.G. Moore trans­lat­ed 50 of La Fontaine’s French fables into Latin using a rich and ele­gant style.

The lev­el of the Latin makes them most suit­able for upper inter­me­di­ate learn­ers but thanks to the notes and built-in dic­tio­nar­ies they can also be enjoy­able for low­er inter­me­di­ate learn­ers that want a bit of a chal­lenge.

You can find the book in our library or down­load it direct­ly here.

The fable func­tions like a minia­ture play, bring­ing scenes to life with dia­logue and action before con­clud­ing with a moral les­son. Sto­ries often begin mid-scene with char­ac­ters already engaged, or may include pre­lim­i­nary expla­na­tions to ori­ent the read­er.

We hope you enjoy the book! 😊
