Welcome. I am studying Italian and want to learn more about Latin. I also enjoy Dante and Boccaccio. Thank you for your Substack.

Thanks Laura! There will be a lot of Latin. And even some Italian - I've translated some lovely Italian sonnets into English verse, and will post them with explanations at some date.

Looking forward to it.

I'm Catholic and have only been exposed to the vernacular during Mass since I was born way after Vatican II. I attended a traditional Catholic funeral mass earlier this year where the old rite and Latin was used. Hearing the Latin chants were so beautiful -- I wish I knew more than a few words. I'd also like to know some Greek as well.

I’m so excited about this! We homeschooled our kids and they learned (and I along with them) Latin and Ancient Greek. Now that the youngest is almost 20, I could use some brushing up and learning more!

Great! You’ll be getting lots of great Latin and Greek.

Welcome! Love all things Greek and after a recommendation by a Greek it was hard to refuse! Good luck and καλώς όρισες στην παρέα μας!
