The unadapted selections which make up the majority of the text are taken from Aulus Gellius, Ovid, Nepos, Sallust, and Horace. The prose selections are judiciously chosen and, in the first few chapters, gently adapted to provide students with attest that is authentically Latin and yet not difficult. The selection from Virgil is followed by Book One of Livy's engaging mythical history of Rome's foundation. A vivid description of the city's monuments precedes a prose retelling of the first four books of Virgil's Aeneid, with many of the most famous passages in their original verse form. The second of two volumes in the series Lingua Latina per se illustrata, Roma Aeterna introduces the most celebrated authors of antiquity through the lens of Roman history. It is also the most popular text for teachers, at both the secondary and collegiate levels, who wish to incorporate conversational skills into their classroom practice.
It is the only textbook currently available that gives students the opportunity to learn Latin without resorting to translation, but allows them to think in the language. Students first learn grammar and vocabulary intuitively through extended contextual reading and an innovative system of marginal notes. Hans Oerberg's Lingua Latina per se illustrata is the world's premiere series for learning Latin via the Natural Method.
