Is it possible to read an original text in Greek or Latin without taking refuge in a dictionary or getting lost in translation? Can we enjoy the pleasure of the ancient languages, savour a Greek or Roman anecdote, enter directly into the plot of a narrative composed 2,000 years ago?
Yes, if we take a gradual approach to the text, following three stages: mastering the vocabulary, getting to know the story in a simple way, and discovering the text in an adapted form, before finally arriving at the original text.
In this volume, you'll discover or rediscover the tradition of Latin animal fables in all their variety: from Antiquity to the Middle Ages, from the bee to the... hedgehog, in prose, in verse, and for morals you won't be able to stop discussing!
Thanks to the AGLAE series, the original text will no longer be a translation exercise, but a work in its own right that we can approach in a proactive way.
Happy reading!
