Book Description
The title of this series of Latin books is Ecce Romani, which means "Look! The Romans!" The books in the series will present the Romans to you as you learn the Latin language that they spoke. At first you will meet the members of a Roman family; Latin is the language they use to communicate among themselves. As you continue reading you will meet mythological and historical characters that meant much to the Romans and remain part of our cultural heritage today. You will be introduced to a vast and colorful world of ancient Mediterranean and European civilizations that included peoples who spoke many different languages, and you will meet people of many different cultures and social levels, ranging from slaves to emperors. You will read passages from many ancient Roman writers and thus come into direct communication with the ancient Romans themselves. - Introduction.

Book Description
This anthology is designed to meet the needs of Latin students today, acknowledging present constraints on their study-time. It adopts the authors' approach of their "Ecce Romani" series. To enable students to read Latin reasonably quickly, generous assistance is given with vocabulary and explanatory notes placed next to the Latin text. The 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 "The Latin Language". An 'overview' technique helps students unravel complex sentences. Extracts are drawn from Cicero's speeches, letters and philosophical writings, thus illustrating his mastery of styles. They are also chosen to provide an interesting contemporary view of a highly significant phase of Roman history, and linked by simple historical background notes. 'Points for Discussion' highlight stylistic features, showing how Cicero's thinking on moral and social issues remains relevant to modern times.
