Embracing the whole two-thousand-year corpus of Latin poetry, this book seeks to stimulate interest in the neglected art of reading aloud. It establishes a practical working pronunciation for Classical, Medieval and Renaissance Latin by means of a detailed analysis of the essential known facts, and it develops and explains a clear and practical system of phonetic notation, based upon the International Phonetic Alphabet. A substantial number of poems and extracts from all periods is offered for practice. Issues relevant to both quantitative and rhythmical prosody are fully discussed and translation notes are supplied to aid the student. Each poem is fully transcribed into phonetics and is accompanied by an English verse translation, whose main purpose is to reveal something of the literary quality of the verse. Two accompanying CDs aid pronunciation by giving the practice words found in the pronunciation sections and offering a complete reading of the poems.

Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... RHYTHMICAL. ELEMENTS Syllables Rhythm as involved in poetry has been considered in the foregoing pages along general lines, but from this point onward the subject will be restricted to the single field of Latin. It is now in order to develop somewhat more fully a phase of the subject already touched upon, namely, the part played by syllables. The existence of syllables rests upon a natural basis. The voice can not convey a succession of thoughts except by being varied into different sounds, and these can not be sufficiently numerous and distinguishable for our needs except by the introduction of such as break or hinder the current of breath, producing a division into syllables. The poet's recognition and selection of syllables for the purposes of versification, far from being a highly artificial process, is mainly subconscious. His standard and criterion are not the dictionary, nor words sounded separately, but audible, fluent speech. And so it not infrequently happens that when one word is merged into another, the result is a syllable that embraces parts of two words. To read Latin poetry well, one must bring out distinctly the sound properties of the syllables, some of these properties being inherent in the separate syllables, some resulting from the effect one syllable has upon another. 6What, in detail, are these properties? A syllable comprises a vowel alone, a diphthong alone, or either in close union with one or more consonants. Latin vowels, according to the ancients, fell into three classes: (1) those of brief duration and therefore considered short, (2) those more extended in time and therefore considered long, and (3) those occurring in closely knit pairs, called diphthongs, the same being long. Consonants seemed to affect the...

Excerpt from The Quantitative Reading of Latin Poetry This pamphlet is published in accordance with a plan formed several years ago. Few pupils learn to read Latin poetry with ease and enjoyment. What ought to be a pleasure seldom rises above the dreary routine of a mechanical task. The writer feels justified by his own experience in asserting that something more than this much more in fact - is easily within the reach of all who will faithfully carry out the simple precepts laid down in the following pages. It is this conviction which has led to the publication of this little book. The rules for quantity, along with nearly all the definitions of the leading terms of metre and prosody, have designedly been omitted. These are easily accessi ble in any Latin grammar.
