  • The Cambridge Latin Course (CLC) is a series of textbooks published by Cambridge University Press, used to teach Latin to secondary school students. First published in 1970, the series is now in its fifth edition, and has sold over 3.5 million copies. It has reached high status in the UK, being the most successful Latin course in the country and used by 80% of Latin-teaching schools. Using the language theories of Noam Chomsky, the textbook's authors employ a reading method that programmatically stresses inductive language learning as opposed to more traditional deductive, or prescriptive, methods of teaching Latin (i.e. "grammar and translation"). In the belief that learning a language is different from learning "about the language," the CLC stresses reading for comprehension rather than for translation. The books chronicle the adventures of the Pompeiian citizen Quintus Caecilius Iucundus and a Roman senator Gaius Salvius Liberalis in a Latin narrative. The aim of the course is to introduce students to Latin vocabulary, grammar and aspects of Roman civilization and culture. The British edition consists of five books, while the North American edition consists of four units. This is because Unit 3 of the North American edition contains the material from Books III and IV of the British edition. The first half of Unit 4 includes the material from Book V, while the second half consists of selections from original Latin texts.
