They +offer a helpful contribution to the solution of the ever-present and +vexing problem which teachers of Latin in secondary schools are meeting: +How can we make this Latin <i>interesting</i> to our pupils? How can we +compete with departments which more easily hold the pupils’ interest +because their subject matter touches more nearly the various phases of +modern life? It is, indeed, true that any subject well taught by a live +teacher will interest pupils. But, even where this condition is +realized, the need is being felt more and more of something which will +vary the deadly monotony incident to the learning of the technique of a +language, especially one which makes its appeal largely to the eye alone +through the medium of the printed page.</p> + +<p>It is one of the most encouraging features of our present-day +classical work that teachers more and more are inventing ways of +vitalizing their teaching without weakening it. For this must always be +borne in mind: that we are not seeking to gain mere <i>interest</i>. +What we +<span class = "pagenum">x</span> +want is interest in <i>Latin</i>. We want our students to be so +interested that they will cheerfully endure all the hardships incident +to this study because they have discovered that it is worth while in +itself, because it has come to mean something to them, because it +actually touches their own lives.</p> + +<p>If the reader will scan the department of “Current Events” in the +present volume of the <i>Classical Journal</i>, he will find many +indications of this new spirit among classical teachers in the schools. +Thus we find a Latin club in a high school in Columbus, Ohio, giving, +among other activities, an exhibition of a Roman <i>triclinium</i>, in +which the whole scene was enacted as nearly as possible in the Roman +fashion, accompanied by Latin songs. And thus the pupils were made to +realize that the Roman’s life was not entirely one of warfare, but that +he ate, drank, and acted as a real human being. In Kansas, +a classical club was recently organized by the students of Hiawatha +Academy, whose program consists of talks on classical subjects and Latin +songs, followed by a social hour enlivened by Latin games. In Lincoln, +Nebraska, a live Latin club has originated in an exceptionally +strong Cæsar class. They call themselves the <i>Legio Decima</i>, +because they scorn “anything that has to do with cavalry”! Their program +abounds in live topics connected with the Latin work and unique +representations of Roman life.</p> + +<p>But the greatest success seems to have been gained through the +dramatic presentation of matter pertinent to the students’ work. We read +of a spirited entertainment by the students of a Seattle high school, in +which were given scenes from the “Menaechmi” of Plautus, together +<span class = "pagenum">xi</span> +with the singing of several odes of Horace which had been set to +appropriate music. Others have attempted a play of Terence. Scores of +schools have presented dramatized scenes from Vergil; and we read of a +school in Georgia where Horace’s ninth satire, itself a complete little +drama as it stands, was played by the students. In the same school +portions of Cæsar were dramatized and acted; and a dramatization based +on the conspiracy of Catiline was recently sent to me from a school in +Indiana.</p> + +<p>From all these and many other points it is reported that great +interest is aroused among the students, primarily in the fact and +production of the play itself, but resulting also in a permanent +interest in the more serious and regular work of the Latin class. The +author of the plays presented in this book has herself already reaped +rich rewards of her work in the continued zeal of her students for their +Latin study after they have passed on to college. She writes that the +boy who played “Cicero” in the wedding last year is now a freshman in an +eastern college, and still finds Latin the work of his greatest interest +and success; and the girl who was “Tullia” in the play is also a +freshman in college, with zeal and courage enough to attempt the +composition of Latin hymns.</p> + +<p>The difficulty heretofore felt by teachers and their Latin clubs has +been in finding appropriate plays in Latin simple enough for their +pupils to master without undue hardship, and appealing strongly in their +subject matter to the young student; and I feel sure that in these two +plays, “A Roman School” and “A Roman +<span class = "pagenum">xii</span> +Wedding,” will be found just the material which has been sought. Aside +from the awakened interest of the student and the vivid impression which +his mind will receive of these two important phases of Roman life, who +can estimate the actual gain in the acquisition of the Latin language +itself, which will come not alone to those students who are fortunate +enough to take part in these plays, but to those as well who listen to +the rehearsals and to the final production?</p> + +<p>I therefore most cordially commend these plays to all teachers of +Latin, and urge that they be presented in the schools each year wherever +possible.</p> + +<p class = "right">FRANK JUSTUS MILLER</p> + +<p><span class = "smallcaps smaller">The University of +Chicago</span></p> + + +<a name = "school" id = "school"> </a> + +<hr class = "small"> +<hr class = "mid"> +<hr class = "small"> + +<div class = "page"> + +<span class = "pagenum">1</span> +<h2>A ROMAN SCHOOL</h2> + +<h4>90 B.C.</h4> + +</div> + +<hr class = "small"> +<hr class = "mid"> +<hr class = "small"> + + +<span class = "pagenum">2</span> + +<table class = "personae" summary = "cast of characters"> +<tr> +<td colspan = "2"> +<h5>DRĀMATIS PERSŌNAE</h5> +</td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td>Magister<br> +Servī<br> +Paedagōgus</td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td>Aulus Licinius Archiās<br> +Pūblius Licinius Crassus</td> +<td class = "bracket"> +<i>iūdicēs</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td colspan = "2"> +Gāius Licinius Crassus, <i>adulēscēns</i></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td> <br> +<i>Discipulī</i></td> +<td></td> +</tr> +<tr> +<td class = "inset" colspan = "2"> +Mārcus Tullius Cicerō<br> +Quīntus Tullius Cicerō<br> +Lūcius Sergius Catilīna<br> +Mārcus Antōnius<br> +Gāius Iūlius Caesar<br> +Appius Claudius Caecus<br> +Gnaeus Pompēius<br> +Pūblius Clōdius Pulcher<br> +Mārcus Iūnius Brūtus<br> +Quīntus Hortēnsius Hortalus<br> +Lūcius Licinius Lūcullus<br> +Gāius Claudius Mārcellus<br> +Mārcus Claudius Mārcellus +</td> +</tr> +</table> + + +<span class = "pagenum">3</span> +<h3>A ROMAN SCHOOL</h3> + + +<p class = "scenedesc"> +When the curtain is drawn, plain wooden benches are seen arranged in +order on the stage.

It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/31894-h/images/bracket3.gif b/31894-h/images/bracket3.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..9d3c0d0 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/images/bracket3.gif diff --git a/31894-h/images/dots.gif b/31894-h/images/dots.gif Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..b9102e4 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/images/dots.gif diff --git a/31894-h/images/music.png b/31894-h/images/music.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..a226bb0 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/images/music.png diff --git a/31894-h/images/pic16.png b/31894-h/images/pic16.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..01aaeb4 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/images/pic16.png diff --git a/31894-h/images/pic37.png b/31894-h/images/pic37.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..5351432 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/images/pic37.png diff --git a/31894-h/music/weddingsong.ly b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.ly new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b7d4b97 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.ly @@ -0,0 +1,49 @@ +\version "2.10.25" +\include "english.ly" + + +melody = \relative ef' +<< + { + \tempo 4=90 + \autoBeamOff + \once \override Score.MetronomeMark #'transparent = ##t + \clef treble + \key af \major + \time 2/4 + ef8. c'16 c8 bf | bf8. af16 af8 af | af8. g16 fs8 g | df'4 df | + df,16 ef g bf bf8 df | c4 bf | \acciaccatura c8 bf8 af f af | ef2 | + \acciaccatura ef8 c8. ef16 af8 c | bf8. af16 af8 af | + \acciaccatura bf af8. g16 fs8 g | df2 | + df16 ef g bf bf8 df | c8. bf16 bf8 c | + bf8 \melisma af \melismaEnd g af | ef'4 ef | + c,8. ef16 af8 c | df8. c16 c8 c | c8. bf16 a8 bf | f'4 f | + ef8 ef16 ef c8 af | g4 f | + f'4 df8 bf | af4( g4) | df'4 df8 c8 | af4. af8 } + + \addlyrics + { + Hes -- pe -- re, qui cæ -- lo fer -- tur cru -- de -- li -- or + ig -- nis? + Qui na -- tam pos -- sis com -- plex -- u avel -- le -- re + ma -- tris, + Complex -- u ma -- tris re -- ti -- nen -- tem avel -- le -- re + na -- tam + Et iu -- ve -- ni ar -- den -- ti cas -- tam do -- na __ re + pu -- el -- lam. + Quid fa -- ci -- unt hos -- tes cap -- ta cru -- de -- li -- us ur -- be? + Hy -- men O Hy -- me -- næ -- e, + Hy -- men ad -- es O Hy -- me -- næ -- e. + } + >> + \score { + \new Staff \melody + \layout { + \context { + \Score + \remove Bar_number_engraver + } } + \midi { + \context { \Score %{tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 60 4)%} } + } +} diff --git a/31894-h/music/weddingsong.midi b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.midi Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..e4e344f --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.midi diff --git a/31894-h/music/weddingsong.pdf b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.pdf Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..6f38915 --- /dev/null +++ b/31894-h/music/weddingsong.pdf |
