The final exam will be partly oral and partly written. Students will be requested to read and translate orally one or more excerpts from the Latin texts enlisted in the course catalogue. The oral exam aims to test deep knowledge of the Latin language in its various components (phonetics, morphology, syntax, prosody, and metrics). Students will also be requested to write a prosodic and metric analysis of a hexameter chosen among the texts previously translated.
