Latinum Institute Website Update

Latinum started as a podcast in 2006, and over the period 2006 to 2008, the Adler Latin Language structured immersion course was developed and produced.

This is a complete Latin course, and…

The Vulgate Psalms in Classical Audio

New at Latinum: the Vulgate Psalms in classical audio are now complete. I have also started working on recording versions of Buchanan's Psalm paraphrases, and Castellio's more classical translation.

Latinum is now on Patreon

The internet keeps mutating, and Classical life online needs to change as well. Latinum is now on Patreon.

I have found a solution to having a stable home for the many hundreds of hours of Latin audio, including the mammoth Adler Audio Course; the crowdfunding platform,…

Schola

As the internet has changed markedly since I first opened Schola on NIng, and again on social-go, after Ning hiked their prices to make continuing unviable, I have decided the time has come to close Schola down - people now have whatsapp groups to chat to their friends in Latin, or use Facebook. There is, I believe, currently no need for a dedicated Latin language 'silo' anymore.

SCHOLA has moved

Schola at NING has been closed and I have moved to the Social-Go network, which is based in the UK.

The new website address for Schola is 

http://schola.network-maker.com/

Latinum items only $1 each

I have also started to publish my own Serial and Oral Latin Course. The first three…
