wow, this looks like an INCREDIBLE opportunity! having taken a couple graduate level paleography courses (one virtually, one with real handling of manuscripts involved) it always troubled me how high the barrier to entry is for "lay" lovers of medieval Latin. Sharing this!
I will give his serious consideration. I started a business that focuses on the medieval Mary gardens. Learning to read what these texts in Latin could say, would greatly expand on how the monks evangelized using the natural world.
I taught (presented) a latin course to my other kids when I was homeschooling them by Memorial Press. I regret not learning with them. I think the memory work would’ve been a good brain exercise. Memorizing poetry is also good for the brain ‘muscle’ if you will.
I am thinking on how I would schedule this in my year. In the meantime, I enjoy your posts on X and now here. We will stay in touch.
This sounds absolutely amazing. I am unfortunately already signed up for a different Latin course this summer. Will you be offering this again in the future?
Hi Maddie, thanks for your interest in the course. The course will remain available for self-paced learning! In the future, I hope to create more specialized courses.
Glad to see so much interest in deciphering handwritten script! For those who would also like to practice their paleography skills by reading medieval vernacular manuscripts, please check out https://vernacularbibleexplorer.substack.com/.
