Any opinions on Ramsay's Loeb translation for #Sallust #Catiline? Trying to decide on text for upper level Latin in fall. Want Ss to read >
— Dr. Alexis M. Christensen (@AM_Christensen) March 26, 2017
all of Sallust, but don't have time to do all with Cicero Cat. I. Class is mixed 3-4th year & need to build Latin, but also cultural content
— Dr. Alexis M. Christensen (@AM_Christensen) March 26, 2017
Loeb seems like possible option to get Latin in front of Ss for whole of text, and can then focus on some passages from Sallust
— Dr. Alexis M. Christensen (@AM_Christensen) March 26, 2017
Thx Bill. Loeb has "crucified" in the translation, which is more than what ἀνασταυρῶσαι means, & 1 doesn't expect the Roman punishment here. https://t.co/ntvkUVTuWN
