Abstract
Aims and Objectives
The purpose of this panel is to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss the state of the art and the
challenges faced in the teaching of Late Latin/Vulgar Latin/Christian Latin/Early Medieval Latin as an L2,
taking into consideration diachronic, diastratic and diatopic factors. This will encompass:
Strand A) Historical perspectives, from the Late Antiquity onwards;
Strand B) Contemporary contexts, in a variety of social settings, such as: formal and informal education,
different countries, varying ages and social groups.
The objective is to showcase original research and innovative practice to support and promote:
Strand A) A deeper knowledge of how Latin was taught in the Late Antiquities and Early Middle Ages;
Strand B) A better understanding of the pedagogical practices used to convey Late/Early Medieval Latin
(Language and Literature) today and how these can be improved.
