Check out one of Roman's craziest poets-- from mourning the death of a sparrow to love poetry dedicated to his fake (married) girlfriend, Catullus was frankly a little nuts. We'll look at his life (not a lot -- he died when he was 30), his girlfriend, and his poetry. A little bit of history and a little bit of Latin! Plus, your teachers may or may not be wearing togas and may or may not throw candy at you. This class will cover the basics of Catullus's life and literature, and dissect a (simplified) version of a Catullus poem in Latin.
