Paideia's Living Latin and Living Greek blogs provide interesting, intermediate content in Latin and ancient Greek to help bridge the gap between textbook Latin and classical authors. With the conviction that in language learning an appeal must be made first and foremost to the ears, every post is accompanied by an audio recording. The reader is advised first to make use of our Chromium browser-based dictionary to read each post, then to listen and reread until the audio can be understood without the text.

Imperium is a Latin course for the twenty-first century; unique, highly resourced and written to make fullest use of modern technology.

Imperium is tried, tested and ready for general use, after a trialling period of six years. It consists of three course books, a Grammar and Syntax book and the all-new Imperium Latin Unseens, for advanced users. All of the texts can be ordered through Amazon but are also available as pdf files in either one of our two Site Support Packs, which can be bought by schools. Please browse this website to read more about the materials and their distribution.
