Cambridge Latin Course | comment |
A series of Latin textbooks published by Cambridge University Press and designed for use in secondary schools. Due to the scarcity of Latin textbooks (driven by the fact that most schools don't teach Latin) it basically became the only one used in the UK for the past forty years, causing most former classics students to remember it. It even got a shout-out in Doctor Who.Someone decided the best way to teach Latin was to write a set of stories in the language most of which link in an arc... sort of. This forms the main part of the course.Not to be confused with Ecce Romani, the equivalent Latin textbook sometimes used in the US, published by Prentice Hall. | |

Downer Ending: Everybody except Quintus and Clemens dies in the Mt. Vesuvius eruption, the end. Happens more than once. Barbillus dies thanks to his crooked astrologer, without getting the chance to make amends with his estranged son Rufus. Then Cogidubnus dies and Salvius seizes power in Britannia, despite Quintus's best efforts, and Dumnorix's Heroic Sacrifice. It's rare to find a language learning course with a per capita body count higher than Game of Thrones, but there you go. | |

Idiot Ball: When Salvius claims Cogidubnus to be a traitor, Agricola becomes enraged and sends out soldiers to imprison Cogidubnus and crush his regime. After they leave, he calms down and asks Salvius for actual evidence of wrongdoing by Cogidubnus. The text draws attention to the fact that he didn't ask these questions before sending out the soldiers. | |

Cambridge Latin Course / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Grumio. Kind of. The obvious answer is that he died in Vesuvius... but the book never clarifies. He just kind of disappears after the first story in Stage 12. One of the workbooks reveals that Grumio survived. He abandoned Caecelius and his family and eventually escaped to Britannia, but ended up fleeing there after finding out one of the people he abandoned, Quintus, was coming to visit. | |

Very Loosely Based on a True Story | |
Cambridge Latin Course / int_e4b69188 | comment |
Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Caecilius was a real moneylender who actually lived in pre-Vesuvius Pompeii, his real life wife was called Metella, their son was called Quintus, and quite a few of the anecdotes in the book are based on the writings that he left behind. But Caecilius actually died in an earthquake 10 years before the destruction of Pompeii. Given a blink-and-you'll-miss-it Shout-Out near the end of Book 1, mentioning the earthquake but changing the actual happening a little - Iulius asks why Caecilius wasn't scared of the enormous cloud and ashes, and he replies, "'iamprīdem terra tremuit. iamprīdem trem�rēs vīll�s et mūr�s dēlēvērunt. sed larēs vīllam meam et familiam meam serv�vērunt." ("a long time ago, the ground shook. A long time ago, the tremors destroyed houses and walls. But the household gods saved my family and my house.") The Vilbia curse is actually real. It was one of the many curses that was tossed into the spring at Aquae Sulis (known to you and me as Bath) and is one of the more famous of them. One theory is that the Vilbia curse is actually a misspelling/miscarving of "fibula", meaning amulet, rather than referring to an actual person. Salvius and his wife, Rufilla, were real people, too. Also real was Lucius Marcius Memor, from the third book. | |
