    Why Learn Latin Today?

    In Episode 0, Marina and Marcus introduce themselves. They come from two very different worlds — Marina is a historian and teacher of Latin in Zagreb, and Marcus is a Florentine scholar living in sixteenth-century Basel, right in the heart of the printing revolution. Together they'll be exploring the long life of Latin across the centuries: how it was actually used, by whom, and why it still matters.This first episode is rather personal. We talk about how Marina fell in love with Latin (it wasn't love at first sight), discover what the Vatican calls a mobile phone, and we ask the big question: why learn Latin today?
