[ autoLogos ]

"The tools and those pale men and nations that are the slaves of tools will no doubt disappear in time;

such arts have probably been invented and lost many times before.

But there is a lusty core in the human animal that survives all revolutions; and when the conflagration is past,

I seem to see the young hunters with their dogs, camping among the ruins."

Salve,

I noticed you found our Cicero YahooGroup (Davidson Classics). Actually we started it to do some Cicero before taking a class some fall semester ago. Alas, all of us have graduated and no longer post anything there :). But I am still interested in making some sort of forum for Latin enthusiasts... unless you know of one already! Let me know :).

Cura ut valeas,

Iohannes

Salve Iohannes!

Pleased to hear from you. My main Latin study connection is http://www.quasillum.com/study/latinstudy.php. You'll find links to the Latinstudy Digest and study groups and information there.
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/latin/ and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Apuleius/ are groups in which I have posted a lot of useful links. I've started three specialist groups like http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/tacitusannals/ .
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TabernaRomana/ is a somewhat active group related to Hans Orberg's 'Lingua Latina'.

Some of these groups have to some extent been used as forums but a real Latin forum sounds like a very good idea. There have been some in the past but none seem to have survived. My e-mail :
nekkid99@yahoo.com.
Vale, Lorcan
