The course Incipit, which began on 11 March 2019, is a basic course of Classic Latin language and culture created to provide basic training to those who wish to access studies of philology, as well as the basic elements for Latin History, Literature and Language to all those who are not interested in Philology but nevertheless want to expand their humanistic education. This course is especially targeted to the last courses of middle education or the first years of university studies.
