28d Relative pronouns and clauses TEXTBOOK

Subordinate clauses (many types)

• Relative clauses -common type
• introduced by relative pronoun
• modifies a noun or pronoun in the main clause (“the antecedent”)

Crines eius curabant duae ancillae, [quarum altera speculum tenebat.]

                                  antecedent       relative pronoun

Phrygia,             [quae               crines neglenter pectebat,]  dominam vexabat.

antecedent            relative pronoun

Relative pronouns | The parts of speech | Grammar | Khan Academy - video

Relative pronouns : qui quae quod  - video

What makes relative clauses tricky? Its form depends on two things

• the gender and number of the antecedent
• the case required by the function of the relative pronoun in its own clause

line 8: Pater tuus amicos quosdam, in quibus sunt senatores 

                             antecedent                                relative pronoun

praclari, ad cenam hodie invitavit. 

Identify the antecedent:

1. Sextus est puer strenuus qui saepe in agris et in horto currit.

2. Davus omnes servos in aream quae est prope villam venire iubet.

3. Aurelia et Cornelia spectabant rusticos qui in agris laborabant.

4. Marcus pede vexabat Corneliam quae donnire volebat.

5. "Lecticarii, quos vobis conduxi, vos domum ferent," inquit Titus.

6. "Hic est arcus," inquit Titus, "quem...."

7. Sextus iam cogitabat de omnibus rebus quas Titus heri narraverat.

8. Boves lapides quadratos in plaustro trahebant ad novum aedificium quod Caesar conficiebat.

9. Sunt multi homines scelesti qui bona civium arripiunt.

We are now about to move into book II!

Latin II is requesting hands-on help with Google Classroom assignments. I planned to have a conference call with them today, during class, in order to offer the guidance they are seeking. JaQuan,  Eli and T'Keisah especially eager for this. The others may be too, just not so vocal about it. 

I am going to have to postpone the conference call in order to go the doctor's office to get a prescription renewal. And go to the pharmacy. Let the Latin II students know that I can reschedule the conference call for tomorrow. 

If any of you are willing to coach Latin II students with Google Classroom assignments, I would really appreciate it. Keep a log identifying the student(s), assignments and time spent.  You can trade in tutoring credits to 1) excuse your own missing work; 2) earn 95-100 for an extra classwork credit or an A quiz credit. 3) boost any grades you would like to improve.

I am not going to give you any more assignments until Friday, when I give you the basic texts for Chapter 28.

So what do you think? Email me at gillmagistra@gmail.com.

I am doing fairly well. I do feel as if I was a lady in a magician's box who actually got sawed in half, with no magic.  Since my leg is better, I think that recovery from surgery is all that is going on. 

I would appreciate any feedback on the substitutes and information that can make your experience better.

Look ahead to an assignment that will be due Friday. Choose* one the following for your project:

Write a descriptive newspaper story, complete with headlines and pictures, about a circus event and the victory or mishap of a charioteer. Give a detailed description of the race that ended in victory or defeat of your charioteer. Give biographical details about the charioteer. What faction does he ride for? Has ridden for? Be creative AND use specific details from the historical texts (As the Romans Did & the EcceRomani readings from the teacher’s manual.) Cite these texts by giving the author and title of the text in parentheses. See also inscriptions about Charioteers in textbook, page 258.

Write an autobiographical story in which you pretend to be an auriga. How did you come to be a charioteer? What faction(s) have you ridden for? Who has financed your faction and what do you think of him?  Have you had favorite horses? If so, what are/were their names? What have your successes been? Close calls. Have you been disabled? By what event? Be creative AND use specific details from the historical texts (As the Romans Did & the EcceRomani readings from the teacher’s manual.) Cite these texts by giving the author and title of the text in parentheses. See also inscriptions about Charioteers in textbook, page 258.

Write an advertisement for a day at the Circus. Who is sponsoring it? Who is paying for it? Who will be the most outstanding charioteers riding for the Whites, Reds, Blues and Greens? Include specific details about each charioteer. Who do you expect to be winners and why? Be creative AND use specific details from the historical texts (As the Romans Did & the Ecce Romani readings from theteacher’s manual.) Cite these texts by giving the author and title of the text in parentheses. See also inscriptions about Charioteers in textbook, page 258.

Here is the link to the supplemental historical texts from the teacher's manual. The text by Sidonius is noteworthy because of its late date, 430, its detailed descriptions, and because Sidonius was or soon would become a bishop. He clearly does not see races as promoting decadence. There are many fascinating facts and perspectives in these sources.

.

*Read!!! all the historical texts before choosing your project. Your use of actual historical sources will be a large factor in your grade. You should read the primary sources carefully and collect details that you think can make whatever project you choose more compelling. What stands out to you?

Assist Latin II students in doing these two assignments. Make sure you understand the Latin II assignments before you step forth to assist:

1) Google Classroom Kings of Rome assignment (due by the end of class). Do the reading, watch the video, answer the questions and submit to Google Classroom by the end of class. Or end of the day. Due October 15

Here are the names of the seven kings of Rome for your notebooks:

Romulus                                       753-716 (37)

Numa Pompilius                          715-673 (40)

Tullus Hostilius                            673-638 (35)

2) Read more about the Monarchy here. Each student should choose one king of Rome to investigate further using the Monarchy (above) text and the textbook reading in Google Classroom (textbook pages 109-111). One student should choose the figure Lucretia. Then each student should write up an one paragraph impersonation of their historical figure. Plan to act out while reading your text tomorrow. Don't double up. Each student should present a different figure.

Latin III Classwork

For Latin III: Find a short summary of each king's reign here.

When you are not assisting Latin II, study the painting by Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli of the story of Lucretia (painting). Notes on painting. Identify the parts of the painting described in the Notes.

Question to discuss among yourselves and answer in your notebooks: Botticelli alludes to the story of Judith in his painting that focuses on Lucretia. Judith murdered, beheaded, the general oppressing her people (the Jews). Lucretia kills herself when raped by an oppressor. Why do you think Botticelli might have included Judith? Does he think both are equally heroines? Does he step back from valorizing Lucretia's suicide by including a heroine who acted in an opposite way? Is he condemning Lucretia's action by including Judith?

This painting was on/for a wedding present for a bride (painted on a large wooden trunk). It was destined to stand in the bedroom of the new bride. The painting has both a personal and political context. The Notes on the painting record that a statue of Judith stood on the main governmental piazza in Florence at the time of Botticelli's painting and was at that time a symbol of Florence, the city where the painting was painted.

To see the statue of Judith by Donatello and learn more about it go here: Piazza della Signoria website.
