Socio-cultural contexts
Level 7
The suggested socio-cultural contexts include possible historical, sociological, and cultural content and contexts for learning Latin at each of the banded levels or level of the curriculum.
Possible contexts for level 7 might include the ideas and values of Roman civilisation as evidenced in their literary texts, for example:
- historical background (including social and political institutions)
- social mores
- philosophical themes
- literary devices
- authorial intention.
