Carfagni, Roberto (2022). Aliud est latine, aliud grammatice scire: lo studio della lingua e lo studio della grammatica. Ars docendi, 12, settembre 2022.
Roberto Carfagni, one of the best-known advocates of the Ørberg method and a renowned Latin teacher, attempts to prove in his reflections how central active engagement with the Latin language is to its learning. Learning grammar is also made easier when theoretical knowledge is introduced through practical examples and concrete explanations and accompanied by a broader context. However, Carfagni repeatedly points out the necessary additions to this ‘natural language learning method’ so that the central goals of Latin teaching can still be achieved today.
