Latest on the Grammaticus blog❗

An analysis of Catullus 46 - a delightful 1st century BC Latin poem about the arrival of spring and the excitement of travel.

If your Latin is a bit rusty or you happen to be a Latin learner, below the poem you’ll find a detailed, verse-by-verse word analysis, along with an English translation.

At the very end of the post there are a few links to additional resources on Catullus, and the context of this particular poem.
