Latin Alive Playlets
We have reintroduced Latin playlets written by Dr. Albert Warsley’s contemporary, Dr. Lillian Lawler. Well versed in Roman studies, Dr. Lawler received her bachelor’s degree in 1919 from the University of Pittsburgh. She obtained her M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Iowa in 1921 and 1925, and then instructed classes in classics and art history there from 1923 to 1925. After a year of further study at the American Academy in Rome, she was an assistant professor of classics at the University of Kansas, Lawrence, from 1926 to 1929. Between the years 1928 to 1935, she was also an Archeological Institute of America travelling lecturer. The largest portion of Dr. Lawler’s career took place in New York at Hunter College. She began instructing there in 1929 and given the rank of full professor in 1955, followed by professor emeritus status in 1959.
We are offering her playlets for purchase on six different CD’s. Each CD contains 4 playlets for the price of $5 a CD. Our hope is to not only help bring Latin Alive again to the classroom, but to do so in a fun and educational way. To help with the student’s understanding of the playlets, we are including two copies of each play, one with footnotes and one without.
Please mark which CD’s you wish to buy below and include your order on the attached Order Form. We hope you enjoy these as much as we have enjoyed bringing them to you!
