Association For Latin Teaching

The history of ARLT is to some extent the story of its Summer Schools. Beginning with the 1931 Summer School, people have kept photos of most years' Schools. There are two gaps in the early 1930s, and there were no Summer Schools during the Second World War, but otherwise the albums give a good continuous record.

Those interested in our founder, Dr Rouse, will enjoy seeing him in the earlier years. All available photos have been put on line for these early years. For many of the more recent Summer Schools we have a large number of photos, but in order to respect the privacy of individuals only the group photo is put on line. The original albums can always be inspected at any Summer School.

I hope to add the published reports on individual Summer Schools as I can lay my hand on them. When the album included the text of the Oratio (the Latin speech traditionally delivered by the director on the last evening) or of a specially composed song, that has been included.

Enjoy.
