Observations and context
Sapho's poetry gave birth to a long list of women who, until the 4th century AD, were the first to use their voices in different styles, in Greek as well as in Latin. From Roman times, mentioning only the poets of whom minimum testimony remains, we find Sulpicia "the elegiac poetess", Melinno, Herennia Procula, Claudia Trophime, Sulpicia "the satirist", Julia Balbilla, Caecilia Trebulla, Damo, Terentia, Theosebia and Aconia Fabia Paulina.
The four syntax activities regarding the Elegies 14, 16, 17 and 18 can be worked in an independent way or together in a session consisting of four interactive groups aiming to review the syntax. The sequencing for a 55-minute class would be the following:
5’. Explaining the session.
40’. Each activity will take 10 minutes, the fragment will be read in Latin and in Spanish and students will answer the questions.
10’. Any syntactic questions which could have arisen will be asked to the whole group and suggestions for improvement of the activities can be made.
The activity is aimed at students of Latin in 4th of ESO, which is the subject where the block of syntax is implemented.
