Here are some of the interesting things we’ve found this week!
- Diary of a Wimpy Kid is getting its own Latin translation, available in the US in September.
- The most recent issue of National Geographic has a piece on Trajan’s Column and includes a pull-out poster. Their online site has a stop-motion animation of how the column was built.
- The Guardian has a piece discussing art and athleticism as part of a promotion for a special exhibit going on at the British Museum.
- The New York Insider at the New York Times did a short piece on a letter printed by the Times in Latin and the editorial response in Latin!
- Finally, the blog Pompeian Connection has a fun article called “On Fools and Fakes” about election inscriptions with, shall we say, less than serious intentions!
