Why We Study Latin | Classical Liberal Arts Academy

Why should students today study Latin? In this lesson, we explore the real reasons Latin remains essential—not because it is the language of the Church, but because it was the language of the Roman Empire. From Cicero and Caesar to modern law and science, Latin has shaped the intellectual foundation of Western civilization.

Learn how Latin continues to train the mind, enrich English vocabulary, and provide direct access to the writings of classical authors, philosophers, historians, and poets. Discover why Latin is the language of logic, clarity, and timeless expression in fields like law, philosophy, theology, music, poetry, and more.

This lesson moves beyond traditional or religious arguments and focuses on the enduring, practical value of Latin in a classical education. Whether you're a student, parent, or teacher, you'll come away with a clear understanding of why Latin still matters today.
