Save Nuntii Latini, the world’s only weekly Latin language news broadcast!

Save Nuntii Latini, the world’s only weekly Latin language news broadcast!

 

 

 

We demand that the Finnish Broadcasting Company YLE should continue its Latin language news. For over 28 years a small group of dedicated Finnish Latinists has produced a news program which is a testament to the vitality and flexibility of Latin. It is a unique phenomenon that unites language enthusiasts – from experts to amateurs – throughout the world.

 

 

 

The program fosters interest in Latin and the history of Western civilisation. It is an invaluable teaching tool used in schools and universities around the world.

 

 

 

Nuntii Latini must be saved!

 

 

 

 

 

The program has attracted regular attention in various international news media (see for example an article published in the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/09/world/europe/nuntii-latini-news-broadcast-in-finland-unites-fans-of-latin.html).
