Sometime in near future I am going to try my hand at the language of the mighty Romans, so these days I am surfing the net for latin materials and resources. The following two resources especially caught my attention:
Artes Latinae Complete Intensive Latin Course, vol. 1 and 2
http://www.multilingualbooks.com/artes.html
This is supposedly the "best" Latin course.It is exorbitantly expensive, so is there anyone on this forum who has used it?
Secondly I found the website of this (mostly) free online Latin teaching programme, it seems they also offer a bachelors and masters degree in Latin.
ACADEMIA THULES
http://www.academiathules.org/
Has anyone used these courses?
Thank you guys in advance.

I just wanted to revive this thread to add another link I came across on YouTube. Here are the details copied from the page containing the lessons:
http://www.youtube.com/user/evan1965
"This is a self-contained Latin course.
Latinae cursus completus.
~
No textbook is required.
Non necesse est librum habere.
~
0001 is the first lesson.
0001 lectio prima est.
I started producing this YouTube Latin-in-Latin Course in August 2010. I have been podcasting in Latin in audio only since 2007, after finding myself frustrated at the lack of Latin audio. For thousands of years, Latin was studied in environments where it was also spoken - only very recently has it become a mute language, where people read it by translating out of it into English or German or whatever, as though it were some kind of secret code, and not a language at all."
I hope you find it useful! :)
