Catullus

 * Welcome aboard! Familiarise yourself with the demands of the project by going to: The Poetry of Gaius Valerius Catullus and having a look at the "mission statement" and information.


 * Also, here are some model examples of fine comprehensive work.


 * Poem 7
 * Poem 51


 * If you look around the poems that are generally either half or three quarters  then those will be the ones with needed vocab help.


 * Alternatively you might like to add extra literary notes to "Connotations of th Text" section of each. If you know how to scan you can do that too. Click here for an example of that.


 * Overall there are lots of poems to be done as well as some Appendices and the Preface.


 * There is a standard template here on my user page.

Scansion

 * No, I don't think we need it for every poem. Most scansion is unremarkable, but that that is exceptionally slow or fast or elided or whatever it may be, can certainly be commented on, along with the effect it makes. As it is, Poem 94 is the only one with a scansion note so far. What may come up, is when we tackle the mammoth poems of 60-64 which are at least 100 lines long, so I'm sure there will be tonnes to scan there. For example, Poem 64 is 405 lines long!!

 * If you look to the top of most poems that are marked as completed, such as 2, 3, 5, 7 etc, look above the text itself. That's the way I'd like the thing formatted, with a link to the Appendix. Thanks, I am quite proud of that Appendix. :D So yeah, if you went ahead and formatted that that would be great.
