Dr. Andrew Snyder with Hannah Gilmore

## In this episode

Hannah Gilmore opens Mythic Mind Introductory Latin with the course vision and the first grammar lesson: inflection, nouns, and the nominative subject. A “dead” language turns out to be a living path into the West’s books and prayers.

Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) frames the episode and shares Hannah’s kickoff so the fellowship can join a classically oriented season of study alongside Augustine, Paradise Lost, and philosophy courses already underway.
