Latin Day at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University
On Tuesday, students had the chance to attend a truly vast number of interesting lectures on all kinds of topics touching on the fields of history, archaeology, linguistics and more. For my part, I would highlight the lecture by archaeologist Pavel Titz, who spoke about the archaeological discoveries beneath Vesuvius and the possibilities of uncovering their secrets using the artificial intelligence so often discussed today, along with other cutting-edge technology.

So Latin Day is not only about a language of scholars long past or long dead — it also covers current, cutting-edge trends in the humanities.
