Initially, it was spoken in Latium, but with time it dominated the Italian region and eventually spread across the whole Roman Empire. This language was exported across the globe through the combined efforts of the Christian Church and Roman Empire. Later, it emerged as the language of romance in the form of Spanish, French, Romanian, Portuguese, and Italian. From this time until the eighteenth century, classical Latin started to emerge as the language of learning primarily due to its use by philosophers, humanists, and theologians. Latin terminology was also developed systematically for botanical descriptions, such as biological taxonomy. Furthermore, the language has been prominently used in the fields of medicine, zoology, anthropology, and chemistry. It is considered to be the universal language for scientific description and taxonomy, making it a language of learning and science. This book outlines a historical overview of the Latin language as well as its role in science and learning. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.

Book excerpt: "This volume of the World of Science Education gathers contributions from Latin American science education researchers covering a variety of topics that will be of interest to educators and researchers all around the world. The volume provides an overview of research in Latin America, and most of the chapters report findings from studies seldom available for Anglophone readers. They bring new perspectives, thus, to topics such as science teaching and learning; discourse analysis and argumentation in science education; history, philosophy and sociology of science in science teaching; and science education in non-formal settings. As the Latin American academic communities devoted to science education have been thriving for the last four decades, the volume brings an opportunity for researchers from other regions to get acquainted with the developments of their educational research. This will bring contributions to scholarly production in science education as well as to teacher education and teaching proposals to be implemented in the classroom"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science in Latin America has roots that reach back to the information gathering and recording practices of the Maya, Aztec, and Inca civilizations. Spanish and Portuguese conquerors and colonists introduced European scientific practices to the continent, where they hybridized with local traditions to form the beginnings of a truly Latin American science. As countries achieved their independence in the nineteenth century, they turned to science as a vehicle for modernizing education and forwarding "progress." In the twentieth century, science and technology became as omnipresent in Latin America as in the United States and Europe. Yet despite a history that stretches across five centuries, science in Latin America has traditionally been viewed as derivative of and peripheral to Euro-American science. To correct that mistaken view, this book provides the first comprehensive overview of the history of science in Latin America from the sixteenth century to the present. Eleven leading Latin American historians assess the part that science played in Latin American society during the colonial, independence, national, and modern eras, investigating science's role in such areas as natural history, medicine and public health, the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, politics and nation-building, educational reform, and contemporary academic research. The comparative approach of the essays creates a continent-spanning picture of Latin American science that clearly establishes its autonomous history and its right to be studied within a Latin American context.
