Reginald Foster, Pope\'s Latinist

[richsc]

During a planning meeting for the Amy High scholarship event, I found out that Father Reginald Foster, the celebrated Latin teacher and Latinist to the Pope, was an American Civil War nut. It occurred to me that he probably isn't aware of Roman reenactors other than the clowns at the Colliseum. In terms of a draw in the US, the last time he showed up in Washington, 400 Latin teachers from all over the US flew in to listen to him. If he hasn't been introduced to real Romans it looks like a great opportunity. Anyone in Rome or around there familiar with Father Foster, and where he teaches (apparently he annoys the Jesuits..some disputes over his classroom style)?

Deb, if you're reading, this may be a great possibility for next year.
