  • To contribute to attaining these goals following in the footsteps of my venerable Predecessors, today, with this Motu Proprio, I establish the Pontifical Academy for Latin, under the Pontifical Council for Culture. It is governed by a President assisted by a Secretary, who are appointed by me, and by an Academic Council.

    - the journal Latinitas, founded in 1953. Latinitas is written completely in Latin and is published four times a year. It deals with cultural topics in the areas of literature, philology, history, the sciences and other disciplines. Particular attention is given to the Diarium Latinum which deals with current issues in a journalistic style;
    - the Certamen Vaticanum, an international Latin poetry and prose competition, also established in 1953. Prizes are awarded to the winners towards the end of the year;
    - the organization of intensive Latin language courses according to the so-called natural method, i.e. the teaching of Latin by speaking Latin;
    - the organization of congressesconferences and debates on Latin culture;
