Victor Sera, a 12th grade student at the “Tiberiu Popoviciu” High School in Cluj-Napoca won the first prize at the International Olympiad of Latin Language and Literature – Certamen Horatianum, the Romanian Ministry of Education announced, according to Romania-Insider.com.
The prize was accompanied by a laudatory motivation of the evaluation committee: “The message of Horatius’ text is expressed clearly, through a cursive translation, faithful to the original text. The literary commentary, built in a precise and original manner rich in appropriate stylistic interpretations, develops the proposed theme in a pertinent, erudite and exhaustive way.”
Following the result at this year’s edition, Romania strengthened its third position in the international ranking of prizes awarded at this competition.
