communiqué</span></font></b><b><span lang=FR style='font-weight:bold'><br>
</span></b><span lang=FR>Il est à craindre qu’à la rentrée de 2004,
l’enseignement du grec et du latin disparaisse de la quasi-totalité des
lycées et bientôt des collèges de France.<br>
L’Académie française exprime sa vive désapprobation d’une telle
perspective, ouverte semble-t-il pour des raisons d’économie. Cette
perspective risque en effet de priver les élèves d’un enseignement qui
reste essentiel car il facilite la maîtrise de la langue française, et, loin de
contrarier l’enseignement des langues vivantes, permet au contraire de
mieux appréhender l’identité européenne et les cultures étrangères et
favorise l’ouverture aux disciplines scientifiques.<br>
L’Académie française s’associe à la pétition de nombreux organismes
et associations qui ont déjà pris position en faveur du maintien de
l’enseignement du grec et du latin en France. </span></p>
