Synopsis
Excerpt from A New and Copious Lexicon of the Latin Language: Compiled Chiefly From the Magnum Totius Latinitatis Lexicon of Facciolati and Forcellini, and the German Works of Scheller and Luenemann
The present work was undertaken in the belief thatan important want existed, and with the hope 'of doing something to supply that want. The Latin dictionaries now in common use, what ever may be said of the manner in which they do what they propose to do, are essentially deficient in the plan on which they are executed. It is somewhat remarkable that, for nearly a century past, so little has been done in England towards the systematic lexicography of the Latin tongue. Not that the researches of the learned have been either shallow or fruitless, but that no one has been, found to turn them to account. This work by no means pretends to make up the defect, but aims chiefly to present the classical student with the results of the investigations of the most eminent lexicographers, which might otherwise have been inaccessible from an inconvenient form or an. Unknown language.
