Corruptae Latinitatis Index, or a Collection of Barbarous Words and Phrases: Which Are Found in the Works of the Most Celebrated Modern Writers in ... Taken From the Classics, Would Have Clea - Softcover
Synopsis
This book presents a valuable collection of over 400 pseudo-Latin terms and phrases found in the works of celebrated modern Latin authors. During and after Rome's decline, many foreign words, neologisms, and corrupt phrases found their way into Latin, and the author painstakingly lists these terms, attributing their use to the era in which they first appeared. This resource is an excellent companion for classicists, Latin scholars, and writers in Latin, helping them avoid these spurious terms without sacrificing eloquent expression. By referencing the original Latin in which the terms appear, the author provides a fantastic insight into the evolution of Latin and the often-arbitrary variations that have occurred from the language’s classical origins.
