Since 1867, students of Latin and their teachers have turned to
this famous guide for instruction on grammar and usage. The work of
a distinguished professor who taught classics for six decades, it
is celebrated for its lucid and comprehensive treatment.The first
third of the text focuses on etymology, exploring inflections of
the substantive and adjective; adverbs, numerals, and pronouns;
inflection of the verb; and the formation of words. Subsequent
chapters advance to syntax, examining simple and compound
sentences; the arrangement of words and clauses; figures of syntax
and rhetoric; and principal rules of syntax. The text concludes
with an extended section on prosody that discusses and illustrates
the conventions of Latin verse. Helpful indexes feature information
on everyday Roman life, including explanations of the calendar,
weights and measures, money, and names. No Latin reference
collection is complete without this volume, which is equally useful
for classroom and independent study.
