This is the most detailed and comprehensive study to date of early
Latin language, literary and non-literary, featuring twenty-nine
chapters by an international team of scholars. 'Early Latin' is
interpreted liberally as extending from the period of early
inscriptions through to the first quarter of the first century BC.
Classical Latin features significantly in the volume, although in a
restricted sense. In the classical period there were writers who
imitated the Latin of an earlier age, and there were also
interpreters of early Latin. Later authors and views on early Latin
language are also examined as some of these are relevant to the
establishment of the text of earlier writers. A major aim of the
book is to define linguistic features of different literary genres,
and to address problems such as the limits of periodisation and the
definition of the very concept of 'early Latin'.
