Widely recognized as the standard work in its field, this volume
traces in systematic form the history of the development of the
sounds and forms of the Portuguese language from its Latin
beginnings. Based upon years of research and painstaking
consideration of all the significant publications on the subject,
it clarifies a great deal that has been obscure in the transition
from Latin to Old Portuguese, to modern Portuguese, and to
Brazilian Portuguese. It also helps resolve many of the complex
problems of Spanish and general Romance philology. For the second
edition of From Latin to Portuguese, the author, Edwin B. Williams,
has made substantial additions and revisions, has brought the
bibliography up to date, and has utilized the latest research to
reevaluate and confirm his original conclusions. In the light of
these adjustments and the new material made available by Williams,
this extraordinary synthesis must be classified as an indispensable
handbook for the student and scholar working in the areas of
Portuguese, Hispanic, and Romance philology.
