Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Language and Character of the Roman People: Translated From the German of Oscar Weise With Additional Notes and References for English Readers
T is hoped that this translation of the suggestive work of Professor Weise may prove useful to Classical Students in Britain and America. We have endeavoured to render it so by adding refer emees to English works on the subjects dealt with in the text and notes, and by a few additions and suggestions, particularly with regard to the ety mology of certain words, for which we are mainly indebted to the full and scholarly work of Professor Walde of Innsbruck. The notes at the end will be found to contain many valuable references to the literature published in Germany in recent treatises dealing with the subject matter of the text. To the Bibliography at the end of the Appendix should be added the valuable work of Mr. Duff, A Literary History of Rome, Fisher Unwin, 1909.
