Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book offers an in-depth exploration of the pronunciation of Latin during the Roman Empire. It draws on a wealth of inscriptions and manuscripts to reveal how the language was actually spoken by the Romans themselves, shedding light on its evolution and providing insights into the historical and cultural context of the time. The author examines the sounds of Latin letters, including vowels, consonants, and diphthongs, tracing their development from earlier Indo-European languages. The book also delves into the intricacies of Latin pronunciation, such as the assibilation of certain consonants and the changes that occurred in the pronunciation of vowels over time. Through a meticulous analysis of linguistic evidence, this book reconstructs the living, spoken Latin of the Roman era, providing a valuable resource for linguists, classicists, and anyone interested in the history and evolution of language. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. …
