Item description from seller

Oxford & New York: Oxford University Press, 2013. HARDCOVER edition. NEW and unread in near PERFECT condition. The cover has only a tiny hint of very mild shelfwear (like you sometimes find in any new book store). NO chips, tears, creases or fading. We have only this one copy, but it is available now and ready to ship today from Henderson, Nevada. Square and tight. Sharp corners. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a library discard. NOT a remainder. Pages are clean and unmarked. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. Bound in the original green, blue and white boards, lettered in white and bluer. From the publisher: "The advent of the new discipline of Formal Semantics around forty years ago has resulted in a vast expansion in our knowledge and theoretical understanding of grammatical meaning. Semantics for Latin collects together this new material, applies it to Latin, and makes the results accessible to a Classical audience. The issues confronted by Formal Semantics are mostly those that comprise the core subject matter of Latin grammar. Formal Semantics, however, is not just a new way of doing an old subject: the richness and explanatory depth of its analyses, together with their striking elegance and precision, go far beyond anything that was achieved by the rather vague notional semantics used in our classroom textbooks and in the standard German reference grammars. Thus, apart from its intrinsic interest, the material in this book will be of real practical value to students and teachers of Latin and, more generally, to scholars engaged in any discussion of Latin textual meaning.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. New condition/No dust jacket, as issued. 8vo. x, 453pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Store description

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
