Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latin Pronunciation and the Latin Alphabet Within the last twenty or thirty years great progress has been made in the dominion of language as well as in all the departments of the arts and sciences. Before this time, the classical languages were a separate branch of study and of learned investigation, but by the efforts of Prof. F. Bopp and his school, they are now acknowledged to be members of one large family, the organic forms of which mutually supply and explain each other. Most idioms of Italy, even, are shown to be members of one common stock, by the important labors of Aufrecht, Kirchhoff, Mommsen, and other learned men, and the Latin itself, far from being any longer regarded as a mere mongrel composition of Greek and barbarian elements, is now universally admitted, by the learned, to be of the same independent growth among the other Italic dialects, as the Hebrew among the Semitic. Highly important results, moreover, have been attained by the critical examination of Latin texts made by Ritschl, Lachmann, Fleckeisen, and others, while floods of light have been shed on the whole history of the development of the Latin language, by the investigations of Diez, Fuchs, and other philologists, who, starting with the Latin in the latest stages of its existence, have traced from it the beginnings of the modern Romance tongues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Three Pronunciations of Latin For more than a score of years, my time has been spent in the class-room in the Department of Latin. Thousands of young men, within the period named, have received their training, to some extent, at least, at my hands. Many of these, in their labors as teachers, have under their care the ancient languages. Inquiries as to methods of teaching and pronunciation have become so frequent as to call for the publication of an article which might be sent to those interested, and a correspondence be thus avoided, which might otherwise prove burdensome. This state of facts will, in large part, explain the origin and elementary character of this discussion. It is natural, too, that persons engaged in teaching, adopting to some extent the modes of former instructors, should wish to know somewhat more fully the reasons which influenced those instructors in the course they were pleased to pursue. The first edition of The Three Pronunciations of Latin has been exhausted for some months past. The present enlarged edition has been brought out to a very considerable extent, from the influence of teachers and scholars in various parts of our country, whose letters on the subject manifest deep interest in the pronunciation of the Latin tongue. The hope is indulged, therefore, that the work in the form now offered, may not only tend to answer inquiries alluded to above, but also that it may not be unacceptable to teachers in general, who are engaged in giving instructions in this department of study.

It is believed that the following pages will be found to give in simple form the main facts bearing upon this interesting question; and that nothing has been introduced that is either unnecessary or obscure. For those who may wish to pursue their investigations farther after mastering these facts, a bibliography of the subject is given at the end.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Orthoepy: A Plea for the Restoration of the True System of Latin Pronunciation The author of this little Manual was, from 1838 to 1850, professor of the Latin language and litera ture in Madison University. During the latter part of that period, ° he became dissatisfied with the English mode of pronouncing Latin, and convinced that a change, at least so far as to substitute the German for the English vowel sounds, would be, intrinsically, a great improvement. But the fancied inconveniences of a change - inconveniences which experience has taught him were greatly exagger ated - together with a strong repugnance to the notoriety of singularity, presented obstacles which his conviction of its inherent advantages was then unable to surmount.

Download or read book The Correct Pronunciation of Latin According to Roman Usage Classic Reprint written by Michael De Angelis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Correct Pronunciation of Latin According to Roman Usage Setting aside the consideration of accents, which also have great weight in phonetics, it is quite certain that even during the golden period the language was not uniform for the substrati particularly in the cities along the coasts, in the Lazio district and in upper Italy. Along the coasts, the influence of the Greek was strongly felt, in the Lazio the Etruscan, and in upper Italy the Gallic. The same applies to the Italian language. It is spoken well by all the cultured people of the Peninsula, but their pronunciation differs slightly or to a greater degree according to the region to which they belong. For example: the Tuscan pronunciation of Italian is different from the Roman, and this, again, is quite distinct from the Neapolitan or Sicilian. We have the same condition in America where English is pronounced somewhat differently than in England and where the East, West and South have their indie vidual pronunciations and colloquialisms. It was previously stated that the Latin pronunciation closest to the ancient is the Roman and therefore to be preferred. May we Offer the following reasons.

Download or read book The Restored Pronunciation of Greek and Latin written by Edward Vernon Arnold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Restored Pronunciation of Greek and Latin: With Tables and Practical Illustrations As early as 1871 attention was called in authoritative quarters to the unsatisfactory standards of Latin pronunciation in vogue in the United Kingdom, and a definite reform was advocated with the support of such eminent names as those of H. A. J. Munro and Edwin Palmer. This proposal was received with some favour by the English Universities and public schools, with the result that the reformed pronunciation was recognised as a permissible alternative. In practice, however, it was seldom adopted, and appeared only to increase the existing confusion. When the University of Wales was founded in 1893, almost simultaneously with the creation of a great number of schools which provided instruction in Greek and Latin, it felt itself called upon to deal with this question. Whatever excuses might be found in England for indecision in dealing with a long-standing tradition, it could not be expected that a new educational system should be burdened with hesitations on so practical a question: least of all in a country in which the reformed pronunciation of most of the symbols concerned was already familiar in the native language. Accordingly with the support of our colleagues we drew up and published this pamphlet in 1895, the circumstances leading us to make use almost exclusively of the English, French, and Welsh languages to illustrate the pronunciation proposed. The scheme was officially adopted by the University, and has since been in regular use in the Principality: and this experience has shown that.
