Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this useful contribution to a subject of growing importance in contemporary classical studies, Andreas Michalopoulos has collected around 200 etymologies and etymological complexes in Ovid's Metamorphoses . These are listed with brief contextual information, evidence for the etymology from ancient grammarians, discussion of the artistic function of the wordplay, and examples of its use in other works of Ovid and in other Latin poets. The introduction sets out a conceptual framework and succinctly describes etymological techniques particularly typical of (although not unique to) Ovid. As well as adding to the corpus of etymological reference works, this study will increase appreciation both of Ovid's learning and of his wit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis and Formation of Latin Words: With Tables for Analysis, List of Roots, Etc This little book has been prepared to meet a want sug gested in the Latin recitation room, It is designed to assist the student in acquiring a knowledge of the Latin Etymology such as will enable him to account for the forms he meets with, and to analyze Latin words. It was necessary to intro duce a few words from cognate languages in order to explain or illustrate similar forms in Latin. These are not numerous enough to present any formidable obstacle to the student who has not pursued other Ancient Languages than the Latin. Such a student will suffer no disadvantage by the knowledge of a few words from the Sanskrit and the Greek, nor will it render him a less fit candidate for his degree. A table for the analysis of Latin words at the end will afford a practical application of the facts and principles inculcated.

Download or read book An Etymology of Latin and Greek Classic Reprint written by Charles S. Halsey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Etymology of Latin and Greek The following work had its origin in a felt want. Many students of the classical languages, all along the early part of their course, use text-books provided with vocabularies. These vocabularies, from the necessity of their limits, are brief and imperfect, and they enter but little into the subj ect of etymology. Even When afterwards the lexicon is used, the etymology is often studied only for separate words as they occur in reading; and the scattered and fragmentary information given in the lexicons pro duces a corresponding state of knowledge in the mind even of a diligent student. No connected, systematic, or thorough knowledge of etymology is thus acquired. In the grammar something may be done for historical ety mology; but the requirements of other topics in a school grammar must always prevent this subject from receiving there the full treatment Which its importance demands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the beginning of the Author's Preface: The following work had its origin in a felt want. Many students of the classical languages, all along the early part of their course, use text-books provided with vocabularies. These vocabularies, from the necessity of their limits, are brief and imperfect, and they enter but little into the subject of etymology. Even when afterwards the lexicon is used, the etymology is often studied only for separate words as they occur in reading; and the scattered and fragmentary information given in the lexicons produces a corresponding state of knowledge in the mind even of a diligent student. No connected, systematic, or thorough knowledge of etymology is thus acquired. In the grammar something may be done for historical etymology; but the requirements of other topics in a school grammar must always prevent this subject from receiving there the full treatment which its importance demands. There remain the larger works expressly devoted to the subject, nearly all of them in German, excellent when one gets to them and is prepared for them, but by their style and fulness, as well as size and cost, not adapted to the wants of an American school-room or of the ordinary student. They will be studied only by the few, and the benefit to be derived from them will generally come only when the student is far advanced in his course, and after years of study of other works. But historical etymology, that gives the original and central meaning of related words, and, gathering the words themselves together, unites them by the natural bond of their common origin, should not be so long deferred, nor should it be pursued only as a higher range of study. Itself the historical foundation of all the structure of language, certainly it should form a prominent part in the foundation of the course of study. Presented in a simple form, it can be made to furnish a large vocabulary of the most practical words, and these not arranged for comparison in the separate language merely, Greek with Greek, Latin with Latin, but placed side by side, each language throwing light upon the other. A wider comparison enriches with knowledge and enlarges the mind; a deeper comprehension of the laws of progress in language reveals new and interesting truth, arousing curiosity and stimulating to further investigations....
Download or read book Ancient and Medieval Greek Etymology written by Arnaud Zucker and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume on Greek synchronic etymology offers a set of papers evidencing the cultural significance of etymological commitment in ancient and medieval literature. The four sections illustrate the variety of approaches of the same object, which for Greek writers was much more than a technical way of studying language. Contributions focus on the functions of etymology as they were intended by the authors according to their own aims. (1) “Philosophical issues” addresses the theory of etymology and its explanatory power, especially in Plato and in Neoplatonism. (2) “Linguistic issues” discusses various etymologizing techniques and the status of etymology, which was criticized and openly rejected by some authors. (3) “Poetical practices of etymology” investigates the ubiquitous presence of etymological reflections in learned poetry, whatever the genre, didactic, aetiological or epic. (4) “Etymology and word-plays” addresses the vexed question of the limit between a mere pun and a real etymological explanation, which is more than once difficult to establish. The wide range of genres and authors and the interplay between theoretical reflection and applied practice shows clearly the importance of etymology in Greek thought.
