Book Description
Excerpt from Nonius Marcellus' Dictionary of Republican Latin Of the three large Latin Dictionaries or Encyclopaedias which have been transmitted from ancient to modern times, (1) Festus' Epitome of Verrius Flaccus 'De Verborum Significatu, ' (2) Nonius Marcellus 'de Compendiosa Doctrina, ' (3) the 'Etymologiae' of Isidore, the second excels in its wealth of quotations from the literature of the Republic. Most of what has been preserved of the lost Republican writers, such as Accius the tragedian, Lucilius the satirist, Sisenna the historian, we owe to the quotations with which Nonius has illustrated the words of his Dictionary. Of Nonius himself little is known. From various indications it has been inferred that he lived in the fourth or fifth century A.D., and was a dignitary in the small town of Thubursicum in North Africa. He published a volume of letters 'On the Neglect of Study, ' from which he quotes a pompous sentence in illustration of the word meridies (page 45 of Mercier's edition). Some of his modern critics accuse him of an amount of ignorance that is hardly conceivable. Without going so far, we may safely regard him as a man of very limited learning, a compiler rather than a researcher. His dictionary can hardly have belonged to anything but the 'scissors and paste' class. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
