"In the single volume before 

 "" us it is really possible for the 



first time to obtain a conspectus 

 of almost all that is definitely 

 known about Roman environ- 

 ment, life, and thought — The 

 Book is a thesaurus of sane 

 learning in a readable form. 

 Varro or Pliny or St Isidore of 

 Seville would have studied it 

 with a growing wonder and en- 

 lightenment ; for not Rome only, 

 but the history of all knowledge 

 about Rome, is here recalled to 

 its first beginnings." — Times 



"Every subject which is in 

 any wayconnected with the study 

 of Italy, of its history, its people, 

 its laws, its art, and its literature 

 is here discussed by some com- 

 petent authority. The informa- 

 tion given is up to date, and is 

 offered for the most part as fully 

 as the natural limits of so com- 

 prehensive a work allow.. ..As a 

 book of reference the volume will 

 be of the highest value." — 



Westminster Gazette 



"This volume is a complete 

 cyclopaedia of Roman studies ; 

 and in nearly 900 pages and half 

 a million words contains the 

 carefully adjusted result of re- 

 cent inquiries into every depart- 

 ment of Latin lore. It is, in a 

 very remarkable degree, accu- 

 rate, complete and abreast of 

 modern discovery ; and we con- 

 gratulate the University, the 

 contributors, and the editor on 

 the signal success of an ambitious 

 project." — Saturday Review 



Private portrait (age of Gallienus) 



Quantity and Accent in the Pronunciation of Latin. By 



F. W. WeSTAWAY. Crown 8vo. pp. xvi -(- 1 1 2. 3^-. net. 

 "This book," says The Athenaeum, "should be read and kept for 

 reference by all teachers of Latin." 



The author makes a spirited attack upon "the remnant of the old school" 

 which still clings to its "duU'sy dome'um " {dtilce domiiin) and its "nice-eye 

 pry-us" {iiisi priUs) and addresses his book (i) to private students who desire 

 to learn to pronounce and to read Latin correctly, and (2) to those who feel 

 that their acquired pronunciation needs overhauling.
